Our recent orders show how personal these gifts get. One was a last name on a necklace. Another was a December birth flower bar given for an anniversary. Others were a Taurus coin and pet names in simple capitals. The common thread is one meaningful word or symbol, not a long message.
What makes a Christmas gift meaningful?
A meaningful gift passes three tests: it is specific to her, she will use or wear it, and it comes with a note that says why you chose it. That can be a handwritten letter, a photo book of your year, a framed family recipe in her own handwriting, or an experience you share. A small engraved piece carries the same meaning every day.
What is a good name or initial gift?
Personalized Name Bar Necklace ($39). Her name in flowing script beside a small heart cutout, on a slim 1.26 x 0.20 inch bar. It suits a daughter, a partner or anyone who loves seeing her own name.
Heart Necklace with Initials ($39). One or two initials in cursive or serif. Use one initial for her, or two for a couple or a parent and child.
Heart Cutout Necklace ($39). A solid engraved heart with an open heart outline. It takes up to 12 characters, exactly as typed: a first name, a last name, two initials or a date. A last name works beautifully for a newlywed or a new mom.
All three are laser-engraved on 316L stainless steel in gold, rose gold or stainless steel finishes, and you can check a live engraving preview before you order. Browse more in initial and name necklaces or our personalized necklaces.
Is a birth flower necklace a good Christmas gift?
Yes, especially for someone who already has every initial necklace. Each month has its own flower and meaning, so the gift says "I know your birthday" in a quieter way. Our birth flower necklaces come as a heart ($39) or a slim vertical bar ($42), each with the month's flower already designed and engraved. They do not include names.
- December birthday: the December birth flower necklace, a narcissus on a slim bar ($42), pairs naturally with a Christmas gift. Read about the December birth flower.
- Any month: see all twelve in our birth flower necklaces, or check the birth flowers by month chart.
For more on choosing, read our birth flower necklace guide.
Is a zodiac necklace a good Christmas gift?
Zodiac jewelry is a favorite for women who read their horoscope every morning. Every sign comes as a bar necklace, a coin necklace, a heart signet ring and a square signet ring, each $39. If you do not know her ring size, choose a necklace. Christmas falls in Capricorn season, and many December birthdays are Sagittarius, so a zodiac piece can double as a birthday gift.
See Sagittarius gifts and Capricorn gifts, browse zodiac jewelry, or use our zodiac sign finder if you only know her birthday.
What is a sentimental Christmas gift for mom?
A necklace with her children's initials is one of the most sentimental gifts for a mom. The Heart Cutout Necklace fits up to 12 characters, exactly as typed, so several initials such as "AJMK" fit on one heart. Two initials fit on the Heart Necklace with Initials. Or layer one birth flower necklace for each child. For a mom who has everything, give something only your family could: her children's initials, or the birth flower of the month she became a mom. Add a handwritten card that explains why you chose it. See all our necklaces for Mom.
What is a meaningful gift for a wife or girlfriend?
Put your two initials on the Heart Necklace with Initials, or engrave your anniversary date on the Heart Cutout Necklace (for example "12.20.2019", which is 10 characters). One recent customer chose a December birth flower bar for an anniversary, which works beautifully when your story began in winter.
What is a personalized Christmas gift for grandma?
Engrave "Nana," "Mimi," "GiGi" or her grandchild's name on the Heart Cutout Necklace, then layer it with her grandchild's birth flower necklace. See more in our grandma necklaces.
What is a meaningful gift for a best friend?
Choose something tied to her, not to the friendship in general: her initial, her birth flower or her star sign. One simple idea: her initial in serif on a heart, with a matching initial for you. Browse best friend gifts.
What is a faith-based personalized gift?
The Personalized Name Cross Necklace ($39) carries her name beside a cross cutout. It suits a goddaughter, a confirmation sponsor or anyone whose faith is part of her everyday life. See more cross necklaces.
What do you get someone who loves her pet?
A necklace with her dog's or cat's name is a gift she will wear daily. See our pet lover Christmas gifts under $50 for every option.
What should you engrave on a Christmas necklace?
- Keep it short. One name, one or two initials, or one date reads best on a small pendant. The Heart Cutout fits up to 12 characters; initial necklaces take one or two letters.
- Check spelling twice. Ask a family member if you are unsure. Personalized pieces are made to order and are final sale.
- Match the font to her style. Script feels romantic; capitals and serif feel modern.
