The holiday season is coming up, I want to share with you some of my favorite neighbor gift ideas. These printables make for quick and simple neighbor gifts for everyone in your neighborhood.
Each year, I try to give simple gifts to my friends, church community, and neighbors. To me, it’s a simple way to say “thank you” for being in our lives this year.
Most years, I stress myself out more about WHAT to take to people than I should. I usually feel the need to come up with something “new and creative.” I’ve realized over the years that I don’t always need to do that.
Our Christmas Gift Delivery Traditions
Being the “Christmas procrastinator” that I am, I find myself frequently scrambling in the last few days before Christmas to get all of our gifts done and delivered. One year, we had ALL of our deliveries to do on Christmas Eve, and I was super stressed (had to get home to make dinner, etc).
We put Christmas music in the car and let the kids dress up in their crazy Christmas attire. They each took turns placing the gifts on our friend’s porches. It turned out to be SO MUCH FUN.
It was also a great way to keep anxious kids preoccupied on Christmas Eve! We came home, had dinner, and everyone went to bed. It was so much better than the years previous when kids were bouncing off the walls with excitement.
After that, it became our annual tradition to deliver treats on Christmas Eve (we even take the dog with us sometimes!). We’ve had to switch it to New Year’s Eve a few times, due to travel, but it’s something that we all look forward to every year now.
Should you keep spare Christmas gifts handy to give to neighbors or friends who might stop by with a gift for you?
We usually don’t do this. Our family tradition is to deliver friend and neighbor gifts on Christmas Eve or New Year’s Eve.
If someone drops something by for us, we just make sure to gift them something when we do our deliveries. In my opinion, you can look like you’re caught off guard if you go grab a gift out of a basket for them. It’s better to deliver it in person at a later date.
What if your Neighbors do not Celebrate Christmas?
I love to spread cheer for the New Year as well. In fact, for the last two years, our family has gifted boxes of donuts to our friends on New Year’s Eve if you have friends and neighbors that do not celebrate Christmas, drop something off for the New Year instead.
25+ Simple & Clever Neighbor Christmas Gifts & Ideas
If you’re a mom, I’m guessing you might be a bit overwhelmed by all of the Holiday prep ahead of you. You probably also don’t want to take on a big DIY craft either especially if you have multiple people to create gifts for.
If you’re stumped for ideas for what to take to friends & neighbors this year. I’ve rounded up more than 25 ideas for you.
Things like Cute Christmas Mason Jar gifts, labels for homemade treats, and cookies! Some are crazy simple; some are a bit more involved. Each one of them would make a great gift for that particular person on your list.
Most come with free printables, but a few have paid ones. I never mind supporting a fellow small business owner and figured you would not mind either!
