Christmas Day is December 25, 2021. What to get for Christmas, or any holiday you’re celebrating during the
winter season? That’s a question many of us ask as we’re making our lists,
checking them twice, and thinking about the presents we can’t wait to
give—and receive. No matter who you’re shopping for this season, you’ll
want to start early. Avoiding crowded stores is essential, and if you’re
shopping online, you want to leave plenty of time for your gifts to
arrive. That way, you can wrap them up beautifully well before the big
day. Here are some ideas for how to find that perfect gift for everyone on
your list.
For the Big Day
Show your nearest and dearest how well you know them by choosing a gift
they’ll adore. Explore top gifts and trending items—such as weighted
blankets for a good night’s sleep, Bala Bangles for home workouts, or chic
pyjamas to upgrade their work-from-home wardrobe. Think about your
recipients’ passions, and perhaps their newfound hobbies, and try shopping
by interest. Whether they love wellness and self-care,food,fashion,tea
and coffee,sports , and so much more, you can scoop up the perfect gift
that’s sure to make them smile this season.
For the Reader
A book makes the perfect gift. That’s because you really need to know your
recipient in order to pick out a book they’ll adore. Explore Indigo’s best
books of 2020 to find a curated list of titles sure to please every type
of reader. Browse the stacks virtually or in-store and find new releases
from their favourite authors,Christmas books,boxed sets, and more.
Whether they love thrillers, historical fiction, memoirs, cookbooks, or
contemporary fiction, wrap them up a great new read.
Secret Santa Gifts
Since we can’t gather in person, try a virtual Secret Santa. If you’re
playing White Elephant-style, the best Secret Santa gifts are real
crowd-pleasers that anyone would love to receive—like a mug filled with
sweet treats, a cozy pair of reading socks, or a cool little gadget they
didn’t even know they needed. Since most groups set a budget, explore
Secret Santa gifts under $25 or think about pairing a gift card with
something homemade. Now would be the perfect time to show off that new
skill you mastered while staying home. Many Secret Santa gift ideas also
double as perfect stocking stuffers!
The Perfect Gifts for You
From holiday baking to decorating and entertaining, there’s a lot going on
in your home this season. Even though the holiday season looks and feels a
lot different, the perfect gift for you might be looking for ways to
embrace traditions, while discovering new ones. When it comes to decor,
mix family treasures—such as ornaments—with new, modern pieces for added
flair. If cookies are a must-have in December, try a few new recipes and
mix them up with holiday baking classics, like linzers and gingerbread.
Keep your holiday entertaining simple and up the ante with festive, yet
simple accents on your table—like a showstopping platter or sparkly new
glassware. For 2020, it’s all about learning how to holiday your way.
