Pinterest is taking the guesswork out of shopping for festive season gifts. Drawing on our treasure trove of user search and trend data, we’ve developed the ultimate Festive Season Edit: hundreds of expert-curated gift guides across 17 categories, including fashion, home, food, beauty, travel, parenting and technology.
These aren’t subjective suggestions. These are gift ideas chosen by celebrities in the know and Pinterest experts who have analysed our unique search data, save data, shopping and click data to understand exactly what the people in your life want for the festive season. Examples include:1
“Special finds he'll love”: Searches for “budget friendly gifts for boyfriend” are up a remarkable +2600%.
“Thoughtful gifts under $50” is inspired by trending searches for delightful surprises like “funky mug” (+330%), “spiral candle” (+180%), and “Korean chopsticks” (+80%)—proving that thoughtful, special gifts don’t have to break the bank.
“Gifts for the dad who ‘doesn’t want anything” uncovers gifts they’ll actually appreciate, based on trending searches like “coastal cowboy hat” (+90%), “first aid kit box” (+190%), “men’s toiletry bag essentials” (+165%), and “passport holder” (+40%).
“Gifts for the chronically caffeinated” is packed with trending picks for coffee lovers as searches for items like “coffee carrier gift” climb 300%.
By clicking on these or any of hundreds of gift-getting archetypes, you’ll be directed to a thoughtfully curated shoppable board of festive presents that users are loving on Pinterest. In addition to our own experts, we’ve partnered with celebrities who have curated festive boards based on their earned knowledge of spot-on gift choices.
Pamela Anderson’s “Holiday on the Farm”
Conan Gray’s “Gifts for the DIY creative”
“The festive season, for me, is about coming together—finding beauty in the small details and the joy of creating something thoughtful. I love wandering through Pinterest… gathering ideas, dreaming up possibilities, and sharing them with the people I love. This season, I’m curating a board that celebrates mindful beauty, meaningful giving, and the art of making every gathering matter. I hope it inspires others to do the same.” —Pamela Anderson
“The holidays have become my new excuse to spend too much time making arts and crafts, so for my Pinterest gift guide I wanted to put together a little crafty board for all my like-minded DIY friends. My fans inspire me constantly with their artistry, and I wanted to include something for every craft, whether it’s printing, writing, sewing, embroidery, or photography. I hope my guide helps anyone who isn’t sure what to get for the crafter in their life this holiday season.” –Conan Gray
