You will find sentimental, fun, and practical gifts, all right here at Good & Perfect Gifts. Here are a few ideas that graduates will love to get you inspired.
Travel Essentials
High school grads will be on their way to college, and college grads will be moving to wherever they happen to find a new job. In both cases, that involves some travel. New luggage is an excellent gift to take along on these new adventures. Another great idea is a travel emergency kit for the car. You will know that your graduate is prepared for any possibility if they keep a kit in their car with jumper cables, maps (in case the GPS conks out), tools, duct tape, first aid kit, a flashlight, and other items that could come in handy in an emergency.
A nice travel cell phone charger is a good idea too. You could pair that with a loaded gas card to help them out with a few fill-ups, and our Autoglam auto air fresheners, which come in both manly and more delicate scents.
Beginner's Cooking Necessities
Graduates out on their own will need to feed themselves. A beginner's cookbook will definitely come in handy for those that are new to the kitchen. If they are fairly proficient with the basics, put together a cookbook of your favorite recipes for their favorite dishes.
A gift basket of gourmet food mixes will be much appreciated. They store nicely in a small dorm room and offer a delicious snack or meal, depending on which mixes you buy. Good & Perfect Gifts is filled with a wide variety of different types of mixes: dips, soups, pasta, slow cooker, and beer bread to name a few. We also carry some wonderful gourmet coffees for those early morning classes or new jobs that they will be attending.
Don't forget about the kitchen equipment. They will need plates, cups, cookware, potholders, cutlery, and the like. If they will be living in a dorm room, make sure it's unbreakable, easy to care for, and takes up very little space.
Items For Everyday Living
The graduates will be living on their own without daily help from Mom and Dad. The items that were always magically there around the house won't be unless they go shopping, or you make up a gift basket of essentials. The type of things to put into this cleaning supplies gift basket will be cleaners, paper towels, cloth towels, sponges, broom, dustpan, and other like items that they probably took for granted living at home.
There will be laundry too. Probably lots of laundry. To encourage them to do it on their own rather than bring it all home to you, add a few laundry items to that cleaning gift basket. Aim for calming scents to help relieve stress while studying for finals or dealing with job deadlines. Our Tyler Glamorous Wash Laundry Detergent can do just that. A hamper or laundry basket with a big bow makes an excellent container to hold everything. Add a few rolls of quarters to the mix, and they're ready to hit the laundromat.
Something Sentimental
A graduation is a milestone in a person's life, and a special gift that will evoke memories of that day is a perfect present. Something to put on the wall of their new place with an inspirational quote to inspire them every day is nice. A beautiful piece of jewelry or a watch will be a treasured gift. Our gift shop has many lovely pieces. Brighton and Kameleon each offer gorgeous jewelry that can be bought now, then added to when special events happen in the future. Perfect for tracking many happy memories.
If you will be throwing a party for your graduate, give Bridgette a call and have her make a special treat from Sugar B's Cakes & Pastries, located inside Good & Perfect Gifts in Eldon.
