Graduation season is almost upon us, and as you’re getting ready to close out one chapter with your grad and begin a new one, it’s a good time to start thinking about a gift to congratulate them on their incredible accomplishments. Whether you know a student finishing high school or college, these gift ideas will carry them from one journey to the next. See our graduation gift guide below.

1. Noise-cancelling headphones will help block out loud roommates, chatty coworkers, or anything else that distracts them from getting *ish* done.
2. A wireless charging station for all of their techy gadgets will be the gift they use time and time again. Why does everything always need to be charged?!
3. Jewelry is a sentimental way to celebrate the grad. This compass necklace or bracelet will serve as a reminder to follow their own path.
4. A book of lessons, wise words, and funny anecdotes will inspire, instill joy, and provide a little motivation.
5. This inspirational makeup bag, filled with all her favorites and maybe a gift card or two, would make a great gift!
6. A weighted blanket will keep them warm, help reduce anxiety, and replicate a warm hug from mom when she’s miles away.
7. The tassel was worth the hassle! These funny socks would make the perfect addition to a DIY graduation gift basket.
8. And if they’re a coffee lover, this mug is another basket filler that will get tons of use.
9. A tool kit is a must!! This is one of those gifts that they don’t know they want but will be grateful they have when they’re in a pinch.
10. This phone wallet is super convenient. Pop it on the back of your phone, tuck your cards and cash in, and boom…out the door you go.
11. This themed gift box comes with an “adult merit badge” coffee mug, 400 different fun facts, and a motivational book—a little bit of everything!
12. A 3-piece luggage set will get a bunch of mileage. While they make think it will be for all of their exotic adventures, their broke selves will really be using it for all their trips back home so they can do laundry for free.
13. Who doesn’t love a sweet treat?? This tin of delicious cookies will be gone in the blink of an eye, but the sugar high will keep them going for hours.

Wooden Words | Heart Ornaments | Pink Glitter Stems | White Glitter Stems | Pillow
This artificial tree was Kristy’s kids’ Christmas tree and instead of taking it down, she decided to keep it up and decorate it for each holiday throughout the year! The pink wooden words are from the BluGrainCreations shop on Etsy and now through February 28th, you can use code KRISTY10 for 10% off anything in the shop! The heart ornaments and pink and white glitter stems add a little sparkle to the tree, and the textured hearts throw pillow complements the rest of the neutral decor in her living room perfectly.
Calendar | Lantern Candle | Pillow | Ladder (Decocrated)
An entryway table tastefully decorated with clean, modern pieces makes a lovely focal point in the home. Mixing classic, year-round decor (like this wooden ladder from Decocrated or flip calendar) with holiday decor (like this “love” pillow and sparkly pillar candle) keeps the vibe classy yet adds a touch of fun and makes it easy to change with the seasons.
Wooden Tray | Beaded Garland | Plant | Candle
Fill a wooden tray with a faux plant, favorite candle, and beaded garland for a centerpiece that looks great on any table or shelf.
Top these adorable stacked wooden books with an artificial plant and place them on a shelf or end table for a sweet message to your loved ones.
For those of you with kiddos (or fur babies), this cute wooden sign will show just how much you love your little Valentines!!
Keeping your home smelling fresh and clean is easy with this room spray from Hearth & Hand with Magnolia. Spritz a little in the air to instantly refresh your space with a crisp, woodsy scent. Plus, the bottle looks great on display!
