Ideas For Ladies' Gifts

Handbags make great gifts for ladies.


For an upcoming special occasion or holiday, get the lady in your life a gift that comes from the heart. Use her hobbies and interests as a guide to finding the right gift. Ideas include practical, personalized, traditional and photo presents to give more thought and meaning to her gift.


Picnic Basket for Two


Ladies enjoy going on picnics and other romantic outings, making a picnic basket for two an appropriate gift idea. Purchase a picnic basket and fill it with picnic-related items like a blanket, storage containers for food, plastic cups and cutlery, paper plates and napkins, and possibly a container of baked goods and a bottle of champagne. These items can be found inexpensively at discount stores as well as dollar stores.


Personalized Gifts


There are many personalized gifts to choose from for the special lady in your life. These include jewelry items that are engraved, such as a pendant or ring. Bathrobes, towels and pillowcases can be monogrammed with her initials, as can a briefcase or passport holder. Other personalized items include a jewelry or keepsake box, a plaque and wall clock. Personalize these items with her initials or name, an important date or a personal message from you.


Photo Gifts


Give her the gift of memory by choosing from a variety of photo gifts. This might be a photo album or scrapbook filled with family and friend photographs, including photos of her beloved pets and neighbors. A picture frame with a candid photo you have of her and her friends is another great photo idea, as is a memory box with photos and other items such as event tickets.


Practical Gifts


Choose from a variety of practical gifts, or gifts she would use on a regular basis. Household practical gifts include towels, linens, home decor, furniture and kitchen appliances. Other practical gift ideas include a purse or handbag, wallet, watch, belt, personalized key chain, briefcase and laptop case. Many of these items can be personalized to add more meaning to them, like getting the linens monogrammed with her initials.


Gift Certificates


There is nothing wrong with getting her a gift certificate. Buy a gift certificate to a hobby or craft store she frequents, or purchase one from her favorite restaurant, coffee shop or diner. Most major retailers offer gift certificates, as well as convenience stores and gas stations, and you can buy prepaid credit cards. You can also get her a gift certificate to a local spa or for a housecleaning service.
