Christmas/Holiday gifts

I decided that I would like to get all my couple family members the same gift (its beginning to annoy me always getting 12 separate adult gifts)
Anyone have any ideas? I would like them to be personalized or monogrammed. like a personalized welcome mat etc.
Thank for any ideas!! i know its only september-------Chat Icon

Re: Christmas/Holiday gifts

I usually do wine country gift baskets for all aunts and uncles....basically everyone outside the immediate family. I usually choose to fill it with different things, so you can make it something special this way...and it's easier! We'll send it to the "X" family and so on. I mean, to get EVERY person in each family a gift is a lot of money. This way, the baskets are giant and everyone has something. I'll do a Starbucks basket or a Godiva basket; something like that.

Re: Christmas/Holiday gifts

For couple gifts I like to get baskets of stuff. So if they like coffee get a basket with 2 mugs and some different flavored coffees, add some cookies.
Other ideas, wine glasses with wine and cheese spread, crackers.
A movie basket could have a GC to Hollywood Video with snacks and candy they like.

Target has stuff like this closer to the holidays, or you can put one together yourself.

There's a Things Remembered store in Smithaven Mall. They custom engrave almost anything.

They have picture frames, throws, clocks, vases, etc.

Winkflash has really cute coasters that are about $12 and for four coasters, you can choose the same or 4 different pictures.
