Weed-themed presents have historically fallen into gag gift territory, and while I love a corny moment, it’s refreshing to see that artists and designers are starting to treat cannabis with a little reverence as a way to better reflect the relationships that people have with this plant. As the editor-in-chief of Broccoli magazine, I know there’s tremendous diversity among weed lovers—there is no single “type” of cannabis enthusiast, which is why it’s so exciting to see cannabis-themed items that appeal to our other sensibilities and interests. Personally, I find that weed is a vector for other things—it propels me into an expansive, creative mindset. I love being able to represent that aspect of my relationship to weed through objects, scents, books, and anything beautiful and fun that taps into my senses and encourages an engaging experience.
You won’t find any THC or CBD in this guide, because I believe that cannabis appreciation shouldn’t be limited to consumption. As the plant continues its path to normalization, it opens up a vast potential for expression that connects weed to other creative parts of life. Below, you’ll find weedy gift ideas for weed people who are into art, food, design, nature, literature, fashion, decor, and more.
1. A beautiful bong
The ancient art of ceramics and smoking come together with Minh Le Studio’s bongs, made by a fifth generation ceramicist from Vietnam, now based in Los Angeles.
2. A flower-inspired coffee table book
The THC-producing part of the cannabis plant is the flower, and A Weed is a Flower celebrates weed and flowers of all kinds through artful cannabis photography. This book resonates with anyone who thinks the cannabis plant deserves to be seen through a lens of beauty and awe.
3. A weedy tote bag
Sure, you have a million tote bags, but do you have a weed tote bag? Sundae School’s playful take on cannabis fashion is a chill entry point into the world of cannabis. If you’re lucky enough to live in California, fill the tote with their mochi gummy edibles prior to gifting (but save a couple for yourself).
4. A sneaky water bottle
Cannabis has at least 1,200 code names, making it possible for people to communicate about their favorite plant on the sly. This Studio A-OK water bottle featuring the Devil’s Lettuce is perfect for anyone who likes to shop at the farmer’s market after a bong rip.
5. A jacket with a message
Women-owned businesses need representation in the world of cannabis, and this Buy Weed From Women jacket is a perfect double-whammy for your stylish friends who care about equity and equality. Bonus points if you give the jacket with a copy of Black Girl Call Home, written by the By Weed From Women founder, Jasmine Mans.
6. A fragrant note
A candle for when getting stoned, stoned on the range.
7. A design-forward look at weed
Explore the current cannabis scene through the lens of brand and packaging design, with founder interviews and bonus essays on weed history throughout.
8. A bedazzled leaf
Fashion and cannabis are only just starting to get to know one another, and this collaborative rhinestone pin from Stevie and Collina Strada is a match made in stoner heaven.
9. A culinary device
For adventures in the kitchen, Ardent’s home infusing device makes it possible to infuse cannabis oils and butters at home. Pair with a copy of The Art of Weed Butter, by Mennlay Golokeh Aggrey, for tasty recipes that will work with (or without) infusions.
10. A gardening guide
Cannabis cultivation (hemp included) is gaining popularity, and this photo-heavy guide will inspire anyone with a remotely green thumb to give growing their own a shot.
11. A cozy moment
Textile designer Katherine Plumb created the subtle cannabis-inspired art for this woven blanket for Broccoli, making it easy to level up couch potato mode from seasonal depression to seasonal expression.
12. A fancy rolling paper
Dainty and delicate, these rose-patterned rolling papers could inspire an entire cannabis-themed cottagecore aesthetic.
13. A necessary tool
Lighters are destined to be lost. Could Chen Chen Kai Williams have the solution? Protect your mini Bic lighter in style with this KARA collaborative keychain.
14. A chic way to smoke
A glass joint holder is a clever multipurpose tool: aside from being dainty and chic, it’s also a great way to avoid the lingering aroma of burnt crutch paper on your fingertips.
15. A special delivery
Say it with flowers, and more flowers. Send a dried or fresh floral arrangement from Lovepot, including dried CBD buds.
16. A surprising plant
What if weed could be a houseplant? Pot Plant’s faux cannabis plants make it possible to get the look without the responsibility, or the fragrant leaves. An ideal gift for the person whose green thumb begins and ends with their ability to roll a perfect joint.
