With the holiday season right around the corner, it can sometimes be hard to think of the perfect gift for loved ones. Gifts are subjective, they can require a lot of thought, can be last minute, could or could not be expensive and do not always get the desired reaction when being opened. This holiday gift guide will provide gift ideas and will help with the insecurities of gift-giving.

Knit Blankets
During these cold months, it is essential to have a warm go-to blanket that is comfy and cute. Knit blankets are blankets with large knitting and can vary in many different colors. What is also great about them is that they are for any age or gender. This is a great gift because it can be useful, and it’s guaranteed to be a fan favorite. Amazon has a wide variety of knit blankets, and the best part is that they are affordable.

Candles

Who does not love a candle that has their favorite scent? Holiday candles can be great gifts or even stocking stuffers. Great scents for this time of year are Peppermint Stick, Pine, Gingerbread and Cinnamon. Stores like TJ Maxx and Marshalls have an abundant assortment of seasonal scents for a last-minute gift. Anthropologie has a perfect Christmas candle, made by Susannah Garrod, that is perfect for this season’s festivities.

Apple Products
Like many other years, Apple products are undeniably the most popular gifts during the holiday season. Products like Apple Watches, the newest iPhone and iPads are usually at the top of kids’ wish lists. Although the price can be costly, this gift ceases to disappoint. With the new iPhone 13 out and in stores, this just adds to the demand for Apple products. If the price is not a hassle, this can be a great holiday gift.

Converse
With the brand’s new styles and colors, Converse is a great gift for absolutely anyone. When going out in public, it is the new norm to see many people wearing the stylish brand Converse. Converse’s prices have a wide range so it can be easy to find something affordable. Additionally, Converse also has a customizable section where people can create their own shoes.

Puffer Coats
Puffer coats are the perfect gift because they are useful and stylish. Puffer coats can be worn by any gender and in any style. Brands like The North Face and Misguided have endless styles of unique puffer coats. One con about this gift is that it might be on the expensive side because of the long-lasting quality. Nonetheless, it is an investment that is worth it because these coats will last for many years.

Jeans
The simple, yet necessary gift. Everyone needs a pair of new jeans, and the holiday season is the perfect time to ask for them. With a wide range of styles like mom jeans, skinny, wide leg, bell bottom and more, there is a perfect pair of jeans for anyone. Brands like American Eagle, Brandy Melville and Levis have jeans of amazing quality. Nothing is better than capturing memories that will last. A disposable camera is a camera that takes pictures that can be developed after the camera runs out of film. A disposable camera is unique because the photos cannot be seen until the film is developed. This can be a fun experience for someone who is just used to taking photos on a regular phone. A disposable camera can even be in a stocking stuffer because of its cheapness and size. This gift can be very sentimental and special to someone who loves to capture the moment.

Giving Back
With all of these gift ideas, let’s not forget that this holiday season is not just about getting, it is also about giving. There are many ways to give back like donating to charities, helping out at local soup kitchens and donating food. An almost effortless way of giving back this season is taking old or unused clothes to Goodwill or Salvation Army. It doesn’t take much to help out your local community. So, this holiday season, whether material or not, do not forget to give gifts that bring holiday cheer.
