Let’s face it. It has been a stressful year for everyone. We could all use more ways to relax. As a tiny house owner, simple living has taught me to have a deep appreciation for slowing down and being more present—helps with stress-reduction. And that’s why I’m intrigued by the reusable Buddha Board.

Fortunately, this water painting board comes in compact sizes, making it one of the perfect artistic gifts for tiny house owners.

Here are a few ideas of subsriptions if you’re wondering what to buy a tiny house owner:
Living in a tiny home means you don't have a lot of space, and no space to lug around a bunch of books.
I'm addicted to my Kindle Paperwhite for ease of use and portability, plus, I'll never be without a book! A Kindle can be connected to a hotspot signal to download a new book on the go.
Plus, the Kindle Paperwhite, which I own, is backlit and can be read anywhere without disturbing a sleeping partner. I go everywhere with my Kindle, and hope I never have to go without!
The Kindle Paperwhite is definitely one of our favorite gifts for tiny house owners.
A trusty headlamp is a tiny house staple. Trust me. In our tiny home, we have two hanging by our front door.
These best gifts for tiny house owners come in handy for all kinds of tiny living situations, like when the power unexpectedly goes out because the solar batteries drained or when switching propane tanks at night.
This handy gift is sure to be well-appreciated. Choose from a wide variety of headlamps, all under $50 and many under $25.
One amazing RV organization tip is to use the space underneath your bed for storage! My parents use the space underneath their bed for wine bottles and other kitchen utensils they don't use very often.
These vacuum bags zip your clothes up nice and tight when you're not wearing them. This is a great way to store seasonal clothes or squishy items you don't use quite as often.
You'll get five medium-size bags to help organize your RV bedroom - each bag can fit 8-10 sweaters. You can also use them to store pillows, towels, and anything else soft you can think of.
The choice to live tiny is often motivated by a desire to reduce one’s environmental footprint by consciously simplifying both home size and consumption habits.
So it’s no surprise that a large number of tiny house dwellers try to live a zero-waste lifestyle. That’s why beeswax food wraps are such a wonderful gift for tiny home owners.
In place of plastic wrap or plastic sandwich bags, use this reusable natural alternative to cover a bowl or wrap-up a snack to-go.
When the beeswax gives out after numerous uses, no need to throw away. It’s compostable or can be used as a fire starter for a tiny wood stove.
Here’s a wonderful gift for a tiny home owner who values healthy eating and reducing their carbon footprint. Reusable produce bags eliminate the need for plastic shopping bags with a durable design that can stretch to fit a wide variety of items.
They double as adorable hanging food storage too.
Off-grid tiny house dwellers constantly monitor their power consumption. It’s a necessity when dependent on solar power.
Any opportunity to reduce usage, and consequently the draw on the battery bank, is always welcome. Portable power stations like this Jackery 160 can power and quickly charge smart devices of all kinds, from phones to tablets, which is why it landed on our list of best gifts for tiny house owners.
A little extra power can go a long way!
digital picture frame is a perfect way for a tiny house dweller to display their most prized photos. This is especially great at a time when photo albums seem to be going by the wayside, as everything is taken in digital.
A digital picture frame doesn’t take up much space but is a wonderful way to cherish memories. And latest models come with an app that allows you to share photos back and forth with loved ones easily!
Stasher bags are amazing for any tiny lifestyle, as they solve the problem of using throwaway ziplocs.
These Stasher reusable bags fix that problem, and I have several of them in my campervan. Stasher bags are made of silicone and can be frozen and boiled, although we haven't tried that yet.
