Let me be real: It can sometimes be hard to find holiday gifts that’ll truly surprise and delight the people on your shopping list. Instead of getting your friends and family the obvious pricy presents—AirPods, air fryers and slippers—why not wow them with a few Etsy holiday gifts instead? That’s what I’m doing this year, especially because my friends and family are scattered around the country.
I can’t be with everyone I love in-person this year, so I want what I send them to be extra-special. And personally, I think a funny gift or something that shows how well you know the person always plays better than a shiny new kitchen appliance. It really is the thought that counts!
With that in mind, let’s give credit where credit is due—Etsy is the MVP when it comes to unique gifts. The retailer has so many handmade gifts and things that you’d never find anywhere else, and ordering from small businesses just gives me the warm fuzzies, especially compared to shopping at big box stores.
Small businesses need all the help they can get right now, and you’ll find Etsy’s array of holiday offerings to be incredible. So many of these sellers basically majored in personalization, so everything feels custom and special, not too at-home DIY or cheesy.
I combed through the limitless options on Etsy to find gifts for everyone on your list, whether you’re shopping for your friend who is always cold, or your astro-obsessed sister who loves repping her star sign. Read on for 15 gifts that are guaranteed to please.
PSA: You better get buying, because in 2020, the hardest part of holiday shopping is figuring out the shipping timing. There’s no time like the present to buy a present early!

This Custom Cursive Necklace
OK, so this style of script name necklace has had a major resurgence, no doubt thanks to the major SATC Carrie vibes. You can personalize the name, script size, length and finish, giving you tons of control over how it’s going to look.

This Very Necessary Christmas Mug
I don’t always love getting people holiday-themed gifts during the holidays, but a new mug is always a good idea, especially if your loved one can’t resist the Hallmark channel during this time of year. TBH, who can resist???

This Astrology-Lover’s Dream Pendant
If your friend uses their star sign as a way to introduce themselves, it’s time to get them a Zodiac necklace. Instead of a boring old bull or fish, this dainty necklace displays the sign’s constellation, and you can even add on a birthstone accent!

This Bath Time Box Set

This Clever Batch Cocktail Kit
If your friend wants cocktails all of the time but isn’t going to bars right now (practice social-distancing, people!) this is definitely thr gift for them. These cocktail infusion kits turn their favorite bourbon or whiskey into a bougie Old Fashioned like the kind they’d order out.

This Gorgeous Art Print
This stunning, minimalist print is great for any aspiring art collector. Plus, you’re just paying for the download, so you can take it to a store to get it printed yourself for way less than what art normally costs. You also don’t have to anxiously wait for it to ship, and you can choose a frame that suits your gift-ees home perfectly.

These Bachelorette-Approved Coasters
If your friend is a huge JoJo fan, get them these boho chic coasters JoJo and Etsy’s macrame collab. They’d also look great underneath tiny plant pots or candles, FYI.
