The Problem: They Already Own Everything
Some people are a nightmare to buy for. They treat themselves all year, their cupboards are full, and every “normal” gift idea feels boring. If you’re shopping for someone who has everything, the answer isn’t more stuff – it’s something more personal.
That’s where personalised Christmas gifts come in. In 2025, the biggest gifting trend isn’t the latest gadget, it’s thoughtful, customised presents that feel one-of-a-kind.
Why Personalised Gifts Work for “Have Everything” People
Personalised gifts are perfect for this type of person because:
- You’re not competing with what they already own – you’re giving them something made just for them.
- They feel meaningful – a name, date, or inside joke instantly makes a simple item special.
- They’re still practical – mugs, tote bags, keyrings and ornaments get used and seen, not hidden away.
Instead of asking “What don’t they have?”, ask:
“What do they use every day that I can make personal?”
“What do they use every day that I can make personal?”
Personalised Christmas Gift Ideas They Won’t Already Own
1. Custom “In-Joke” Mug
Take a phrase they always say, a nickname, or a family joke and put it on a mug. Add their name on the back for that extra touch.
Examples:
- “Being my brother is the only gift you need – [Name]”
- “Powered by coffee and chaos – [Name]”
- “[Name]’s Christmas Mug – Hands Off”
This works brilliantly for siblings, partners and colleagues.
2. First Christmas or Milestone Ornaments
If they’ve had a big year, mark it with a personalised ornament:
- “Our First Christmas in Our New Home – 2025”
- “Baby’s First Christmas – [Name]”
- “[Name] – New Job 2025”
They might have plenty of decorations, but they won’t have this one.
3. Personalised Tote Bag They’ll Actually Use
Think about how they spend their time:
- A teacher: “Miss [Name]’s Marking Bag”
- A busy parent: “Mum’s Emergency Snack Bag”
- A book lover: “[Name]’s Library Haul Bag”
It’s practical, easy to store, and feels tailored to their life.
4. Custom Keyrings and Bag Tags
Perfect as a small but thoughtful gift or stocking filler. Ideas:
- 3D printed name tags for bags
- Wooden keyrings with initials or a short message
- Bag tags for gym bags, work bags or school bags
These are ideal when you want something personal but don’t want to spend a lot.
5. Personalised Desk or Work Gifts
For someone who lives at their desk:
- A mug with their role and name
- A keyring or ornament with their business logo
- A small personalised sign or decoration for their workspace
They probably have plenty of generic office bits – a personalised one will stand out.
How to Pick the Right Personalised Gift (In 3 Simple Questions)
When you’re stuck, ask yourself:
- What do they use every day?
- What do they talk about a lot? (kids, pets, job, hobbies)
- Can I add their name, a date or a private joke to that?
The answer to those three questions is usually your perfect gift.
