December holidays are coming and we are always thinking about the best gifts for our loved ones. In a survey conducted in November 2021 in Mexico, around 68 percent of respondents said they would give clothes or shoes for Christmas, while only 26 percent would give wines and spirits.

In the end, a gift is about making the person feel special, it doesn’t matter the price, what matters is why we are giving “it” at this time of the year. Remember that the presentation is almost half of the gift, don’t forget to be creative and original, try to use recycled papers or objects to decorate. 

I share with you a list of the 10 best gifts for this season:

1. A book, it is always nice to receive a book that inspires us at this time of the year. It also becomes an ideal companion for the vacations and rest. 

2. A personalized mug, either with the person’s name, with a special phrase or a symbol that means something special to both of you. 

3. A self-care kit, this option can be a nice gift for someone you know likes wellness products. From a collection of essential oils, face or hair masks, ointment, creams, handmade soaps, etc., at San Miguel we have many options. 

4. An original notebook and a special pen, this gift invites to write, of course. With this you are not only giving the object, but also the moment.

5. A membership to a gym or yoga center. With this gift, you are giving many good moments of physical activation and, with it, the gift of feeling good!

6. A perfume or lotion is a classic gift, it is perfect, as long as you know well the person’s tastes. If not, it may be kept for a long time. 

7. A voucher for a trip or an experience can be very exciting. Whether you already have the destination planned or you plan it together. To accumulate experiences is to generate unforgettable memories. 

8. A box of chocolates is always a great gift! Wrapped and with a bow!

9. A bottle of good wine, even wines from the region to encourage local consumption. There are many wineries in the region that offer great wines. 

10. A SPA day, who doesn’t want to end the year feeling relaxed? Imagine a full day to relax, they will surely remember this gift forever. 

Happy holidays!
