From finds under $50 to items you might want to splurge on, Oprah celebrates 30 years of her “Favorite Things” with a vast list of gifts for the entire family.
Need a real signal that the holiday season is here? Oprah’s Favorite Things list for 2026 has arrived! While there are dozens of items to choose from, ranging from splurgable items to stocking stuffers and items for the kids, the full list at Oprah Daily features 79 different items to choose from, whether you’re purchasing something for ones that you love or giving yourself a little treat to put under the Christmas tree.
The origins of “Favorite Things” date back to 1996, when Oprah purchased a pair of plaid pajamas for herself and her staff. A producer on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” asked her, “Why don’t you do this for the whole audience?” Thus, “Oprah’s Favorite Things” was born.
“Thank you for making Favorite Things a part of your holidays for the past 30 years,” Oprah said in a video shared on social media. “Your love for this tradition has made it one of my favorite holiday joys. Here’s to another season of being generous, of having gratitude and giving from your heart.”
