Buying Christmas Gifts for Women

Christmas Gifts for Women

Buying a Christmas gift, Mothers Day gift, or birthday gift for the women in your life might be a bit intimidating. Because we love the moms, sisters, girlfriends, best friends, amazing coworkers, mentors, and grandmas in our lives, it’s natural to want the best for them—including the best gifts.

But don’t worry—it’s not difficult to come up with great Christmas gift ideas for women. With a little thought and some personalization, your consideration will express how important she is to you.

What Are Some of The Best Gift Ideas for Women?

Getting the best gift for a woman in your life may need you to put some time and thought into it. First, make a list of things that she loves, things she loves to have around her, and things she loves to do.

Someone might like having long candle-lit bubble baths or regularly having pampering evenings. Someone else might enjoy painting or creating artwork from interesting objects that she finds around town.

Once you have a list of things she likes, write down ideas of items she might use when doing those things. For example, the person who loves to pamper herself might love a thick, fluffy bath towel, dressing gown, or cozy slippers—a bonus if they have her initials or monogram embroidered. Or she could appreciate a good bottle of wine and nice wine glasses to enjoy in the bath.

A woman who likes to paint or create art might appreciate new paintbrushes, canvasses, or an easel for Christmas. She could also love an interesting item you picked up at a flea market that she can use in one of her artworks.

An ideal gift should show the recipient that you put thought and effort into deciding what to get them.

(Here are a few more ideas for gifts for women, especially for women who have everything).

Are Women Easy to Shop For?

Women are actually very easy to shop for. All you need to do is put some time and effort into what you get her.

The closer your relationship is, the more you can spend—but gifts between $20 and $50 can go a long way. It’s more about the impact than the price tag, so think about something that says “Have fun!” and takes the pressure off a long day of work. Get her something fun and frivolous for Christmas—something she might not spend money on by herself but would love to have.

Look beyond sales and use your imagination to come up with a considerate gift. For example, cozy socks, a personal heater, or our incredible Snuggle Suit would be great for the woman in your life who’s always cold. Those are great at the office or at home!

However, if you’re buying her a gift she’ll use regularly, be thoughtful. She may need a new iron, but does not mean she will feel spoiled and adored if you buy her a new iron for her birthday. All that will do is remind her of all the laundry piling up in the other room.

How Much Money Should I Spend on A Gift for A Woman in My Life?

The amount of money you spend on a thoughtful gift for a woman in your life depends on how long you have known each other, your relationship, your budget, and even the occasion. A birthday gift might be a reason to splurge ($50 or $100) while even a few dollars or a no-cost note can result in an invaluable “I’m thinking of you” gift. All told, you don't need to break the bank to get a unique and memorable Christmas gift for the woman in your life.

What Do Women Appreciate Most?

Women love gifts that are sentimental or that show you put some thought into them. This could be a homemade gift, something you found in a store, a gift card, a personalized Christmas mug, some of her favorite lip balm, or even an experience like a romantic evening for two.

What Can I Make as A Gift for A Woman?

Most people want to know that they are being seen and heard. That someone pays attention to them, to what they are saying, and to what they need. Personalized gifts and homemade gifts show someone that you put thought, time, and effort into creating something special for them.

When you make a gift for a woman, it will be appreciated no matter what it is. Making something elaborate or extravagant could be tempting, but it is not necessary. Consider making something that harnesses one of your talents. You could write her a song, draw a picture, or make a piece of jewelry. All of these are great Christmas gifts for girlfriends.

Women love feeling taken care of, and many women will appreciate a home-cooked meal, some homemade bread, or other treats like fudge or cookies. Receiving food – especially food made by you will make her feel cherished and special.

What Kind of Treats Should I Include in a Gift Basket?

Food gifts for Christmas are almost always a hit. The kind of treats that you should put in a gift basket for a woman depends on what she likes. Someone with a sweet tooth might like chocolate, fudge, pastries, and tarts. A woman who prefers savory things might enjoy a gift box filled with a variety of cheeses with crackers, popcorn, and salted nuts.

Try to look for something that is out of the ordinary, like craft food items with interesting mixes of flavors or unique ways of presenting the same old stuff.
