To me, there is no better feeling than absolutely nailing your gift for the sentimental person in your life. Chances are, they have the best reactions, treasure the gift, remember where/when you gifted it to them, the list goes on! Without further ado, here are the top gifts for the sentimental person!
Gifts for the Sentimental Person in Your Life
Photo Ornament // Gifting an ornament may seem overdone, but the style of this one makes it work for all year round – would look just as beautiful on the tree or hanging from a doorknob.
Recipe Journal // It could be even more special if you fill it with a few of the recipes that you’ve made together, remind you of them, make them think of you, etc!
Birthday Book // This site will compile newspaper’s front pages on your recipients date of birth going back decades! They have several different newspapers (The New York Times, The Chicago Tribune, etc.), so you could go a step even further and get the paper that makes the most sense for them geographically!
LegacyBox // I recently bullied my mom into buying this for herself because we have so many VHS family videos wasting away in our attic – did you know those start degrading over time? So sooner the better for gifting this one!
Matchbox Print // This site offers so many matchbox prints from niche restaurants, colleges, hotels, etc., it’s almost certain you’ll find a fitting one for your recipient! You can buy the print alone and pick up a more affordable frame if the options from this site are a little too pricey.
Photo Calendar // I’ve gifted this for several people, and it truly is the gift that keeps on giving throughout the year. And this site sells refills only, so you can gift it year after year.
Countertop Digital Frame // My mom is obsessed with this! She has it proudly displayed on her countertop, so when anyone comes over, we spend a decent chunk of time just watching the photos rotate in and out, commenting on the moment the photograph captured!
Hand-drawn Home // I love this for the new homeowner or the forever home inhabitants in your life!
I hope the sentimental person in your life loves whichever gift you give them this year!
