7 Thoughtful Gift Ideas For Women That Will Make Her So Happy

If you’re looking for gift ideas for women that are hard to buy for, you’re in the right place!

This lineup is all about coming up with out of the box gift ideas that she is going to love.

These gifts work great for Christmas, birthdays, or any special occasion for that matter!

You should know that this post is being written by a woman (and Mom) who is blessed to have so many wonderful things.

It’s probably safe to put me in the ‘hard to buy for’ category! πŸ˜‰

But don’t worry, I’m here to help you come up with ideas for that similar person in your life.

With a little forethought and guidance you are going to knock this out of the park!

I’d be willing to bet that she will LOVE any of the gifts on this list.

Don’t believe me?!? Let’s get to it!

#1) Pampering Services Gift Idea For The Hard Working Woman

Every hard working woman I know loves a day at the spa!

It’s not something that most women generally spend money on, which makes it the perfect gift.

With a quick google search you can find spas in your area (with good reviews) where you can purchase a massage, pedicure, facial or combination of the three!

Beyond getting the gift, I want you to pause and think a minute about the delivery.

Yes, a gift card for spa services is a wonderful gift! 

But it’s also small, and will likely come in a tiny envelope.

Why not present it with a pretty bouquet of flowers, her favorite candy, or even a favorite homemade sweet treat. 

Doing this will show you’ve really gone above and beyond to make her feel special!

#2) Plan An Experience – A Creative Gift Idea For Women

Sometimes it’s not about the things we buy, it’s about the THINGS WE DO!

Does the woman you’re gifting have a favorite music group, show, museum, or getaway spot?

If so do your best to clear your schedules (tell her it’s for something much less exciting) and then break the news when the day arrives!

Take time to think through the travel plans if your experience calls for it, reservations, etc.

In a lot of families, women are the ones filling in the details and keeping everything running smoothly!

Show her you thought of every last details in gifting her an experience that she loves. 

It could be simple or extravagant, but what matters is that it was thoughtfully planned just for her.

#3) Gift Her Luxury Skincare That Actually Works

Ok you guys, disclaimer here – I am OBSESSED with this skincare line (and also sell it).

I have tried A LOT of high end skincare products, and I have yet to find something that works as well as this does.

If the woman you are buying for is interested in getting glowing skin and longer lashes than this gift is going to maker her so excited!

Maybe you’re reading this thinking… “I have no idea what I’d even order for her” don’t worry!

With loads of product and skincare knowledge, I’m here to personally help you pick out the perfect products for her.

I also will serve as her personal consultant assistant after you present the gift to ensure she gets the results she’s looking for.

You can visit my website directly here, or emails at theunlikelyhostess@hotmail.com

This stuff is clinically proven to get results, and if it doesn’t live up to your expectations you can get your money back.

There isn’t another gift on this list that comes with that kind of offer!  

#4) The Things I Love About You Jar + Gift Card

Have you heard of the five love languages?

If not, in short it’s a method of categorizing the ways people give and receive love.

Spoiler alert – tons of women give and receive love through ‘Words Of Affirmation.’

If someone takes time to write down the things they love in small bits, collects them in a jar, and gives it as a gift her emotional response might shock you!

This is a perfect gift to get help from your kids and family.

If you really want to take it to the next level, present this with flowers or a gift card to her favorite store!

I included this gift of words jar in my Mothers Day Gift Ideas, which is another great spot to check for gift ideas for women.

#5) Customizable Jewelry Gift Idea For Women

Anyone can go to a store and pick out a pretty piece of jewlery.

But what about one that was made specifically for her?

These customizable necklaces are from one of my favorite Etsy Sellers Diamond Rose Jewelry.

They have a lot more to choose from than the necklace pictured above.

But it is one of my favorite because it includes a birth stone pendant, and letter initial.

You will have to pick between silver and gold.

Pick the color that she wears the most (which means you’ll have to take notice πŸ˜‰ )!

#6) Creative Gift For Women – Organize A Surprise Visitor

If you can pull it off, this one is almost sure to make her cry!

Does the woman in your life has a best friend, sister, or someone they are close to and long to see?

Why not see if you can do some orchestrating behind the scenes to arrange a surprise visitor?

There is nothing better than the surprised look on face when an old friend walks through the door!

You could take it a step further by making them dinner reservations or helping free up schedules so that they can spend some quality time together.

#7) Gift Her Some Of Her Time Back

Speaking of time, we all know how important it is!

It seems like we never have enough, and there is always something begging for more of it.

A really creative gift idea is to find a way to give her some of her time back!

How?  Think about what you could help take something off of her plate. 

Household chores, child pick up, routine errand, meal prep, clean up etc. 

A fun ideas is to draft a little contract outlining what you’re stepping up to help her with.

It could be a simple word document, and something you work on with your kids! 

Be prepared to hold up your end of the bargain, and encourage her to replace the time she would have spent doing that task with something else that she enjoys.

She will feel loved and appreciated every time you pitch in.

Happy Gifting Giving My Friends!

I hope you found some gift ideas for the woman in your life!

Cheers for now.
