Ideas needed for everybody!!!!

[BrieAndChilli]

I seem to have run out of ideas for presents this year! I think it was clearing out DH mamas house and realising how much stuff/tat she had stored away.

So I need ideas that aren’t just Christmas themed tat/one hit wonder plastic kids toys/dust gathering ornaments for all the following:

MIL - mid 60s still working, doesn’t do much else as her rescue dog won’t be left alone and won’t be around other dogs! No real hobbies.

SIL - 30, just moved back from glamorous life abroad, high end tastes in make up and clothes etc so not sure how much budget would stretch. Likes to party!

DH - Avid climber. Don’t get each other expensive gifts but fed up of just getting him socks/books etc

SIS - she’s happy with Tat! Her house is full of it!

BIL - lorry driver no other hobbies.
Cousin in law - also lorry driver. Mid 20s avid gamer

Aunt - possibly something garden as she is getting her garden relandscaped next year

DS1 - 13 geek, loves maps.

DD - 12 quite arty, quite easy to please really but has all the big’ things

DS2 - 10 more Lego I suppose

Nephew - 10 - Lego again!!

Niece - 6.

Budget..???

Gardening try hori hori this is one example you can get others around the £25 mark.

For high end SIL silk pillowcase?

Maps future mapping company

Assuming they're DHs motjer, sister and brother....MIL, SIL and BIL = not your problem. get DH to sort those.

I bought my MIL nice cotton pyjamas one year and she liked them. I try to pick things that people use every day when I am not sure what to get. Slippers, nice top, hand cream.

Sil - an eyeshadow pallette. Is there a new one out? Or a face serum. Wine/prosecco?

A good travel cup for the lorry drivers. Thick cosy work socks.

There is new Mario lego out and my DS is excited about that.

I need to make my list and get some ideas together.

MIL - some cosy stuff for her dog walks. Cashmere wrist warmers from Turtle Dove, gloves or scarf set, welly socks, hand warmers etc. And some dog treats 🐾

SIL- champagne Darling. Maybe some nice glasses to go with it. Or a luxury candle from jo malone etc. Sometimes offers here. Or Neom seems to be a fancy thing these days?!?

DH - A Kleen kanteen for hot drinks. A romantic photo gift like a photo book of memories over the years? A date night?

SIS - more tat... nice hamper of goodies? With a theme specific to her.

BIL - Voucher for one of the chain restaurants he might eat at on the job. Or Starbucks. Or a travel mug.

Cousin in law. As above.

Aunt - a trug with some gardening goodies inside like a hamper or local gardening centre voucher for bulbs or pots etc.

DS1 - A jigsaw map of your local area/home. Some kind of GPS device? Weather station?

DD - new art supplies, a light box, easel, an oversized hoodie (sienna one from amazon)

DS2 - 10 ikea Lego furniture range for his new Lego?

Nephew - 10 - Lego storage head and some new Lego

Niece - colour your own canvas and lovely pens from hibbycraft.

Pare the whole thing down - everyone gets a bottle of their favourite type of spirit or good wine, and a book.

I've just bought a wallet from ebay that's a playstation design could be a good gift for the gamer? Maybe with a voucher inside?

I paid about £7.50 for the wallet.
