39 of the Best Christmas Gifts for the Women in Your Life

Whether she’s winding down after a long day of work with her favorite cocktail or is hosting her friends for a girl’s night, help drinks at home feel just a little bit more elevated by gifting her a set of customized cocktail napkins featuring her initials or a symbol that reminds you of her.

Turn her game collection into display-worthy decor by upgrading some of her favorites with a chic, design-focused version—think a terracotta chess board, artful playing cards, and a pool-party inspired backgammon set.

If you’re looking for a gift for the woman who loves to create Instagram-worthy tablescapes, getting her a few accessories that she can use to level-up the place settings at her next dinner party is a great idea. Look for cute, quirky, and unique decor that remind you of the things she loves—and that you can’t find anywhere else.

Help the hostess in your life level-up her dinner party menu by gifting her a cooking class. Choose a class that features her favorite type of food, like a pasta-making class at your local Italian restaurant, a dumpling-making class taught by a dim sum master, or a cake decorating lesson at a bakery.

We’re willing to bet that your hostess believes she can never have enough serveware. So this holiday season, give her a chic bowl, serving board, or platter.

It’s hard to go wrong giving the hostess in your life a bottle of wine. But why not make that classic gift feel just a little bit more special by pairing it with a chic wine accessory? Look for a mod bottle coaster, artistic wine topper, or bold ice bucket.

Help your hostess keep her outfit clean while she puts the finishing touches on her dinner party spread with a chic apron. Bonus points if it is personalized with her name.

For a thoughtful gift that the homebody in your life is sure to cherish, gift her a piece of custom art — think a drawing of her home, a pet portrait, or a cameo silhouette of someone important to her. The best part? Pulling this gift off is easier than you think. Minted Custom and Commissioned Art programs can help connect you with a talented independent artist to make your gift come to life.

If you’re shopping for the woman who is the reflective type, give her a place to capture her thoughts with a personalized journal. Look for one that you can customize with her name, initials, or even a favorite photo.

Get your homebody out of the house by giving her the gift of a crafting class. This could be a great way to introduce her to a hobby she can continue at home—such as a painting class, embroidery class, or calligraphy class—or be something that ignites a new creative passion like ceramics.

Speaking of ceramics, you can never go wrong with giving someone a one-of-a-kind ceramic piece handmade by an independent artist. Look for something that you know she’ll reach for often—a berry bowl, wine cup, or mug are all great options.

Make nights cuddled up on the couch feel just a little bit more cozy by giving the homebody in your life a set of unique decorative candles for her to place around her living room.

Along with a candle, give your homebody a beautiful way to display their candle collection. Look for interesting candelabras that almost double as tabletop sculptures, or something more low profile for her to tuck onto a crowded credenza.

Whether your homebody loves to cook or has her favorite takeout spots on speedail, give her something that will make dinners at home feel just a little bit more special. She’s sure to love a unique tablecloth or set of napkins featuring quirky details.

Know that the woman you’re shopping for loves watercolor? Or maybe she’s been looking for the perfect print to hang in her kitchen? Use the holidays as an excuse to give her a beautiful art print. Minted has a huge selection of art created by independent artists from around the world, so you’re sure to find something she’ll absolutely love.

Good loungewear is an essential for any homebody. This Christmas, a robe is an excellent Christmas gift idea for the woman in your life, as is a pair of chic pajamas or a matching loungewear set.

A unique piece of decor is always a good Christmas gift idea for women, especially if the women you’re shopping for are homebodies. Look for something that you know she’s missing in her home, whether it be a set of bookends, a chic fruit basket, or a sculptural clock.

Chances are the homebody in your life could use a fresh throw blanket for their couch or bed. Get them one that is as cozy as it is cute by thinking about patterns you know they love or colors that will bring out the best of their existing decor.

Whether she’s running from the office to a workout class, shuttling her kids between school and practice, or just has a social life booked out months in advance, chances are the woman in your life could use an upgraded to-go cup. Gift her something that will stand out from the crowd, like a tumbler designed by an independent artist.

Whether she’s already an avid pickler or is looking for something new to try, a stylish set of pickleball paddles is a great gift idea for women this year.

Give the busy woman in your life something to look forward to by buying her tickets to a show or event this year. Think of something that you’ll enjoy doing with her—or that she can take someone else along with. (And, if you want to go the extra mile, give her a way to preserve the memory afterwards by gifting her a photo print of the day or offering to get the tickets framed).

This is the perfect Chirstmas gift idea if you know someone who loves fresh flowers but is too busy to pick them up for herself regularly. Start by picking out a vase that you know she’ll be proud to display at home (bonus points if it is handmade!) and then sign her up for a subscription that will deliver fresh bouquets to her doorstep monthly or quarterly.

Chances are the busiest woman you know could use a bit of a break. Help her carve out some time to take care of herself by giving her a treatment at a local spa near her home.

Make hauling around everything she needs for busy days out feel a little bit easier by upgrading her old canvas tote for one that features chic leather straps and her name embossed on the front.

If you’re shopping for a woman who travels so much that she never fully unpacks, chances are she could use a new makeup bag. Give her one that is roomy, features a pattern that is easy to spot in her suitcase, and that’s personalized with her name or initials.

Your fashionable friend likely has all the claw-clips she’ll ever need, so this year, give her a hair accessory that is just a little bit more unique, like a chic pearl headband, barrettes featuring handmade ceramic details, or a comb to tuck into updos on formal occasions.

If you’ve been anywhere on social media this year, you’ve likely heard people talking about their “color season,” which is a way to determine what shades bring out the best in your natural features. A session with a color season expert is the perfect Christmas gift idea for the woman in your life who loves fashion, but has it all.

Perfume is a classic Christmas gift idea for a reason—everyone loves a fresh scent! This year, look for perfume featuring her favorite notes from a smaller perfumer, or for something truly special, find a local perfumer who can help guide her through creating a completely custom scent.

Shopping for a woman with an enviable jewelry collection? Help her keep all of her most-worn pieces organized by giving her a chic tray, ring dish, or ring holder to set on her vanity or nightstand.

A piece of jewelry is always a great Christmas gift idea for women, especially if you’re looking to get the woman in your life something truly special. To get this right, pay attention to the type of jewelry she already wears—if she gravitates towards dainty pieces, a delicate chain or pair of stud earrings is something she’s sure to love. Or, if she has a bolder style, give her a piece designed to make a statement.

Sometimes, shopping for the fashion lover in your life can be tricky—after all, they have a strong sense of personal style that can be hard to replicate! So instead of trying to buy clothing or accessories, getting the chic woman in your life a fashion-inspired piece of art can be a great Christmas gift idea.

Whether you’re shopping for your work wife or a secret santa, customized stationery is a failsafe Christmas gift for women. Go for something that features her name or initials in her favorite colors or featuring illustrative details that remind you of her.

Turn her favorite photo into a keepsake by giving her a framed photo art print this Christmas. Minted makes it super easy to find a layout that matches the photo (or photos) you’d like to print and will frame it for you in the size of your choice.

If you don’t have access to her photo files, you can still help her display her favorite memories by gifting her a fun frame or way to display a treasured polaroid.

A trinket dish is almost always a failsafe gift idea for women—but one that doubles as a sculptural piece of art or was hand-painted? Even better.

This classic Christmas gift idea is the perfect small gift to give in a gift exchange or to send to your long-distance best friend as a way to share the holiday magic with her.

Know a woman who keeps track of her life in a paper planner? Give her a chic way to plan her year with a customized 2025 calendar. Look for one that features an art style she loves, or—if you have access to some of her favorite photos—build a custom calendar that features all of her friends and family.

Tea towels is another one of those gift ideas that is a classic for a reason. But this year, instead of giving her a basic set of kitchen towels, go for something that feels like a real upgrade to her kitchen, such as one with an artist-designed print.

Whether she’s getting married or is a religious thank-you card sender, a custom stamp featuring her home’s address is a fun, thoughtful, and super unique Christmas gift idea.
