Last-minute Christmas Gift Guide

Christmas is just around the corner and I'm sure most of us are equally excited to receive gifts and stressing on what gifts to give. Looking for things to give to someone is probably one of my biggest struggles during the Christmas Season. If you can somehow relate to that matter, then I hope this blog post could help you find a gift to someone—to your bestfriend, friends, co-workers, son, daughter, siblings, parents, cousins, pet, etc.

First of all, let's us not forget that Christmas is not just giving and receiving gifts but it is the time when Jesus Christ, our Saviour, was born.

"He is the reason for the Season"

I myself struggle on putting up this list. So let me know if you want a part 2 of this blog post because I still have a lot of things in store for you.

Mugs
There are a ton of cute mugs in department stores with different designs that could fit to the personality and lifestyle of the people whom you're going to give it to. My favorite one is this one in National Book Store and it's from the brand Ban.do. It says, "the boss" which is kinda cool to give to your boss (literally) or to someone you want to cheer up.

Earphones
Know someone who loves music? This JBL T210 In-ear  Headphones. It is cheap and yet has a great quality to satisfy your music experience. (P.S. I'm using this myself). You can get it online or in SM Cyber zone.

Necklace/Bracelet
Here is a rose that will last forever from the Instagram Shop Angl_ph. If you're still in thoughts of what to give to your special someone—either your girlfriend, best friends, or mom—this Rose Necklace and Bracelet is available in Silver, Rosegold, and Gold could be the perfect gift for them.

Bag
Giving gifts to your younger siblings, pamangkin, inaanak, or someone if general who are kids or who loves things for kids. This cute hamster backpack from Cocoxfifi is what I think a perfect gift for them. Not only with its overflowing cuteness, but it is also something they could use in a daily basis.

Notebooks/Journal/Planner
You can never go wrong with these gifts. A near year is starting and having a planner, journal or just a notebook in hand could help to start a new year right. All these 2018 planners I listed are from Etsy. They are all eqully pretty hence I could not decide which to include on this post.

Books
Not all people loves reading books. But if you want to give a book to someone but never know which to give, then these poetry books would be the perfect books for everyone, either a book reader or not, which they will likely appreciate. Books from Lang Leav and Rupi Kaur speaks so much to your heart and you won't easily put it down. I think these are also the kind of books you would put on your coffee table to read over and over again. Another book I highly recommend is The Alchemist by Paolo Coehlo. It is pocket-sized book but is filled with a ton of lessons and realizations about life.

Frames/Wall Decor
If you know someone who loves decorations, specifically wall frames, then this is for him/her. however, you can also give these cute frames to anyone, may it be your friends, classmates or officemates, or jst someone you want to cheer up and smile. It's just so nice to have one of these, put it on a wall on your house and when life doesn't seem any better, looking one of these hang on the wall makes you feel a little better because it reminds you that life is still a good life. These designs are pretty minimal but it is the message that counts.

Skincare Products/Gift Sets
I you want someone to feel that they deserve to be pampered this Christmas season, then this is undoubtedly for them! I really love gift sets, not only that each set already provided you a bunh of products but are also offered in a discounted and affordable price. I found these sets from Beautymnl and I badly want to get one as well. There are also a lot of Skincare gift sets in Watsons, SM Department Stores, and also The Face Shop.

Pencil Case
If you're running out of ideas on what to give to a number of people this christmas, then pencil case, I think, is one of your best shots. When you go to the mall in any department store or book store, there are a ton of pretty pencil cases with varying designs that would suit to the people whom you are giving these to. These cases I mentioned are from National Book Store and Lazada. These are only my personal picks but if you want to look for more, you can find many choices in Lazada.

Art Supplies
Artists or aspiring artists would gladly appreciate any art supplie you'll give to them, from sketch pads to acrylic paints—there is a wide range of choices to choose from. I personally picked this Complete Calligraphy Book and Kit and Art Maker complete calligraphy because I think calligraphy is a kind of art and a hobby that is so therapeutic and enjoyable to learn and make.

Perfume
This could be one of the best gifts to give, either you want to share your personal favorite perfume or you want to re-purchase the perfume he/she already uses. Either way, perfume is still a great gift to anyone in general and you can never go wrong with it. My top picks for a perfume for him and her are Adidas Dynamic Pulse Eau De Toilette Perfume and Petit Bi Jou Baby Bubble from Etude House (which is currently sold out in Althea Korea but you can still find it in stores).

Clothing
Clothes as gifts is literally one of my last-minute gifts. It could sometimes be a struggle or a relief (if you know the personal preferences of shirt designs of the people you are giving it to). One of my favorite brands with shirts lately is Penshoppe. They have a wide range of beautiful shirt designs which is great for every style. You can get these on Zalora.

So here are the Last-minute Christmas Gift Ideas. I hope you guys somehow found this helpful in looking for the perfect gift! Let me know how it turned out to be. You can message/tag me on my social media sites linked at the right side of my blog. I would love to see it!
