Finding the ideal present can be a difficult endeavor. From minimalists with specific tastes to those who enjoy lavish indulgences, there are so many factors that must be taken into consideration before purchasing anything for them. Strategist editors scoured the globe in search of gifts for everyone on your list–from personalized art prints and Lululemon fanny packs, all available at great discounts right now–so that you can purchase one without breaking your budget!

Goertzen searched for thoughtful, useful, and amusing presents to please both pet parents and their pups (not forgetting themselves!). She found plenty of thoughtful options suitable for dog photographers (both amateur and expert alike!), new homeowners will appreciate a custom illustration of their house as it helps them feel instantly at home; readers would enjoy a Kindle Paperwhite which allows them to keep track of their reading progress;

Corsillo and Schwartz conducted research with artists of all varieties to understand what would best express their creative personality in terms of gifts for artists on their list, from sculptors, painters, photographers, textile designers and textile artists – what would make an appropriate present. Ideas they came up with included a hand-carved stone bowl that holds plant cuttings or an artistic candle which doubles as light source.

Schwartz suggests investing in a terrarium stand, featuring glass jars for holding plant cuttings or small bits of greenery or colorful stones for decoration. It can easily fit on any table, desk, or nightstand while adding color and life into any space. She also suggests carrying around a foam roller as part of self-care during an otherwise hectic day.

When choosing a gift for your bestie, think about something that reflects their personal style or current passions. A pair of sneakers or scented candle will surely delight active friends or those passionate about beauty products; minimalist friends may appreciate something like this mirrored tray for jewelry storage and small items.

Husbands needn’t miss out, either: A stylish shirt from J.Crew or signature scent will delight those who appreciate both looking good and feeling cozy, while a robotic massager or robotic masseuse are perfect gifts that combine style and function. But for budget shoppers, an entertaining lava lamp or heatable stuffed animal are great gifts to give as well; while personalized necklaces with up to eight letters make great keepsake keeps as well as functional fleece blankets which offer both functionality and fashion!
