The holidays are in full swing! And, no matter what you’re celebrating this year, gift-giving is often harder than it seems. Whether you are shopping for your future mother-in-law, bridesmaids or anyone in between, we know it can be tricky to find something for everyone; especially if you don’t know them very well.
If you’re still on the hunt, look no further than Gray Duck Gifts, a local Colorado gift company. Gray Duck Gifts specializes in creating highly personalized and curated gift boxes for every occasion (ahem, perfect for Christmas). Each box is creatively sourced, thoughtfully designed and beautifully packaged with a handwritten note in each. It’s gift-giving at its finest: innovative, memorable and totally stress–free!
Below we’re sharing a few of our favorites along with some great gift-giving tips for you to remember this holiday season, and beyond. Oh, and if you order by December 18th, they will arrive just in time to pop them under the tree!
This gift box is perfect for your future mother-in-law! This gift set comes stocked with the cutest notebooks on the market, Rifle Paper Company, perfect for to-do lists on go or grocery lists at the store, a candle and hand wash.

If one of your bridesmaids, sisters or soon-to-be sister in law is expecting then this gift set is the cutest present around!

When creating a custom box with Gray Duck Gifts, keep these tips in mind:
Include a Local Treat:
Local gifts will help your friends and family get a taste for where you call home.
Incorporate Unique Elements of your Relationship:
Did you meet at a specific location, or have a memory that just jumps out at you? If so, include an item that pays tribute to this moment.
Practical and Essential:
Getting creative is always fun, but if the gift is something the recipient will never use again, it may be something to rethink. Gifts people will use more than once are always appreciated.
Remember, gift-giving should be fun! The holidays are truly about spending time with your loved ones and gifts are just an added bonus! Stay tuned later this week for more holiday gift ideas.
