20 gift ideas for every occasion

Are you in search for the perfect gift? I'm here for you!

During the year there are many opportunities or needs for gifts, be it birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, Christmas, Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, or some other festive occasion. So if you are in search of a gift or even if you want to schedule the gifts you want to buy for all or some of these occasions, I have some suggestions for you.

I have created the ultimate gift guide for people who love Scandinavian design and other modern trends, quality and high aesthetic in decoration.


1. Towels, for a bathroom renewal

A new set fluffy towels is a simple, but always useful and desirable gift. It is also something we often want, but we do not get for ourselves. So they will definitely be appreciated!

Towels with special designs and patterns can give a wonderful touch on the bathroom and of course the cotton towels that have organic cotton for greater absorption are a MUST. 


2. Diffuser, for a spa experience

These aromatic sticks in a beautiful container are from the Swedish Eightmood collection. They can be used in the bathroom, the hallway or in a decorative tray with candles in the living room. It is a good choice for a gift, because in addition to the wonderful scent, the diffuser has an elegant design that will add style and character.


3. Candlesticks, to illuminate our evenings

At first, I tried to limit myself to one of the dozens of candlesticks available on the Hintsdeco site. But this was difficult so I ended up with three, each for a different style. 

The first candle is inspired by brutalist architecture. Using different mathematical angles, the conference points of the columns have different heights, creating a strong expression. The second is made of terracotta, which gives the candlestick a rustic and natural look and is inspired by ancient columns. The third is made of iron and has a very original, playful shape.


4. Fish carpet, for a dose of originality

We all have at least one person in our lives who loves dynamic graphic prints and pop art. This carpet is perfect for this person. 

The original Koi carpet by the Scandinavian House Broste Copenhagen, is designed in Koi -shaped fish and made of high quality cotton. The beautiful vibrant colors will give life to the space and create a unique environment wherever you place it. The fish also symbolizes success and brings professional good luck.


5. Cookware, for the Home Chef of the group

Don't worry, these are not the only kitchen ideas on this list. But I decided to start with two Cookware that are ideal for any home chef / host.

The first option is the large terracotta saucepan, Roaster Hazel by Muubs. You can use it to cook meals or to serve delicious dishes such as Asian dishes in the wok. It is also suitable for great cooking in the oven. The second option is the Hasle pan from the Scandinavian company Broste Copenhagen. An elegant fireproof choice with a striking color.

The great thing with both of these options is that they combine the usability of awesome cooking, with the modern look, which makes them appropriate options to serve directly on the table.


6. Decorative tray, to keep your space neat

When I am looking for a gift, something like this is always one of my options. It is an object that combines elegance with usability. It is ideal for all small objects that you need in your daily life (so they should be easily accessible) and you are looking for a beautiful way to keep them neat: jewelry, perfume, toiletries, keys, coins or even an aromatic candle for additional well -being and a spa sense. 


7. Martini Glasses, for Cocktail Hour at home

This exciting, colorful mixture of soft green and pink is ideal for any festive occasion. The perfect touch for every party. Also the gift package includes a cocktail recipe card! Could it be better?



8. A set of mugs, for the next tea party

9. Fun dishes, for all meals

This series of dishes of Musango Eats I really like because when I see them, I feel that I eat in a Mexican restaurant or in a Latin American city. The Sunrise dish has the perfect shape and color for an impressive, vibrant art de la table. Spending time eating with family and friends just became more fun!


10. Cheese Platter, for the host that has it all

We close the options for kitchen items dynamically! Maybe the person you are planning to get a gift for is an avid host and has it all: special glasses and dishes and cookware. But do they have a cheese platter? And if so, it it as impressive as this?

The beautiful marble plate is suitable for tasteful cheese, tapas, snacks or as a decorative element on the table. It is made of green marble and exudes excellent elegance and refinement, adding a robust and timeless beauty to every table.


11. Table lamps, for all tastes

If I had a hard time choosing only one product in previous categories, you can imagine my dilemma in table lamps. Those of you who have been reading my articles for a long time may know the importance I give to the right lighting. Proper lighting highlights the details of the space, creates the ideal atmosphere and aesthetically upgrades any room.

So I chose four table lamps so you can choose the perfect gift for your own favorite person.

The first is the elegant and stylish Muri table lamp by Hubsch. Made of durable metal in timeless black, this lamp is not only functional, but also a statement piece in each room. It also has Dimmable function that allows you to adjust the lighting to the desired level.

The second is the orbit table lamp, a sophisticated addition to each room. Its elegant design combines glass and metal, giving it a modern and timeless look. 

The third is the handmade Balzac table lamp, made of natural ratan in combination with a brass base and structure. The combination of these two opposite materials and the design takes us to tropical destinations. 

Finally, Urban Nature Culture Amsterdam's table lamp Izumi is very unique. Nature and simplicity join forces to give the warmest lighting to your space. The surface of Izumi has an earthy volcanic white finish, exuding an effortless aesthetic.


12. Kami jar, for a touch of Japandi

101 Copenhagen jar jar kami mini ceramic white 13xi25 cm 101 CopenhagenSee the product

In Japanese Kami () means paper. The Kami jar therefore emphasizes the aesthetics of crumpled paper and is an ode to the Japanese way of working with the art of paper. The Kami jar has a special surface that emphasizes beautiful organic design. Polished inside with waterproof lacquer, the Kami is 100% waterproof and can be used for fresh flowers.

I chose this jar as a very original choice that I think will impress as a gift. But you will find dozens of other options for vases οn the site of Hintsdeco. So I suggest you take a look before you make your final decision. 


13. Coffee Table Book, for the reader

Coffee table books are an excellent choice for the reading and design lover, as they are a very special but dynamic decorative choice.

Since we are now so close to the beginning of the new school year, I decided to include a choice for a back to school gift for the children's room. I have talked enough about how Mustard Made products are ideal for the children's or teenager's room or even for the college student home in the article Back to School: With Mustard Made's colorful cabinets. So I won't expand again! I think these funky lockers are doing all the talking on their own.


17. A clock, for an easy gift selection

I wanted to include Hubsch's Clock in this list, because I think it's a safe gift, even for someone we don't know so well. This makes it a good choice for an office gift or circumstances like Secret Santa. Made of robust metal, this watch is not only durable, but also adds a touch of elegance to the space. It can be mounted on a shelf or hang on the wall.

An ideal choice for any minimal interior. But you know your loved ones best, so I suggest you browse our rich collection of posters before you choose.
