10 Last Minute Holiday Gift Ideas
Twelve. More Days. Yep, only TWELVE MORE DAYS until Christmas! And I’m guessing if you’re here, it means that you’re more than likely looking for some holiday gift ideas that you can pick up within the last few days before you have to wrap them up and put them under the tree. Well, worry not, because I am here to help you find some of your last minute gifts for this year!
Before we get started, if you’re okay that your present arrives later than Christmas, feel free to check out my other gifting blogs from this year: Canadian Small Shop Holiday Gift Guide, Holiday Gift Guide for Her, Holiday Gift Guide for Him, Stocking Stuffer Ideas (That Don’t Suck!) & Tech Items to Gift This Holiday Season. Now, let’s jump into these ideas!
01. COOKBOOKS
Whether you’re looking for something to spark some inspiration, or maybe the person you’re buying for has recently changed up their diet & needs some new meal ideas — you really cannot go wrong with a brand new cookbook. Just make sure they don’t already have it!
02. SUBSCRIPTION BOX
A subscription box makes an amazing last minute gift for someone! There are so many different types of subscription boxes now, there’s quite literally something for everyone — fashion, food, lifestyle — whatever you need, there’s a box for it!
03. CHARCUTERIE BASKET
Head on down to the grocery store and pick up some cheese, crackers, a wooden board & don’t forget a great bottle of wine! I don’t know a single person who wouldn’t love to receive an equally amazing and delicious gift like this.
04. SPA GIFT CARD
Give the gift of self-care, relaxation & pampering while also supporting a local business with a spa gift card! It’s always a lovely treat to have someone else pay for your massage, manicure or whatever spa treatment you desire.
05. DIGITAL PRODUCTS
Why not give the gift of some digital prints or presets this holiday!? My personal tried & true presets are the Love Collection from Jilly Digital, as well as their beautiful digital prints! You can also check out my digital shop for digital prints created by yours truly!
06. GIFT CARD
You can truly never go wrong with a gift card to someone’s favourite store — whether it be their favourite clothing store, makeup, or maybe they’re even saving up from an expensive tech item, you can get them a gift card towards their future purchase.
07. VIRTUAL WORKSHOP
There are so many virtual workshops going on around the world now, especially due to COVID, you really don’t have to be in person for many of them anymore. Whether they’re interested in cooking, photography, woodworking — you name it, there’s a virtual workshop out there!
08. PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION
A photo session with a professional photographer can be a pricey thing that not a lot of people think to treat themselves to. Whether it’s just for them, with their entire family, a partner or a friend, a photo session is sure to please.
09. DISNEY+ SUBSCRIPTION
If you’re not already enjoying a Disney+ subscription, I can’t recommend it more! At launch, it was primarily what we all know & love about Disney, but since they’ve acquired Star in Canada, there’s been more adult content added, so there’s something for everyone, including your inner child.
10. BOOKS
Much like gift cards, you also can’t go wrong with a good book, especially if you’re shopping for a book worm. Just make sure that the book you pick is a genre they like!
If you’re still looking for some holiday gifts, I hope this list helped you out! Given the wide variety of items on this list, there’s something for any budget & any interest that is sure to make for a great holiday gift.
