It’s the most wonderful time of the year; for many people, that means celebrating the holidays with friends and family. It also means a lot of added stress, more shopping lists, kids out of school, and shorter days. All of these additions can leave you feeling overwhelmed and make shopping for gifts for those on your nice list seem difficult. If you need some inspiration and to find the perfect gift for every occasion, not just the holidays, keep reading to find a gift for everyone on your list.
Reusable Water Bottle
While this may seem like a boring and practical gift, everyone will benefit from a reusable water bottle and use it daily. When we have a headache, we’re tired or even stressed out; it’s likely because we’re dehydrated. We all know how much water we are supposed to drink every day, but few of us do it. Giving the gift of a high-end reusable water bottle, preferably in stainless steel, is an easy way to show someone you care about their well-being and the planet. More people than ever are shopping sustainably, and this is the perfect gift waiting under the tree.
Candles Set
One of the quickest and easiest ways to get in the holiday spirit is through our sense of smell. Scent can powerfully transport us back to our childhood holiday seasons and bring on a sense of nostalgia, magic, and traditions. By giving the gift of beautiful candles set, you can help the recipient get in that Holly Jolly Spirit and add coziness to their home. Make sure you purchase candles scented with non-toxic ingredients and pay attention to packaging; you want to give a beautiful set of candles the recipient will treasure all through the new year.
Smart Devices
We live in a world of convenience like society has never known. Smart devices make the perfect present if you’re shopping for someone late to the smart home party. Not only do they come in sleek modern designs that will match anyone’s home aesthetic, but the convenience of simplifying their lives is also an absolute game-changer. You can opt for a smartwatch, a smart speaker system, or anywhere in between. If they’ve never used smart home devices, be prepared to give them a tutorial after they unwrap this thoughtful gift.
Sheet Sets
We spend 1/3 of our lives sleeping, but sleep doesn’t come easily for many people. While insomnia is rare, around half of American adults report difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. While the gift of a new mattress is a splurge most people’s holiday budget won’t allow, a luxurious sheet set can make all the difference to someone getting enough shut-eye. Opt for natural textiles like 100% cotton, silk, or linen. Not only are these fabrics sustainable, but they also breathe, which helps people from getting too hot during the night. They’ll enter the new year with sweet dreams with the gift of a beautiful new set of sheets.
Fine Jewelry
Fine jewelry is always the perfect present if you’re searching for a last-minute gift and don’t mind splurging. While it’s true that diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend, even a simple gold chain or set of pearl earrings make the perfect Christmas statement. It can be tempting to purchase jewelry in your preferred style, but you must consider the recipient’s style. Simple minimal pieces of fine jewelry like diamond studs or small gold hoops can be worn by everyone with any outfit choice. These small pieces fit easily into a stocking and make a jaw-dropping surprise.
Curated Gift Baskets
Gift baskets are iconic holiday gifts for a reason; you can perfectly tailor them to the recipient’s likes and needs. Perhaps you’re shopping for someone often stressed out, and a pampering self-care basket full of lotions, at-home treatments, and a cozy robe would be the perfect present. Maybe someone on your list loves home cooking; a basket with a new knife set, seasonings, and an apron is an easy option. The sky’s the limit for what you can put in the basket, but thoughtful gifts like this show you care about their interests and found items they would enjoy using.
The gift options mentioned above will be popular and well-received no matter who you’re shopping for. Don’t let coming up with the perfect gift add to your to-do list this year. Happy Holidays!
