Happy holidays! If you’re looking for meaningful gifts for Christian women you care about, you’re in the right place.

This list is divided into three sections: faith, feminine, and fun (and if you scroll to the end, I have a couple suggestions for men, too). The items are organized from least to most expensive. Do you have gift ideas I missed? Share them in the comments to help me with my own shopping!

A quick heads-up: some of the links in this post are affiliate links. If you decide to make a purchase, I earn a small commission. The best part is, shopping though these links doesn’t cost you an extra cent, but the commissions help fund the expenses of this blog. Thank you for supporting our work!

Faith

If the women in your life love to grow in their faith, these gifts will be perfect.

High-Quality Pens for Note Taking

If your friends love writing, a nice set of pens is a thoughtful gift. You can gift the whole pack or divide it and share a few pens with each friend.

For journals or Bibles:

Pigma Micron Pens 05 in Colors 4-Pack— in my opinion, the 05 nib size is larger than I like to write with my small Bible margins. However, I do like these for underlining verses or putting circles around certain words.

Pigma Micron Fineliner Pens Black Variety Pack—this pack is ideal to give to a single person so they can see which nib size they like best (nib size means how thick the ink flows)

Pigma Micron Fineliner Pens 03 Black 6-Pack— this pack is great if you want to break it up and give a pen to multiple friends. I chose a middle of the ground nib size that works well in journals and Bibles.

For journals and notebooks:

Crayola Pip Squeaks Marker Set—let me tell you, these are so underrated! They’re easy to use, they make great faux calligraphy and cursive letters for a fun little moment in your notes. And they’re washable! AND $13 for 65 markers is unbeatable, you could gift each friend their favorite color and then some!

Tombow Dual Brush Pens—if you click that link, you can see all sorts of individual colors. Or you can look at some of my favorite packs below. These are more advanced than the Crayola Pip Squeaks, but here’s what I like: the colors are richer and the tones of these brush pens are more grown up, you could say; and the dual tips are unbeatable. That means one side has a fine tip, the other side has a brush, for calligraphy, doodles, or coloring in.

Here’s a beautiful cool toned Tombow pack

Here’s a pack for neutral lovers

Here’s my personal favorite, the Just Peachy Pack!

ESV Scripture Journals

These journals are available for all 66 books of the Bible. They’re perfect for someone who likes to read, study, and take notes. You can purchase individual Bible books as Scripture Journals. Most are $5-10 on Amazon and ship free with Prime. All you have to do is search the title of the Bible book you want with the phrase “ESV scripture journal” or “Illuminated ESV Scripture Journal” and you’ll find them quickly.

Additionally, there are different sets available.

ESV Study Bible

This Bible is a great resource to gift someone who is new to Bible study or looking to deepen their understanding of Scripture. 

The maps and graphs inside the ESV Study Bible are helpful visual tools. The cross-reference column helps connect different areas of the Bible together. And the footnotes provide helpful context for harder-to-read passages.

As of the time that this blog is posted, the ESV Study Bible is 60% off on Amazon. Major savings!!! Click here to see it.

Gather in the Garden 2025 Magazine Subscription

If you want to give a gift that keeps on giving, consider a 2025 subscription to my own Christian women’s magazine! To gift a subscription, all you have to do is put your loved one’s name and shipping address in the shipping section. There are quarterly and yearly payment plans available, and you can even order a gift postcard to wrap up for your friend, announcing their gifted subscription! Click here to see the postcards, and then click right here to get your magazine subscription!

There’s a big list of Bible study tools right here on my website. If you want to see more of those, click this link and I’ll take you there!

Feminine

For the woman who loves beauty and elegance, these gifts are sure to bring joy.

Crunchi Lip Crayons

Here’s the thing about gifting makeup and clothes. Every lady’s style and preferences is so different! So if I’m going to gift makeup, I always go for a Everluxe Lip Crayon from Crunchi. Lipstick is loved by everyone—from teens going to their first formal event to women adding the final touch to their first date fit.

Before buying, I recommend heading to your friend’s social media. Look at her skin tone and complexion. Does she gravitate to warm or cool colors? Does she look best in bold colors or soft colors? Then pick a shade that matches your assessment.

Crunchi lipsticks are free of lead (did you know most lipsticks contain lead??!), dyes, and toxins. They’re also vegan and gluten-free. The creamy texture is amazing, and they come in beautiful colors. My favorite winter shade is Acai, the fan favorite is Rosewood, and Love Letter is the most romantic shade of pink. Here’s a swatch photo showing some of the lip shades and my own photo wearing Rosewood.

DIME Beauty Perfume

Clean, hypoallergenic, and beautifully scented, DIME perfumes are a gift any woman will appreciate. DIME is an EWG partner, meaning they prioritize clean and safe ingredients in all their products.

Since I’m personally prone to migraines, I stay away from synthetic fragrances. It’s been years since I’ve worn perfume, but this year I fell in love with DIME.  

My personal favorite is 7 Summers. But if you’re gifting a friend, you might check out this sample kit. It’s a fantastic way for someone to explore new fragrances, or you could divide them among your friends (another economical win!).

BONUS: when you shop through this link, you can save $15 off your first order of $50+!

Crunchi Skincare

Crunchi offers skincare products for all ages. Whether you know a teen with acne or someone looking to reduce fine lines, there’s something for everyone.

My favorite holiday pick is the Self-Care Duo (currently 37% off), which includes the I Am The Balm Makeup Cleanser and I Am Polished Facial Exfoliator. You can also add the Gentle Cleansing Bar or the I Am Daylight Moisturizer if you have a mid-range budget. If you want to splurge, the Vitamin C Serum and Luminous Facial Oil are luxurious options!

If you want help putting together a personalized shopping cart, send me an email to hello@nataliehammitt.com with the subject line CRUNCHI or DM @mrsnataliehammitt on Instagram and answer two questions for me: 

  1. What are your main skincare concerns?
  2. What is your budget?

Then I’ll show you the best product recommendations for your own personal needs!

Gift Cards for Clothing

Sometimes the most practical and appreciated gift is a clothing gift card, allowing your friend to choose styles and sizes that fit her best.

My favorite stores for feminine and modest clothing include:  

  • Old Navy: timeless styles, although I find certain years have more modest options than others
  • The Main Street Exchange: one of the most modesty-supporting shops I’ve discovered!
  • Neuflora: a splurge in my opinion, and the sizing is quite limited, but some of the most beautiful pieces I’ve seen have been here
  • Madewell: specifically their jeans, as they offer several different cuts and they’re made to last!

This thoughtful gesture makes it easy for her to refresh her wardrobe in a way that feels just right for her.  

Fun

If you’re looking for practical yet joyful gifts, try these:

Amazon Gift Card

An Amazon gift card may seem impersonal, but sometimes a gift card paired with a thoughtful card can be the most beneficial to the receiver.

This gives the recipient the freedom to choose exactly what they need or have been wanting, which is handy when you just don’t know what a person would want.

Lodge Dutch Oven

A high-quality Dutch oven is a practical yet elegant addition to any kitchen. 

My grandmother gifted me this one for my birthday this year and it’s become a treasured possession and a functional part of our cooking and baking!

It’s a versatile piece that works for everything from soups to baking bread. I love mine because it’s heavy-duty, well-made, and shows no wear and tear after nearly a year of regular use. 

Skylight Digital Frame

This frame has been one of my favorite finds this year! The frame design is beautiful and classic and the touch screen is incredibly fun to use. 

The packaging and setup of the frame was so simple! I loved how easy it was to get these going!

My favorite part? You can upload photos from anywhere through the mobile app, and unlimited family members can share photos to the frame. Uploads are always secure and safe, so your photos can’t be leaked.

All my sisters and cousins pitched in to gift a frame to my grandmother. Now I can upload photos directly to her frame, from Missouri to Alabama, and we can add photos of my late grandfather to keep his memory alive.  

BONUS: as I’m posting this, the Skylight Frame is currently on sale for Black Friday! Click here to see!

Grocery Delivery Subscription


Grocery delivery is a luxury that any woman would love—whether she’s a busy mom, caregiver to the elderly, or a single woman working a full time job. An Instacart gift card or membership is the ultimate gift of convenience, giving her back precious time that she can reallocate to Bible study, family fellowship, or quiet time at home.  

If you want to try Instacart yourself before gifting it, you can click this link for $10 off your first $35 purchase!

Homemade Gifts

Homemade gifts are making a comeback, and they’re the perfect way to show thoughtfulness. 

You could put together the ingredients for homemade pancake mix or stovetop potpourri in mason jars, wrap up freshly baked goods, or even make handmade ornaments.

The beauty isn’t in the perfection or the price, it comes straight from the heart. 

Want to know what to get the men you care about, too?

If you look over this list, you’ll see quite a few options that really could be gifted to anyone! The ESV Study Bible or this Charcoal covered set of Scripture Journals would be great for men. Even the dutch oven or this Charcoal Facial Bar from Crunchi would be great!

If none of these quite fit the personality of your loved ones, try one of these:

  • A leather bifold wallet, dopp kit, or laptop sleeve from Portland Leather Goods (here’s 30% off any regular priced items)
  • The Voir Le Bon Cologne from DIME is on sale for Black Friday—men need clean products, too!
  • Send a box of premium American grown meat from Good Ranchers—they have quite a few different deals going on for Black Friday, you can click here to browse their offers.
  • My husband does a lot of physical reading for work, and one of his favorite ways to decompress is to listen to audiobooks. Audible is a great gift for men who like to listen while driving or working with their hands. Click here to gift a membership, or you can try Audible for the first time and enjoy 30 days free by clicking right here.

Don’t forget to tell me in the comments if you have more gift ideas! Happy holidays and happy gifting!
