55 Novelty Gift Ideas

From Floating Thunder Cloud Lamps to Cannabis Cologne Collections

— December 23, 2017 — Unique
These novelty gifts are ideal for friends and family members who enjoy quirky products that aren't easily found.

One bizarre product that's included is the hand soap that's made by an Etsy shop called Imaginary Animal. Rather than using a traditional oval or rectangle shape for its bars, the company carves its offerings into the shape of tiny human hands. The soaps are made from natural vegetable glycerin and have the subtle scent of oatmeal, milk, and honey.

Another novelty item that's featured is the 'Grain Belt Dual Pour Can Topper.' Intended for couples, the cap allows consumers to equally split a can of beer between them in the most efficient way possible. Although not entirely necessary, the cap prevents any mess from occurring and makes sharing a little easier.
