Hi cheery friends,
Are you a self proclaimed procrastinator who finds themselves scrambling the week before Christmas , suddenly realizing that they haven’t even thought about gifts for everyone on their list? Sometimes, we are caught up in the idea of finding the “perfect” gift and before we know it, we are days away from the big day! I know how it is, I used to be a procrastinator, but not to worry, it’s not the end of the world. I’ve gotten pretty good at pulling off last-minute gifts that still feel thoughtful, personal, and more importantly, delivered on time. I have come up with 15 gifts you can order last minute and get them shortly after. Lets check them out.
15 Perfect Last-Minute Holiday Gifts Delivered in a Flash
1. Portable Phone Chargers
So, my phone is always dying at the worst times. I know this is like a worldwide problem, thanks to endless scrolling on social media and listening to music, podcasts and what not. This is how we live now, and so we don’t need to adjust our new habits, just make sure we have on hand a portable phone charger for when the phone battery is almost out. This Anker PowerCore 10000 is tiny , but so powerful to give a phone a full charge when needed. It’s also priced well, so you wont break the bank. Scrolling on social media is therapeutic for a lot of people , so gifting this tiny gadget can save one from having a mental breakdown.
2. Bluetooth Speakers
I am the biggest music fan, and when I get tired of headsets but still want to enjoy music, I go for Bluetooth speakers like this JBL Flip 5. This is a gadget you can take to the park for a picnic with friends, use while cooking or even by the pool. This is one of those items that you never think of but it can make a big difference in someone’s life. They can even use this blue speaker for when they go live on social media, and they want audio in the background. It is a little pricey, but the thought is what counts, they will love it!
3. Reusable Water Bottles
The viral of video of the ocean turtles struggling to free themselves from plastic in the ocean hit me hard. I vowed to steer clear of plastics if I could, which is why I vote for this Hydro flask bottle. It keeps water cold for hours, and you still stay hydrated while on the go. Give the gift that is a win-win for all people, its environment friendly ,and they stay hydrated and healthy!
4. Yoga Mats
Yoga works and it’s one of the best investments you can make for mind and body. The only tool you need for this exercise is a Liforme Yoga Mat. It grips the floor and is thick enough for my knees so I can do yoga poses without being hurt. It comes with a carry strap so I can take it with me to the park when I want to be one with nature. It is a bit pricey but if you are looking to gift something strong, sturdy and one what will last for a long time, then this Liforme Yoga Mat is it.
5. Self-Watering Planters
I love live plants but watering them as needed can be a chore. These plants are important for my well-being in my indoor space so I recommend Lechuza Self-Watering Planters, I actually haven’t killed anything yet. They’re stylish, easy to set up, and they water themselves, which is perfect for someone as forgetful as me. I got them in 2 days, and they were around $30 each, which I think is fair for how well they’ve been working.
6. Noise-Canceling Headphones
As a huge fan of headphones, I want to make sure I can focus on what I am doing and without any side distractions. As a music fan, I want to hear the beat and feel the emotion behind the lyrics and I achieve this when I use these Sony WH-1000XM5 noise-canceling headphones and I absolutely love them. They’re perfect for people who appreciate clasity , want to completely go to their own audio world without being bothered. So I recommend these noise cancelling headphones for people who value quality, clarity and die hard music fans. They are pricey but its Sony, you get what you pay for!
7. Electric Toothbrush
Brushing too hard can cause tooth and gum damage. So upgrade to the Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 6100 electric toothbrush, a device that is rechargeable and uses the right amount of force and power to work on your teeth and gums without any damage. The reviews on this electric toothbrush state that it gives a full clean and whitens teeth in a week!
I know its an awkward gift to present but consider it an upgrade for someone who you know loves to use electric toothbrushes. A toothbrush may seem like a small thing, but it’s something people often overlook in terms of quality. Giving an electric toothbrush shows that you care about their daily experience and want to improve it, even in subtle ways.
8. Birthstone Jewelry
Have you thought about gifting birthstone jewelry for the holidays? Birthstone jewelry is such a great gift because it’s super personal and meaningful. Each stone represents the month someone was born, so it really feels unique to them. Also, birthstones have their own special meanings—like strength, love, or good luck, which adds an extra layer of thoughtfulness to the gift.And, let’s be honest, it’s a gift that lasts. High-quality birthstone jewelry is something they can keep forever and wear again and again, always thinking of you when they do. It’s a meaningful gift that shows you really care!
