‘Tis the season for graduations! It is officially “Maycember” as I like to call it. May has grown to have all of the craziness of December, friends. And one fun facet of this time of calendar overload is graduations and with them – gifts. Never fear, we have fabulous grad gift ideas for you here to make your gifting to the grads in your life easy as can be!
For those grads who are not headed off to college, gifting can be a little trickier. A friend asked me for ideas for this recently and I think you could go with a mani/pedi gift certificate or a spa day to celebrate all of their hard work, a gift certificate for a celebratory dinner out or… jewelry! Jewelry is nice because it commemorates a special time in someone’s life with a piece that can be worn for many years to come. Fond memories of that time will come flooding back every time they put on the piece of jewelry – and that is really special.
Classic designs are the way to go if you’re not sure what type of jewelry a person likes, as in the case of a friend’s daughter who you don’t know well. Below are a few pieces that I have sold for literally decades and remain bestsellers, standing the test of time.

For grads who are headed off to college next year or who just graduated from college, color is the name of the game! Gifting something in their college colors is a super fun idea and a great way to commemorate this time in their lives. If they’re headed off to college in the Fall, they’ll love having some classic jewelry in their college colors – which is especially great for game days! If they’ve just graduated from college, a piece in their alma mater’s colors is a really neat way to remember their time there. And these dainty designs can be layered up beautifully to incorporate more than one color for their school. Below are some fun (and colorful!) ideas. Don’t see the colors you need here or want a custom design with more than one color on it? Send us an email – we are happy to help!

Need a gift for a boy who is graduating? Colorful jewelry probably isn’t the answer, but we’ve got some fun ideas here for them, too! We love this Monogrammed ice cube mold. If he’s headed off to a corporate job, this leather folio would be a cool gift, as would this leather wallet – to hold all the money he’s going to make! Another fun idea would be these monogrammed cuff links, which he could wear for years to come. Of course, a gift certificate to a fabulous or favorite restaurant is always welcomed by guys, too!
