#HolidayCheer: Here Are 9 Awesome New Year Gift Ideas

A new year is a fresh start for new goals, ideas and checklists. Calendars, planners and journals help keep track of plans and can serve as the perfect gift for someone who loves to pen down their thoughts. 

LBB Picks: Neha Doodles, Supple Room, Pinaken, The Wishing Chair, Dots & Doodles, Ode Studio

We think self-care should be everyone’s top priority in this new year! Wellness products are the best gifts for people who deserve some quality me time, like your overworked work bestie, parents or even yourself. We are thinking scented candles, face masks, essential oils and night creams.

LBB Picks: Bare Necessities, Herb Tantra, Marks & Spencer, Nyumi, Myra Veda

Whether your giftee is only just planning out a routine or is a true-blue beauty enthusiast, beauty gifts are presents everyone appreciates. When it comes to beauty and grooming products, the options are endless. Check out some options below.

Travelling perhaps tops everyone’s list of things to do in the new year, and we totally get that! And so, travel essentials can be the best gift for the frequent traveller in your life. Anything from power adapters and travel pillows to packing kits, duffel bags and more. 

LBB Picks: Head here for Amazon’s gift section and you’ll find everything your giftee will need.

New year, new me! New year means new resolutions and staying fit is almost everyone’s resolution. (We are not getting into whether the resolutions are followed through.) A fitness kit, then, makes for an awesome gift and can give them a much-needed push.

LBB Picks: Decathlon, HRX

Plants are known for bringing in good energy, peace and joy, all in line with the new year spirit. Even if your loved one is not a plant hugger, everyone needs good plants in their life as they can bring a lot of freshness and positive aura. 

We have picked out the best plants according to Vastu here. Even if you don’t buy into Vastu, you will find some great options here.

LBB Picks: FlowerAura, Ferns & Petals. Head here for more options.

Don’t want to give them something they’ll end up hating? Gift cards from their favourite stores and brands are the safest bet and will allow them to choose a gift for themselves. Even travel vouchers for a dream holiday will do the trick. Head here to get some options for travel vouchers.

Everyone loves a new gadget and they make for the coolest, top-tier gifts. From the classic InstaX camera to Kindle, head here for electronics under INR 10k that would serve as the perfect new year gifts. 

For the ones who have a never-ending TBR list, books will be the most sought-after gifts. Better yet, give them book sets that give them loads to look forward to in the new year! While classics are the safest option, don’t shy away from new releases.
