Even if all they want for Christmas is you.
by STEPHANIE GRATZEL ★ DECEMBER 9, 2020
Shopping for your significant other is much like tying a bow. Annoying, addling, and anxiety-inducing. But in the end, worthwhile. And hell, after the year we’ve all had, I think everyone deserves a little love, through gifts big and small. So read this gift guide, snuggle your partner, and remember the love involved in the holiday spirit. These gifts are universal, thoughtful, and sure to bring you a kiss; mistletoe or not.
Disposable Camera
Disposable film cameras are simple, and budget-friendly. They create memories that you can hold forever, and with the non-instant pictures, leave a wonderful surprise when developed. Go to CVS, grab a disposable, and start making memories with your love, taking pictures throughout your adventures. Disposable cameras are also available for purchase on Amazon, or in stores.

Acrylic Song Frame
Music connects us all, and can be the foundation for beautiful relationships. A quick search on Etsy can connect you to a way to celebrate your love, and a shared love of music. Use “your song” and remind your sweetheart of the magic of music.

Board Games
This idea is basic and easy, but makes for a lot of fun. Board games are a great way to have a little competition, and silly wagers can be set. There are classic games and also couples games, such as “The Ultimate Game for Couples” which is available on Amazon.

Cook Book
Whether you and your partner are good at cooking or not, cook books are such an easy gift that are sure to bring so many memories (and meals). You can both go pick out ingredients, and follow a recipe. Pair it with a Christmas movie and it’s a cozy, cheap date night.

The Adventure Challenge
Upon hours spent on TikTok, I came across this gift idea. It’s a book called the “Adventure Challenge.” The book is filled with fun date ideas and challenges that help a couple bond and share funny memories. The book also has spaces to add pictures and stories so you always remember the memories.

Nameplate Ring
With nameplate necklaces making a comeback these rings are not only trendy, but thoughtful. Rings are universal and these can be customized to have two names, or one, on them. With these, all you have to do is look down at your hand to remember how much you love your love.
