A few months ago we introduced the latest in the Keepsake Kitchen Diary series – a Baking Edition! I just love this version to hold all of your sweet, pastries, cakes, pies, cookies and, of course, the memories and stories that go with them. You can read all about the Baking Edition here.

With all the Baking diaries going out as holiday gifts, I thought I would share some fun gifting ideas. These pairings would make a super sweet gift plus a lovely presentation! Who doesn’t love to receive a gift with extra special packaging?

Tie on a Baking Themed Ornament:

I just love ornaments as package toppers & tie-ons. It’s a simple way to really spruce up your wrapping and such a nice extra keepsake for the recipient. I rounded up some of my favorite ornaments that would be perfect pairings to go with the Baking Keepsake Kitchen Diary (or any of the Kitchen Diaries, really!)

Pink Kitchenaid Mixer. I’ve had this ornament for years and it’s one of my favorites. Although I couldn’t find the original, this one is similar and just as cute!

Croissant. This is the first ornament I put on the tree this year! Originally from Anthropologie, but it appears to be sold out. Find a similar one here.

French Baguette – so realistic looking!

This Retro Fridge – how cute and I love the mint color.

Chocolate chip cookies! Such pretty details and there’s chocolate chip illustrations featured in the baking diary.

Pumpkin Pie! That glitter whip is darling.

These two ornaments in the cake domes are adorable!! Gah! I love them both and they work so well with the illustrations on the diary.

A sweet rolling pin and festive with the red handles for holiday packages. 

Pair it with a Meal Planner Pad:

Each Kitchen Diary has a meal planner pad that has been specifically designed to coordinate. This is the pad that coordinates with the Baking Diary!

Baking-Themed Wrapping Paper:

You guys! This paper is STUNNING! Truly I just want to frame it and hang in my kitchen. It has a French Bakery theme and the prettiest colors. It would also be cute for wrapping this Boulangerie print…or this one! 

The wrapping is sold as individual sheets available at Paper Source here.

I hope you enjoyed these ideas and found a little inspiration for your Kitchen Diary gift-giving!
