Every year it is quite a job to think about what to buy for everyone for Christmas. At some point you think you’ve had it all. How are you going to excel again this year? You think especially carefully about Christmas gifts for your in-laws. Whether you have only been together with your friend for a short time or not, it remains a struggle to come up with an original gift. No worries, here you have the best Christmas gifts listed.
1. A (homemade) cake
DIY gifts are the best because it shows that you have put time and effort into the gift. Everyone appreciates this! And hey, who doesn’t love cake? Although you do need to have baking skills. Unfortunately you don’t have one? Then buy a nice, ready-made Christmas cake!

2. An advent calendar full of tasty goodies
It’s just true: food makes us happy! Especially in this month we can’t get enough of all the tasty snacks. You can fill a large basket with all your parents-in-law’s favorites. Wine, cheese, chocolate, sausage, toast… Or you can fill this personal advent calendar with all kinds of goodies! In that case, make sure you don’t put food in it, which will run away after a while… Instead, add some nice little gifts!

3. Chic box of chocolates
Just like wine, chocolate often does well. Have it beautifully packaged and you are completely Christmas ready.

4. Wine is nice
If you really have no idea what to surprise your in-laws with, buy a bottle of wine. Nine times out of ten you will be right with a Chardonnay. Or go for an award-winning wine, such as one of the Hamersma wines (that’s a wine critic). To make sure you don’t make a bad purchase, ask your sweetheart what their favorite is. And voilà, you can celebrate the holidays with your in-laws with peace of mind.

5. A cookbook
Do your in-laws enjoy cooking? Then (Christmas) cookbooks are ideal for them. This way they can experiment with all kinds of dishes and prepare for the next family dinner. Go for one of Jamie Oliver’s classics or, for example, a vegetarian cookbook.

6. A personalized Christmas bauble
To stay in the Christmas spirit, you can buy a Christmas bauble in a neutral color. Write a sweet message on it, wrap the Christmas bauble festively and you are ready for it. To make it a little more personal, you can give a Christmas bauble with a photo of you and your partner. How cute! The disadvantage is that these are very popular, so it is not wise for a last minute Christmas gift. Are you looking for last minute Christmas gifts? Then go for several Christmas baubles with your names engraved in them. Just as personal!

7. Quality time
Do your in-laws deserve some time together? Then give them a voucher for a day away. You can buy a voucher online, in the store or put something together yourself. There are so many activities they can do. From the zoo to a day at the spa. It just depends on what they like. Are your in-laws real homebodies? Then a small fireplace is the perfect Christmas gift for your in-laws! Just some quality time at home on the couch.

8. Memories booklet
Sometimes the best gifts aren’t physical. Of all the Christmas gifts for parents-in-law, outings, dinners or other memories with their children, daughter-in-law and/or son are of course the best! You can literally give an outing as a gift, but it can also be done differently. How about a nice book in which they can share their memories? Then with one sentence a day to make it special!

9. Bunch of red roses
Okay, of course you don’t necessarily have to get red roses. But a flower or plant for your home is always a good idea. Your in-laws will certainly appreciate that you arrive with a little something. With a beautiful bouquet of flowers (or dried flowers) you immediately score some plus points. Also buy a beautiful vase immediately, which should of course not be missing!

10. A candlelight dinner
What better Christmas gift than a candlelight dinner? We all love eating out, especially when we don’t have to pay for it ourselves. Are you looking for delicious, romantic Christmas gifts for your in-laws? Surprise your in-laws with a dinner voucher from their favorite restaurant. If you’re a bit lucky, you and your loved one might be able to come along. Although you can also buy a beautiful candlestick. Then you simply invite yourself to your parents-in-law’s home dinner.

12. Perfume for the home
Perfume is nice as a gift for one person, but maybe not if you are looking for Christmas gifts for your in-laws together. Although you can buy perfume for their house! Huh? Yes, that really exists. Handy if you go gourmet at Christmas, get rid of bad odors!
