Rounding up some fun graduation gifts for you today! Check out my faves below and share your graduation gift ideas in the comments!
Is it just me, or did graduation just seriously sneak up on you like it did me? Just like Memorial Day, I feel like yesterday was Valentine’s Day and I look up and this weekend is Memorial Day? Where has all this quarantine time gone??
In any case, the graduates this year have definitely faced a very specific and hard set of circumstances! I can’t imagine having a major life milestone happening in the middle of a pandemic, but I imagine it is going to create an incredible generation of people!
Do you remember what you got as graduation gifts? I know most of my gifts were cash, and much appreciated, but I thought it would be fun to put together a gift guide of some useful graduations gifts for your favorite grad! Pair any of these with a gift card or maybe some cash and you’ll be golden in their eyes!
Graduation Gifts for your Favorite Grad
1. Turkish Towels – I didn’t have super nice towels until I got married and once I understood how amazing they are, I wish I had invested in them sooner! These Turkish towels dry super fast (great for dorm rooms) and stay soft forever!
2. Sugarfina Bento Box – If your graduate has a sweet tooth, this little Bento box with a gift card would make the perfect gift!
3. Amazon Prime Membership – I don’t know a single graduation who wouldn’t love the gift of an Amazon Prime membership! Music, movies, photo storage, and so many more benefits to help them get through their first year of college!
4. Hydroflask – Hydroflask or not, having a cold drink of water with you all the time never gets old!
5. Tory Burch Leather Tote – For the fashionista grad, this Tory Burch tote will take them from class to out with friends to their first job with ease.
6. Rifle Paper Co. Journal – Busy college students and new professionals need a place to track it all, so might as well make it pretty!
7. Simple Modern Tumbler – This is my new favorite thing on the planet! It keeps my drink cold, fits in my car cupholders, and helps me drink so much water every day!
8. Lantern Diffuser + Oils – This beautiful diffuser makes the perfect accent for a desk and throw in Clarity and Brain Power oils to keep them focused when working on that term paper.
9. In Flight Organizer Pouch – This might be intended for travel, but I can think of an endless list of uses for this cute little pouch!
