Even though Thanksgiving hasn't yet passed, you'd be wise to get a jump on your holiday shopping. But where to start? GiftingMap can help you find exactly the right gift for the hard-to-shop-for lady (or ladies) in your life. 

The shopping site that's curated by CultureMap has already combed through the oversaturated retail market to bring you the best giftable items, many of which have ties to the Lone Star State. Check out a few of our favorite items below, then shop the rest of the collection online.

Baccarat
It's the name in crystal and has been turning out coveted glassware, barware, candlesticks, vases, and decorative objects of the highest craftsmanship since 1764. For anyone who wants to feel like royalty, deliver a pair of Champagne flutes or an elegant decanter for spirits.

Corkcicle
Whether she's an athlete or just a gal on the go, these triple-insulated canteens and tumblers are a chic replacement for disposable water bottles. Designed to keep drinks either ice cold or piping hot, they're ideal for morning coffee or evening margaritas.

Huichol Love
This special collection of jewelry is hand-beaded by the Huichol people in the Sierra Madre mountains of Mexico and finished in the company's Austin and Mexico studios. Quantities of these exquisite earrings, bracelets, and necklaces will be limited on GiftingMap, so snatch them up as soon as you can.

Juliska
This elegant home goods brand started in 2001 with a small collection of mouth-blown Bohemian glasses and today encompasses everything from dinnerware to sconces. As its founder is fond of saying, "no one lingers wistfully over a paper plate," and hostesses who deserve the most will be delighted with any of its tableware.

Sugarfina
Gummy candies made from rosé and Champagne? Sign us up. A sweet treat from this purveyor of luxury candy is always an appropriate gift for a coworker or anyone else who brightens up your day.
