Build a stay-home gift around the shirt
A homebody gift works best when it gives them a reason to stay in. The shirt sets the theme, and one small extra makes it feel considered. A few pairings that follow the designs above:
With SNOWED IN AND LOVING IT, add their favorite hot chocolate or tea and a pair of thick socks. With SNACKS, BLANKET, AND THE BIG SCREEN, add a bag of good popcorn and a handwritten list of five movies you think they have not seen. With BUT FIRST, WATER MY PLANTS, add a cutting from one of your own plants in a small jar. With TURN IT UP LOUDER, add a playlist you made for them, with a short note about why each song is on it. With MERRY GRUMPMAS TO ALL, add a handwritten note excusing them from one holiday event of their choice.
None of these extras cost much, and all of them say more than a gift card.
Fit for lounging
Homebodies wear their favorite shirts hard: on the couch, to bed, on a slow Sunday. The tees here are unisex with a regular fit, measured flat at 18 inches across the chest for an S, adding two inches per size up to 28 inches for a 3XL. Body length runs from 28 to 33 inches.
If they like their lounge clothes roomy, choose one size up from what they usually wear. If you can, measure a shirt they already love, flat from armpit to armpit, and pick the closest size on the chart. We cannot take returns for size because every shirt is printed to order, so it is worth getting right.
Solid colors are 100% combed and ring-spun cotton, and heather colors are cotton and polyester blends. Wash cold inside out and tumble dry low to keep the print looking sharp.
When to order
Every shirt is printed after you order, which takes 2 to 5 business days, then spends 3 to 7 business days in transit to a US address. For delivery by December 24, order by Tuesday, December 8. Shipping is $4.99 per order and free on orders over $60, which means three shirts, a nice option if two homebodies share a couch.
Questions
- Are these shirts only for the holidays?
- No. Only SNOWED IN AND LOVING IT and MERRY GRUMPMAS TO ALL are winter-themed. The movie night, houseplant, and music shirts work all year.
- Which colors work best for lounging?
- Darker colors like navy, black, and charcoal hide a coffee spill on a slow morning, while natural and heather dust are softer in tone. Each product page lists its colors, and the ink is matched to every shirt color so the text stays easy to read.
- Can I send it as a gift with a message?
- Yes. Use their address at checkout and add an optional gift message, which is printed on the packing slip. We ship to US addresses only.
- What if the print arrives damaged?
- Email us within 30 days of delivery with a photo and your order number, and we replace it free or refund it.
The best gift for a homebody is permission to stay home. Pick the shirt that matches how they like to spend a quiet evening, and let it do the talking.
