It’s around this time of year when the madness starts: Black Friday, online shopping, wish lists, and Secret Santa drawings. Other than your parents and siblings, the most important people in your life are your best friends, and they deserve Christmas presents that are as amazing and unique as they are! Here are my favorite presents (so far) that I will definitely be buying for my best friends!
If you have a friend who’s an English major (or just loves reading), this is the perfect gift for them. The posters section of the website is filled with classic novels, so you’re sure to find everyone’s favorite book! The poster is a print of an image inspired by the book created using the entire text of the novel. You read that right: the entire novel is printed into a beautiful piece of art. The best part is that you can choose from a variety of colors. My personal favorites are The Great Gatsby, Peter Pan, Aesop’s Fables.
As a Lynch girl, I love school supplies, and these pencils are cute and functional! They come in a set of 6, and the gold color is super pretty. The engraving (Sparkle & Shine) is a nice reminder to live each day with a little flare!
These cute stud earrings are perfect for your fashionista best friend. Trend Tribe is a website started by a Boston-area grad geared toward college students, so everything on the site is super affordable. The founder of Trend Tribe, Samantha Cooper, even visited BC and HC BC a few weeks back! I can personally vouch for the quality and affordability of the jewelry; your friends are sure to love it!
Your Muggle friends will love this flask. Whether they use it for Felix Felicis, Polyjuice Potion, or some other beverage, this stainless steel flask comes in a ton of colors that’ll match everyone’s Quidditch robes.
This gift is perfect for anyone who likes cheese (AKA everyone). I already have the perfect friend in mind: someone quirky, cheesy, and a little bit goofy. Surprise your best friend with this tiny grilled cheese, and she’s sure to be the happiest, most fashionable friend in the world.
So if you’re looking for a Christmas gift for someone special in your life, hopefully these ideas got you thinking (and maybe shopping!). You’ve only got a few weeks left before the big day!
