Gifting panic is real and we’ve all felt it. The last minute rush to the market to get something readymade might have landed us a gift to go but in order to give great gifts, you have to take a great responsibility, and that is planning ahead.
2026 is the year we plan gifts out, and this is your monthly gifting calendar, curated thoughtfully and full of thoughtful gift ideas, so you’re never stuck Googling “last minute gift ideas” two hours before the function. (Feel free to save this later because THIS is going to be a life-saver.)
Here’s are some unmissable and unique gifts in 2026!
January
First month of the year calls for soft resets and new beginnings. New Year is, of course, at the top of our lists for gifting but people also have their birthdays and some fresh starts.
What to Gift:
- Journals and planners to start afresh
- Self-care kits (throw in candles, scrubs, soaps, teas, calm-core things, or a customized hamper that we can always help you with.
February

What to Gift:

THIS is your perfect month for organizing and also probably getting invited to house parties.
