It´s not even a month till Christmas. Like every year the big question is; what do I give as a gift to whom?! I put some ideas together, there should be something for everyone. The more people you give something the more expensive it is that´s why I made a budget and every Christmas gift here is less than 50 euros. Regardless of whether parents, siblings, friends, grandparents, or boy-/girlfriend, you will find something for everyone. Of course, you can use these gift ideas also for people who celebrate their birthday in the cold season.

Christmas gifts for the woman
Christmas gifts for men
Christmas gifts for kids
Of course, there are a thousand ideas but it would be just too much to present them all. So, I made a small summary:
- There is not a big difference between gifts for women and men. Male people also like beauty products like perfumes, aftershaves, or care kits for beards. Electronic Accessories like wallets or scarves are always a good idea too. As soon as you engrave something it´s a more personal present. I gave an engraved silver bracelet to my boyfriend a few years ago and he loved it. A similar one is also in the gallery above. A good Christmas gift for friends and colleagues is also winter liquors or a classic bottle of good wine.
- Gifts for kids are the easiest. They mostly have a wish list and you can just buy them something from it. For anyone who still doesn’t know what to give them; I recommend toys, clothes, and video games.
- Generally I like to give adventure gifts to my loved ones, for example, concert tickets or a visit to a theme park.
- By the way self-made gifts are always a good idea too because people see you made it with lifeblood, for example,self-madee cookies or liquor. You can also make a lot of small gifts instead of one big one.
December 2017: I´m one of these persons who do everything at the last minute. This year I want to begin earlier and with all this Christmas stuff so I can spend December in joy. I intended to do this already last year but all I did was make some burned cookies and decorate a small Christmas tree, apart from that I had a stressful time. This year I take my mother as my role model, everything is decorated at the end of November and you feel the Christmas spirit in my parent’s apartment. If I do it like her I should have enough time for a gingerbread house, ice-skating or Christmas markets.
December 2018: Anyone who has already been here last year may recognize this blog post. I just updated it, because no one needs duplicate content. Incidentally, in 2017 I managed to bake cookies, make the apartment Christmassy and decorate a gingerbread house with Tristan. Yes, heard that right. We did not do it ourselves but bought a template and simply glued it together and decorated it. But hey, still better than a year before.
