Easy, Fantastic Holiday Gift Ideas

By Elba Fenwick


The holiday season is fast approaching and that means it's time for family get-togethers, trips to visit Santa and picking out the perfect Christmas tree or Thanksgiving turkey. This is also the time of year when we have to find fantastic gifts for all of our loved ones and that can be tricky. If you are looking for some great gift ideas, here are some that are sure to please.

Chocolate is always a popular gift during the holidays, and while you can certainly spring for a selection of delicious chocolates, it might be a bit more fun to opt for a creative option such as chocolate pizza. Chocolate Pizza Company makes these gourmet dessert pizzas and packs them up in genuine pizza boxes, so not only do they taste amazing; they also provide a truly impressive gift presentation.

There are so many fun chocolate pizza options that it is easy to find something to suit everyone on your list. They have pizzas for those who love dark chocolate and those who prefer milk chocolate and they even have a pizza for those white chocolate lovers. The dark and milk chocolate pizzas are a blend of melted chocolate and English toffee that is handmade at Chocolate Pizza Company. The white chocolate variety is a blend of almonds, dried cranberries and white chocolate. You can top the dark or milk versions with nuts, with marshmallows and graham crackers, with Reese's Pieces, with M&Ms or just a drizzle of white chocolate. You also could get a snack pack with five mini chocolate pizzas or buy a selection of slices. They even have a cute variety designed to look like a reindeer.

If some of your recipients are unable to eat chocolate or other types of confections, why not opt for a clever, seasonal floral display? There are bouquets and arrangements perfect for every holiday. Help a loved one decorate for Thanksgiving by sending a beautiful centerpiece for the holiday table. A blue vase filled with white and blue blooms is a thoughtful gift for those who celebrate Hanukkah. For Christmas, you could send a white and red assortment with sprigs of pine or even find a florist that sends out miniature holiday trees, which will make the house smell lovely.

Children love receiving toys, but if you want to send something a bit more unique, consider sending them something before the holidays actually start to help them build up their holiday spirit. This could be an advent calendar or perhaps a little all-in-one kit filled with holiday crafts and activities. There are many different types of advent calendars, some provide fun holiday activity ideas for each day leading up to Christmas and others have little drawers or doors that can be filled with tiny items.

Photo gifts are another fun gift to give, particularly if you are giving to members of your family. You could make a photo calendar featuring all of the members of your family including your parents, siblings, children and nieces or nephews. These can be created online and you can print multiple copies and send them to several relatives. It's also a helpful gift if you put in important information such as birthdays and anniversaries.
