Preparation
There’s no one like Mom or Dad, which is why their holiday gifts should be as unique as they are. Though it’s tempting to scoop up their old favorites—a beloved bottle of red or their signature scent—we’d encourage you to think bigger this year. To help you find creative options that speak to their passions and hobbies, we’ve rounded up several gifts they won’t expect, which really adds to the fun.
From a gardening bag that doubles as a folding chair to incredibly chic wooden clogs, there are so many thoughtful options ahead. We love the idea of gifting parents items that they’ll look at every day—like a phone charger pretty enough to leave out in the open or a stunning coffee table book featuring scenes from the Amalfi Coast. Want to get a little more personal? Have their initials monogrammed on a classic tote bag that will last forever.
