Your friends and family might be too old to believe in Santa, but they will always appreciate a good gift. With just a couple of weeks left till Christmas if you have not decided on what to get for your loved ones, this list might be the best place to start. We have curated a list of things that will bump you to the position of a sweet and thoughtful person.
Cookbook
Festivities or no festivities, food is a necessity. A cookbook can be a subtle nudge to your loved one who spends half of their salary on takeouts and eating out to invest in their own kitchen. Not everyday Glovo or Chowdeck, sometimes whip something up in the kitchen and learn an important life skill. We strongly recommend Sisi Yemmie’s digital cookbook A Time To Eat or her 6 Month Menu Planner.
Jewelry
You can never go wrong with a timeless piece of jewelry. Yemora offers unique pieces that will complement your favorite person. From statement earrings and bracelets to more modest ones, you have a lot of options to choose from. The Imi and Tami pieces are a good place to start, but if you want to splurge, go for the Adora piece.
Grooming kit
If you like the men in your life looking well kept and tidy, you should consider getting them a grooming kit. Contribute to the “je ne sais quoi” that would have them glowing and honestly boost their confidence.
Candles/Diffusers
A beautiful scent can improve how one enjoys their personal space. Candles or diffusers are always great items to give. The Aura Lifestyle produces beautifully crafted candles that will not only improve the atmosphere in your home, but will add an elegant edge due to its unique form.
Gift cards
Here, you can implement the knowledge you have of your loved ones. What brands do they love? Are they an avid reader? Do they love working out? What store do they always repost on their insta stories? You could always get a gift card to their favorite places. An alternative to this would be to get a gift card for Hingees, a clothing and accessories store for all genders.
Arami Essentials
Arami offers a range of skin care products like cleaners, oils and body butter to choose from. They also create box sets of 3 or more products like the Nurtured By Nature Gift Box set which can be the perfect gifts for this festive season.
Adire
Adire has always been a timeless piece of fabric, but now modern clothing brands like Bulu Studios, Dye Lab, Tamire and VWH_Apparel have reimagined them into these modern and chic items of clothing. With adire, you could always sew “and-co” pieces with your loved ones, or gift them custom pieces (by Bulu Studios) to commemorate the end of the year with them. These 4 brands represent a different range of prices to choose from and they are all stunning.
Shades
A good pair of glasses are essential to living comfortably in sunny Nigeria, they could also be used to stay incognito either at events or clubs *side eye*.
Perfumes
There is no gift guide without a good perfume. You could ask what their favorite scent is and purchase that, or you could research on popular and reliable brands like YSL and Dior to buy from.
Home gadgets
Did your friend move into a new place this year? Have they been dropping hints on what they need or have you noticed something could make their lives easier. It could be an airfryer, a bedside lamp, a shoe rack, organizational set, vanity mirror or table. Whatever you think would be a nice addition to their space, will be much appreciated.
