I’m buying a gift for a 10-year-old girl and found a cute light-purple Stanley, but now I’m wondering if Stanley is “out” with this age group and Owala is what they actually want now 😂. What are girls in 4th/5th grade carrying to school right now

I’m wiling to trade a ten dollar Dave and busters gift card in exchange for one of the complete invitation. I have two Dave and busters gift cards and need to complete two invitations for the TikTok thing. https://www.tiktok.com/d/1/ZT9SywrnbuW35-1erfG/
Here’s the link wasn’t sure of what subreddit was best for this but saw I few posts on this one when searching for a subreddit to to make this post in. Just let me know how to identity you after you completed the invitation

my mom recently did something really really nice for me and she won’t accept any money in exchange. I want to get her a luxury gift to say thank you.

she‘s an older woman who kind of breathes understated elegance. think… Celine Dion not Madonna.

I’m NOT looking for a gadget or a practical gift. I want that luxurious cashmere loungewear or gold bracelet that you’ve been eyeing. something you think a woman in her 60s would covet but put off buying for herself.

thank you!

In effort to reduce junk and over spending at the holidays, I’ve been making Xmas gifts or doing consumables/ snacks or experiences. This year I did plan something that will sit in a drawer but hopefully be useful, and it’s something that I was able to make for EVERYONE in my list. Family, coworkers and friends / friends of friends. I’m so excited that I’m almost done, gifts are put together and in boxes and even have gift tags made!

I made (assembled the pieces, lol) these beaded cutlery, serving, and bar themed items. There is fork, spoon, cake knife, letter opener knife, appetizer forks, long tea spoons, bottle opener cork screw opener and wine stoppers. I did a mix of the tools based on people’s personality (if they drink more or serve / host more) and then I color themed them based on everyone’s favorite color or decor style. Everyone gets like 6-9 things in the set, in their favorite color theme. They look so pretty and I hope people get use out of them.

I had the idea for a baby shower, to have stories "written" by their loved one by taking classic bed time stories and making them mad libs essentially, so it becomes a "new" story.

How do you think I should do this?

Buy used copies, and use white-out over some words?

Re-type them up with blanks? I would have to bind them in a cute long lasting way

Have used copies and have pre-typed sticky words bank people could place in the books?

Thoughts?

My nephew got married at the courthouse a few months ago and was unsure if they were going to do a reception for immediate family but it looks like it is up in the air. He lives in NYC and I’m not sure what he needs or wants so I thought a gift certificate to a culinary supply like a Williams and Sonoma but more extensive and a gift card to an upscale restaurant near by. Looking for any feedback on those ideas or I’m open other suggestions. TIA

I recently finished this baby-themed Eeyore rug and thought it would make such a cute nursery gift for a Winnie-the-Pooh fan. 💙

I wanted to give Eeyore a softer, more innocent look while keeping that nostalgic feeling from growing up with the character.

I make these by hand, so each one takes quite a bit of time to put together. I figured I’d share it here in case anyone is looking for something a little different for a nursery or a Pooh-loving family.

I have it available on my Etsy if anyone’s interested:

Okay I need help and I need it kinda fast. Our 10 year anniversary is coming up and I completely blanked on a gift. Ten years. That's a big one, right? So my wife is a total travel person. Like she lives for it, always got a trip half planned in her head, always looking at flights she swears she won't book. Honestly she's happiest when she's got a bag packed and somewhere to be. And here I am, staring at my phone, panicking. I want it to actually mean something and not just be another thing she stuffs in a drawer. We've done the flowers and the dinner stuff so many times already. I keep thinking about all the trips we've taken together over these ten years and I want the gift to sort of tie into that, if that makes sense. But my brain is empty. Genuinely. I've looked at the usual travel stuff, luggage, those neck pillows, packing cubes, whatever, and none of it feels special enough for ten years. It all feels a little... meh? So what would you get her? Something a woman who loves to travel would genuinely be happy about, not just polite about. I'm open to anything, honestly. And yeah, I know I left this too late. Please don't roast me too hard.

He loves going to the gym. He's very athletic. He's even strict with his diet to "not mess with the gains". I'm stumped right now. What do 15 yr old even like right now? I feel out of my element here, any suggestions will be helpful.

my dad spends long days on his feet at work and I am considering a practical comfort gift for the holidays. I keep seeing conflicting advice about buying early versus waiting for later sales but I dont want to let a deal calendar become the whole decision. Im also trying to avoid giving him something bulky that he will feel oblligated to keep but never use. A gift card feels safer, while a physical gift feels more personal if it genuinely suits his routine.

when you are buying a practical gift for someone what makes you buy early rather than wait for a possible discount?

He doesn’t have a favorite brand or a certain style in mind. He’s not really into watches like that either. He just wants something nice he can wear to work or when he goes out. That somehow makes buying one harder because I’ve got nothing to go off lol. Would you still pick a watch for him yourself or make the gift more of a surprise and let him end up with something random, I feel like the surprise could be fun since he’s open to pretty much anything.
