Are you thinking about Christmas gift ideas this early? You’re not alone. So, if you want to avoid the Christmas rush and to avail yourself of discounts (prices often skyrocket before Christmas because shops and retail stores know people will buy gifts), start preparing your shopping list early. We’ll be publishing a series of these gift guides to help you.  

Christmas Gift Ideas for the Eternal Bachelorette  

We all have that friend who’s loving and embracing the single life. She’s always off to another adventure, hitting the newest and hottest bar in town and updated with TikTok trends. She’s also the one who is likely to spoil your kids and whom your kids refer to as the “fun aunt.”   

Gift ideas: Since she’s always traveling, why not get a travel-related gift such as luggage tags, a passport holder, and baggage protector, and, to make sure she’s safe, a hotel door lock? You can also give her something for her “bachelorette pad” like a wine cart or a full-length mirror to check her OOTD before sashaying out the door.  

Christmas Gift Ideas for the Bookworm

The thing with buying gifts for a bookworm is that you can never be sure if the book you plan to give is something that they’ve already read. Fortunately, there are other book-related gifts you can give to the bookworm of your social group.  

Gift ideas: You can give a table lamp they can use for reading or a set of magnetic bookmarks (you know they’re reading different books simultaneously depending on their mood), a candle that smells like books and ink, and a tote bag they can use for hauling new books from the library or book store. If your book lover friend has a library of paperbacks and hard bounds, for the love of all that’s good and pure, don’t give an e-book reader lest you want to see them use it as a chopping board. Traditionalists will read written words printed on paper until their dying breath.  

Christmas Gift Ideas for the Mother Hen

She might be the friend who got married first and the first one to become a mom or the mom of the group who is always looking out for each of you. She’s the one who remembers everyone’s birthdays, the one who organizes trips and parties, the self-appointed driver when everyone else had a drink or two, and the shoulder to cry on when someone’s heart gets broken.  

Gift ideas: The mother hen of the group will appreciate a journal (to keep track of important dates), or gifts for self-care since she’s been busy looking after everyone like a gift certificate for a whole-body massage or a mani-pedi or a spa at home kit.  

Christmas Gift Ideas for the Career Woman

She’s your workaholic friend who’s always on her phone solving work crises. She’s always getting promoted, and when she talks about her work, you don’t get a single word she’s saying. She’s always busy but still makes the time even for just a couple of minutes, she’d attend every karaoke party and movie marathon.  

Gift ideas: Give your workaholic friend a water bottle that reminds her of when it’s time to rehydrate herself or a power bank to make sure her phone always has juice. You can also give her a business card holder to ensure she always has her business cards when she’s out and about.  

Christmas Gift Ideas for the Homebody

If you have a friend in your circle who’s a homebody and you always hang out at her place because she’s allergic to other people, there are numerous Christmas gifts you can give her to make her home cozier, especially when you are always hanging out at her place.  

Gift ideas: You can give her a comfortable blanket, fuzzy slippers, a fleece bathrobe, an eye mask, or a popcorn maker.
