You want to get your bestie a gift, but you’re still waiting for their life-altering epic journey to begin? Samwise Gamgee has suggestions.

What do you get for the Hobbit who has everything? Your friend is cozy in their little hobbit hole, with plenty of kindling for the fire and enough pipe weed and snacks to last the winter. If you’re struggling to find the right gift for your favorite Hobbit, why not ask the guy who is the bestest Hobbit BFF of all time?

Keep Nosey Neighbors at Bay

Nothing like a firm boundary when it comes to nosey neighbors sniffing around all of your things! Help your best pal politely (but firmly) let everyone know when they’re not feeling sociable and wish to be left alone.


Secretly Give Them the One Ring

There’s nothing as innocuous as the gift of a candle. Well, it beats stealing your gift from a riddle-spitting cave creature anyway. This candle is unscented, which is awesome for friends with scent sensitivity. And as the wax is burned, a secret is revealed – The One Ring is waiting.


Get Your Hobbit Pal a New Pipe

If your friend has some fool-of-a-Took in their blood, a long wooden pipe is a very fantastical gift while still potentially being useful. If you love your BFF’s fireside stories and you think they’d look cool gesticulating with this pipe in hand, your friend might be a Hobbit.


Keep Your Hobbit Friend Warm

Spoken truthfully from a cozy person, you can never have enough blankets. And for my money, this is the best way to travel Middle-Earth without having to change out of my sweat pants.


Get Your Friend Another Little Friend

Your feelings of jealousy are valid.


Finally, Give the Gift of Starchy Goodness

Boil ’em, mash ’em, stick ’em in a stew! It doesn’t matter how you prepare them, potatoes are delicious, and are always an excellent gift for any Hobbit
