Women are more picky when it comes to the right gift. That’s why classic gifts such as perfume or jewelry often cause mixed reactions from your partner. The most important premise is therefore to listen. Many women choose their gifts carefully, make small lists of their loved ones’ wishes before Christmas and hope that they will also receive this attention from their partner. Personal gifts are therefore very popular and give the relationship more intimacy through active listening. Of course, there are no Christmas presents just for women or men, because regardless of gender, it’s important to choose the right present for the person receiving the gift. For those who want inspiration, here are original and varied ideas for Christmas gifts for women (and everyone else).
Everyday life can be stressful, which makes it all the more important to find peace within your own four walls. This also includes treating yourself to something and making your free time enjoyable.
The massage pillow
Do you already know soothing massage devices? There are different models, whether for neck, shoulders and back or for feet and hands. Warming Shiatsu massage cushions are particularly pleasant. Your partner can position the pillow however she wants and treat herself to a massage at home.
Restful sleep
Spelled pillows are supposed to ensure better sleep. They are filled with flexible spelled husk that adapts to the body. This means the weight is optimally distributed and sleep is more restful. Neck tension caused by lying incorrectly can also be alleviated or even disappear.
Relaxed bath
The hot bath is also a classic relaxation option. It could be even more pleasant if you can rest your head on a comfortable bath pillow. With the right bath oils you can switch off optimally.
Kaminabend
This table fireplace should also provide relaxation and cozy hours. A fireplace cannot be integrated into every household, so you have a nice alternative that is particularly pleasant in winter. When purchasing, make sure that the model is suitable for indoor use and is smoke-free.
Tip: Combine one of the gifts with a voucher for a couples massage. This ensures a wonderful experience and soothing relaxation.
Your partner is curious and likes company? Then the story-telling game “Tell me! The Family Quiz” could be a suitable Christmas present. The game is suitable for three to eight players and raises exciting questions that are often not asked in everyday life. These include questions like “Is there a famous person in your family?” or “What did you learn from Grandma and Grandpa?”
Thanks to compact Bluetooth speakers, you can listen to music almost anywhere these days. For music fans, a wireless boombox is an ideal Christmas gift. The small speaker is waterproof and very flexible, whether when traveling or in your own home.
Tip: You could also give concert tickets as a gift. This means you not only have the speakers in your hands on Christmas Eve, but you can also experience something together in the future.
Experiencing things together brings us together and offers a welcome change in everyday life. Because taking time for each other is not always easy. Giving the gift of shared experiences means wishing for time together. These can be a wide variety of actions, but those who know their partner know best what she likes. There are various ways to give away vouchers with experiences. Explosion boxes are visually appealing and surprise with numerous layers when opened. Don’t worry, if you’re less creative you’ll get a hit thanks to the special design of the surprise box. Possible vouchers could be trips to the climbing park, joint floating, cooking and dance classes or a wine seminar.
Tip: If you go out of your comfort zone and dare to discover new things together, you will broaden your horizons and find a change from everyday life. Who knows, maybe you and your partner will discover a new hobby.
Daily rituals such as drinking coffee or tea can provide small breaks. Therefore, it is important to use quality utensils and treat yourself to something new.
Coffee Fan
Good coffee makes every coffee lover’s heart beat faster. This organic coffee is an Arabica blend and low in acid. This practical manual coffee grinder is suitable for grinding whole beans. In combination with this stainless steel French press, the coffee becomes a nice Christmas gift. Stainless steel is actually a better material than the classic glass variant because it is shatterproof.
Tea lover
Not only coffee is very popular, but also tea. Tea fans love discovering new types of tea. Tea flowers look particularly beautiful – they are small flower arrangements made from tea that only bloom in hot water. That’s why it’s best to give tea flowers as a gift with a beautiful glass teapot. This way, your partner can watch the tea flowers bloom.
As we all know, Christmas is also a celebration of consumption – but this can be made sustainable. Sustainability is no longer a trend, but rather an everyday reality in many households. That’s why many classic products now have a sustainable alternative.
Make Fashion
The same goes for sneakers: the sustainable brand Veja is well-known and popular. Their vegan sneakers made from organic cotton, natural rubber and vegetable-tanned leather are an ideal Christmas gift for people who value sustainable and fair fashion.
Nice alternatives
There are always disposable products, especially in the home. Products such as practical straws made of stainless steel or kitchen rolls made of bamboo are therefore popular. Cleaning the reusable products is easy and saves money and waste in the long term. If you want to save on cling film, you can use sustainable beeswax cloths.
When it comes to beauty and care, there are also numerous alternatives. If it is certified natural cosmetics, then oils, fats, waxes as well as fragrances and dyes are only made from plant, mineral and – in some cases – animal raw materials. However, paraffins, silicones and synthetic fragrances and dyes are prohibited. Weleda is one of the certified natural cosmetic brands and offers a large selection. In winter, this rich cream is intended to provide particularly good care and long-lasting moisture.
Culinary experiments are a must for amateur cooks, because discovering new recipes and tastes is fun. Of course, enthusiastic cooks are already well equipped in the kitchen and that’s why a new and original idea is considered a Christmas present to bring under the tree. Far Eastern cuisine impresses with its exciting ideas and spices. Chinese dumplings from the steamer – so-called dumplings – are popular. The special thing about the delicious dumplings is the preparation. They are not cooked in water, but only with steam. A traditional bamboo steamer is therefore suitable as a gift for your partner.
Tip: Combine the gift with a voucher for a cooking class together. This way you can both learn something new and get new inspiration for your everyday life.
There is nothing wrong with classic gifts as long as they come from the heart and suit your partner. That’s why this stylish glass vase is a nice option. The Nachtmann brand produces in Germany and, in addition to vases, also has beautiful glasses, bowls and candlesticks in its range.
Tip: If your wife not only has a sense of decoration but also a green thumb, she might enjoy a course in which she learns how to make beautiful flower arrangements.
First of all, it should be said that the perfect gift probably doesn’t exist. After all, tastes and wishes are individual. Anyone who listens and writes down gift wishes a few weeks before Christmas is sure to score a hit. Carefully chosen gifts show your partner that you know each other well and know what you like. Looking for inspiration is also a good option, after all, there are numerous gifts and not everyone is familiar to you. If in doubt, ask your partner honestly what she wants, because then you are guaranteed to be right with your gift.
