Gift Guide: Congrats, Grad!

Since I know several people who will be graduating over the next several weeks, I thought it would be fun to gather up a few gift ideas for graduates!  You can check out all the links in the full post over on the Etsy New York team blog! :)

Tell me: Are you planning to attend a graduation in the next few months?

    These are great! I’m having a really low key grad this coming weekend (my dad’s health made my parents unable to travel so no family will be around and I crapped out on the academic job market so I don’t have a ton to celebrate) but I still hope I get a thoughtful present or two.

      Thanks Courtney! Aww, I’m sorry to hear about your tough luck with the job market, but you definitely still have reason to celebrate! Tomorrow’s the big day, right? Hope it’s a great one! :)

    Great idea, they are all so sweet. Can’t wait until I have finished my degrees. Only have until the end of this year at university.

    The “Your Future is so Bright…” card looks so nice and fitting for the occasion, not to mention witty.

    I am so glad that none of these gifts look like paperweights. Who wants a paperweight? I’m not even sure what they do … I love your ideas. These gifts are super cute and look personal.

      Thanks Bonnie! Haha, I don’t know what you do with a paperweight either, other than use it for decoration maybe?!

  12. Those are all very thoughtful and I’m sure helpful for those looking for a grad gift. The Sunglasses are my fave.
