The most essential gifts for a perfect summer in Larimer County

24edited

There’s nothing worse than trying to find a gift for someone and not knowing what to get them.

To take the guesswork out of gift buying, we’ve found practical and helpful gifts for any occasion, sorted by theme to help find everything you are looking for.

Top 5 “Summer Essentials” Gifts

1) Neutrally Buoyant Water Ball
For your next swimming pool game, toss around a Watermelon... Ball. Modeled after a real-life watermelon, this rubber ball can be dribbled, kicked, passed, and bounced—all under water. Fill it up with water and a little bit of air to make it neutrally buoyant—its density will match that of the surrounding water, so it doesn’t sink or float. Instead, it stays suspended in the H2O.

2) Small Garden Koi - Set of 3

3) Hummingbird Swing
A hummingbird swing gives the tiny birds a perfectly-sized place to perch. Hang it close to a feeder or nectar-rich flowering plant—and in a good viewing spot—to enjoy watching these beautiful birds in action.

4) Second-Skin Extra Long Garden Gloves
These extra long gardening gloves keep your hands and arms protected from sun, soil, oils and scratches. With varying lengths and added padding, Foxgloves protect hands and arms (even all the way up the elbow) against sun, soil and more, keeping busy hands safe.

5) Butterfly Biome Habitat and Feeder
Butterflies make great guests. Host them in this butterfly habitat and they’ll help the local ecosystem. It’s also a safe haven for other beneficial insects like hoverflies, bees, wasps, lacewings, and ladybugs in the colder months. Made from slow-seasoned timber wood and water-based paint, this home is great for the insects, the environment, and your backyard.
