After years of late night study sessions, emotional breakdowns, trying to find forever friends, and figuring out what it means to be an adult, your loved one is finally graduating!

Graduation season is a joyous time for many. Feelings of pride and accomplishment are shared between graduates and their loved ones, and the energy is unmatched. 

Looking for a gift to fit the celebratory mood? Here are a few ideas.

Celebration Tumbler

Glasses and mugs are classic keepsakes. They can be functional or kept on display in a special location. Your loved one will always remember you by it.

Message Jewelry

Simple yet elegant, message jewelry is a wearable reminder of how proud you are. It does not have to be expensive as long as it is symbolic.

Vintage Music Box

For those who enjoy sentimental, old-school trinkets, a music box is the perfect gift. Handmade and engraved with kind words of congratulation, when wound up, this box plays the melody to “You Are My Sunshine.”

2021 Makeup Bag

Nothing says, “I love you,” to a makeup lover like new supplies. Ingrained with an inspirational message, this trendy keepsake will be with your loved one for many early mornings and just before many other special occasions.

Amazon Gift Card

Not sure what to get? Give the gift of retail liberty. A gift card is a perfect gift for the loved one that’s hard to shop for. You can get a graduation cap themed physical gift box, a print-at-home version or a gift card that comes inside a graduation card.

Fresh Flowers

Flowers are a happy gift for a happy day! Add to the beauty of the moment with a gorgeous arrangement. Pick your loved ones favorite colors or their school colors.

Decorative Graduation Dish

Is your graduate moving into a new place? Get them a dinning keepsake that they can hold onto forever. Personalized plates have the first initial of the graduate’s name, plus an inspirational message.

Personalized Glass Jewelry Box

A personally engraved jewelry box is great for graduates who enjoy quality pieces. Get them something to store their precious metals and fine jewelry in that simultaneously commemorates their special day.

High Fashion Wristlet 

Does your loved one have a favorite designer brand? Find a piece that they don’t have to add to their collection. 

Smart Watch

Gen Z has officially started graduating from college (queue TikTok dance). Get them a device that’s both technologically advanced and a rite of passage.

Journal

A journal is a great tool for planning the future, releasing complex emotions or just keeping up with daily tasks. Gifting your loved one a journal shows that you support their personhood and their dreams.
