Why is it that couples can be so difficult to buy for? It often feels much easier to shop for individuals, right? Perhaps it’s because we tend to know one person in the couple better than we know them as a pair. With countless options available, finding a gift that truly captures their unique relationship and shared experiences can be a challenge.

At Willinglee, we believe that the best gifts are those that create lasting memories and bring couples closer together. That’s why we’ve curated a list of our seven favorite gift experiences. Feel free to take inspiration or adapt them to suit your needs—you know the couple best. We hope these ideas spark your creativity!

At Willinglee, we always wrap our gifts in hand-painted Kraft paper and tie them up with a twine bow. So when it comes to gift-giving in my personal life, sometimes I don’t feel I have the energy to wrap something so beautifully. But whenever I receive a gift that’s delightfully wrapped, I am more easily able to appreciate the time and care that went into preparing it.

What’s more fun, for example, than a paper-tablecloth-covered card table piled high with brightly-colored birthday presents, each one dawning one of those shiny bows that come pre-built? What’s sweeter than a gift wrapped effortfully by your kid, hand-drawn card included? And what’s a more nostalgic holiday sight than wrapped gifts under the tree or next to the menorah?

To help you bring back those warm and cozy feelings (while keeping things earth-friendly!), we’re here to give you 6 gift wrap ideas that will have your recipients second-guessing if they even want to tear into them at all.

Take it from us: the earlier you wrap, the merrier your December will be. To save you from the last-minute wrapping frenzy and infuse your holiday preparations with some early festive joy, we've got just the remedy for you: a delightful holiday playlist! So, grab your tape and scissors, and let's make wrapping a celebration in itself!

It’s a special Mother’s Day at Willinglee. We’re excited to announce that we’re expecting our first kiddo this Summer! Having gone through infertility challenges, we understand that not everyone has the same experience and are empathetic towards those who may be struggling with infertility or the loss of a mother or child. Whether you’re a new mom, grieving a mom, or pondering how the heck you can express your love and appreciation for the woman who always put you first, we’re here to help you gift the perfect thing.

A gift for Valentine’s Day is great, but for that special personal in your life, you’ll probably want to pair it with a date. It’s going to make the day more memorable and is almost guaranteed to score you more points! So if you’re not sure what to do this Valentine’s Day, don’t worry, I’ve got you covered.

I picked out 13 of the best date ideas I could think of (and find online) and presented each one to Abby to be scored on a scale from 1 to 10.

If you tend to wait until the last minute to do your holiday shopping, the news headlines today might make you think twice. But don’t fret! Some of the best gifts don’t come from overseas. What’s more: some don’t come from a store at all! Focusing on those tough-to-shop-for folks, we’ve compiled a list of products from shop-small, US companies and offer alternative experiential suggestions, too. Whether you choose to buy from local makers or gift something not-so-tangible, here are some options resistant to the supply chain shortage.

So even if a mom says she doesn’t want anything, every mom loves to be appreciated for the sacrifice she gave in raising us… the majority of which time we were either totally incompetent creatures, raging brats, insolent teenagers, or money-sapping young adults. For this reason, when Mother’s Day comes around (it’s on May 9th this year) and we ask her, “what can we get you?,” it’s undoubtedly important not to listen to her advice when she responds, “I don’t want anything—save your money.”

Buying a gift for clients, colleagues or a boss shouldn’t be something you have to settle for. Most full-time employees spend 45 - 55 hours per week at work, which means the people you’re surrounded by every weekday may as well be your adopted family. Make a commitment to WOW your work family this year.
