Christmas is a time for giving.
Others give their time, effort, and love, and that’s great.
However, if you want to show affection through something more tangible yet budget-friendly, here are several ideas for Christmas gifts you can get your loved ones. (Or even yourself!)
Chocolates
First, you can never go wrong with chocolates.
Of course, sweets are among the most ideal Christmas gift ideas for young children in your family.
Do make sure to limit their intake so they don’t get a sugar crash or develop cavities.
Handmade Resin Bookmarks
Do you know anyone who’s a massive bookworm? Or perhaps you enjoy reading books yourself (not including work-related stuff).
If so, why not try resin bookmarks instead of the usual paper or cardboard ones?
They’re more durable and will last longer without getting torn or bent.
What’s more, you can find shops that offer pretty—even customized—designs at a fair price!
Handmade Soap
While we’re on the topic of handmade gifts, why not give your loved ones some homemade soap?
They often come in varying scents, so you’re sure to find something for everyone.
Colored Glass Straws
Want to do your civic duty of saving the Earth but dislike paper straws?
After all, paper straws tend to get soggy, rendering them useless after ten minutes or so.
Buy glass straws!
You can choose from clear to colored ones—some even have flowers and butterflies on them.
If you or your loved ones want to take aesthetically pleasing photos while sipping your coffee, these are a great option.
Face Masks
No, not the type of face mask you’re thinking of. (Although, you might want to stock up as there’s an increasing number of Covid patients these days.)
We’re talking about those Korean face masks. If you know someone who enjoys indulging in a self-care routine now and then, these would be a great gift!
They’ll benefit from regular use as their skin becomes softer and brighter. And so can you.
Notebooks or Journals
One of the most popular Christmas gifts is notebooks.
These journals are well-suited for any aspiring writer – or anyone who has a lot of thoughts they need to put into writing.
As a remote worker, notebooks and journals are your best friends too!
They’re perfect for writing down any critical updates or crucial notes during meetings—or just your thoughts throughout the workday.
Moon Lamp
Afraid of the dark but find fluorescent lighting too harsh?
Try buying a moon lamp!
These lamps are another affordable gift and will provide softer lighting—some even allow for a color change. Plus, they’re cute too!
Potted Succulents
They say plants are now the new pets.
If you or your loved ones agree (and happen to have green thumbs), then a potted succulent is your best choice.
They’re hardy types of plants and can survive a variety of conditions—perfect for first-time plantitas or plantitos.
Travel Pouch
If you know someone who constantly travels (or perhaps, you’re a digital nomad yourself), a travel pouch can make your life easier.
With a travel organizer, you can have all your essentials all in one place.
Streaming Subscriptions
Of course, if you or your loved ones enjoy watching TV in your spare time, subscriptions to popular streaming sites are top gift ideas.
These give you access to an extensive catalog of movies and series.
Furthermore, staying at home and watching films together can be a wonderful way to spend time with loved ones.
Bonus: Hand Sanitizer
Lastly, show your care towards your loved ones by giving them a hand sanitizer.
It’s useful for keeping hands clean and colds at bay, especially with the rising cases of people getting sick again.
A Time for Gift-Giving
You don’t have to burn a hole through your pockets this holiday season.

As they say, it’s the thought that counts.
