Ad – This guide includes PR Samples and affiliate links

When it comes to Christmas Gift ideas for women, like a lot of men, Mike always moans that he hasn’t got a clue. In fact, he’d go so far as to admit that he is pretty hopeless at knowing where to start when it comes to gift ideas. Whether you’re shopping for your partner, your sister, your Mum, or your Mother in law this Christmas, we have lots of lovely gift ideas for you to consider, some of which you may not have heard of or seen before. I hope you find this little bit of inspiration helpful when deciding what to buy! If you see something you wouldn’t mind receiving yourself, why not tag your loved ones on my social posts as a not-so-subtle hint!! 🙂

For the school run dash

If your buying for some one who can’t start their day without a healthy dose of coffee, this Contigo autoseal travel mug is a gift that is sure to be well received. Available in a wide choice of colours from bold and bright to subtle shades, they’re 100% sealed and leakproof, keeping her morning coffee hot for up to five hours (or her cold drinks cool for up to twelve!)
The button lock means these drinks flasks can even be thrown in her handbag without having to worry about accidental spills.

Unsure what to pop in your Contigo mug? For coffee with a difference, this Beanies 6 Jar Stash is perfect for the festive season. Sugar free, low calorie and in comforting Christmas flavours including Christmas Pudding, Gingerbread, Mince Pie and Peppermint Candy Cane, Orange & Cranberry and Yule Log each in their own jar of instant granules – they make a thoughtful gift for coffee lovers!

For the festive home

If you’re buying for someone who loves to bring some ‘festive vibes’ into their home during December, the following suggestions could be just the ticket.

First up, Baylis & Harding have a fantastic range of bath and toiletries for Christmas including some stunning festive designs in their Fuzzy Duck Collection. We absolutely love this Gingerbread Latte Luxury Bath Bubble decanter which not only smells stunning, but also lights up at the base, creating a warm glow on the side of the tub. At less than £7, this is a great gift at a budget friendly price – making it an ideal choice for your secret santa too.

Want to get that festive scent throughout your entire home? These luxury Scandi diffusers from The Copenhagen Company make a wonderful gift. The Magic & Cheer scent is ideal for the festive season – a citrus scent with a blend of delicious spices including cinnamon and cloves, sweetened with a touch of vanilla and warm woody notes of sandalwood and cedar. The beautiful gold accents on the bottle look great in a candlelit room too!

Candles make great gifts for Christmas and the iconic Yankee Jar Candles are the obvious choice – the perfect addition to your mantelpiece or sideboard to fill your home with a festive scent. We love this Sparkling Winterberry fragrence, with notes of pomegrannete, juniper berries and white musk. Each medium jar with multiple wicks has a burn time of around 35-50 hours, with an elegant jar that can be repurposed after use.

For the one who needs to get organised

As a Mum to two children, I am well aware of just how challenging it can be trying to remember everything. Keeping up with the entire family’s whereabouts can feel almost impossible, particularly if you have children at multiple schools. From PE Kit to after-school clubs, swimming lessons, trips, holiday dates and inset days, being a parent can feel like a constant influx of emails and things to remember.

This 2023 Papersalad Family Organiser from Danilo not only includes stunning imagery but has five columns, meaning she can easily record the entire family’s itinerary and whereabouts on one easy-to-view page.

Not only that, the official organiser includes up to 200 themed stickers with key events such as holidays, dentists and half term, helping produce a visual and engaging record of family life. There is even a handy pocket at the back to store all your notes, vouchers and receipts. The RHS Family Organiser costs just £11.99 and is available at Danilo.

If the special lady in your life loves stationery, why not treat her to a special pen that is a little more luxurious than an everyday biro? We absolutely love the personalisation options at boutiquegifts.co.uk. This stylish engraved Paker pen comes presented in a stylish gift box and includes a QuinkFlow ballpoint ink refill. The hard part? Making sure the kids don’t get their mitts on it!

For the ultimate day out…. 

As lovely as traditional gifts can be – sometimes it’s nice to just spend time together, to go somewhere and enjoy an experience and actually create some memories with your loved ones. Ideal for couples or Mums and Daughter’s to enjoy together, the Dinner and Theatre Show gift experiences from Buyagift are the perfect day out. Head down to the West End and take your pick from a range of theatrical favourites like Wicked or the terrifying Woman in Black, enjoying the fantastic views from your Upper Circle seats.

Before you sit down to enjoy the show, you can tuck into a 3 course meal with a glass of wine at one of five central venues. An absolute treat that will be remembered long after the decorations are back in the loft. Even better, Buyagift vouchers are all have the ability to be exchanged, so if she decides she’d rather try out indoor skydiving or a supercar experience instead, she can easily swap it (during the valid date period) for an alternative choice instead.

For a luxury scent

Last but by no means least, some of the best christmas gifts for women are the ones that they would love to treat themselves to but simply cant’ justify spending the cost on themselves. Perfume Direct have a fab range of perfume and eau de toilette gift sets that would be a delight to find nesled under the tree. We love the Gucci Flora Beauty gift box, which not only comes with a stylish 50ml bottle of this delightful floral scent, but also a smaller 5ml bottle, ideal for popping into a handbag for travel or a quick boost of scent on the go.

For the memory maker

It’s no secret that I love taking photos of my kids (who doesn’t) but for a personalised gift, you can’t beat photo presents. From photo calendars with a gorgeous photo to enjoy each month when you turn the page, to a photo desktop photo plaques and mousemats for your desk, Vistaprint have a HUGE range of affordable photo gifts that are really unique. We love their personalised initial tote bags too.

So there you have it….. from me time to a little luxury, days out to indulgence, that’s my little round up of Christmas inspiration. Which one of those would you like to find under your tree this year?
