Passé enough? Well, we meant giving dry fruits with a twist. The twist is DIY ideas. A beautifully decorated box, a handmade Diwali card to go along, and cute DIY packaging ideas would make a huge difference.

And just in case the person already has a kindle, you can consider gifting a pretty kindle cover. It’ll be such a useful gift.
- Diwali Goodies
What can be better than Diwali goodies at Diwali. You could make a gift set of hand painted diyas, Diwali lanterns, and bird cage with fairy lights.


Buy diyas and paint them yourself. Or you could also buy diyas from NGOs and help them have a happier Diwali.

- Electronics
Electronics are a good gifting choice. You could choose an air fryer for your health conscious friend, hair styling tools for your fashionista sister or a hand blender for your foodie uncle. Electronic gifts like a hand held massager or an electric blanket would be ideal for your grandparents.


And the best part is that there are various Diwali sales during the season, so you can pick up the product at a steal deal as well.
- Crystal Items
Crystal items are considered to be auspicious gifts during Diwali. But instead of giving those boring items, think out of the box. Fill the vase with aroma potpourri or flowers, and the bowls can be filled with dry fruits or handmade chocolates. You can also consider gifting a vintage crystal tea set or a dinner set.

- Wine Bottle
A bottle of wine is one choice that always helps. Classy and chic, give a new turn to the festive vibe with an exquisite bottle of wine, or a wine hamper.

Add a personalized Diwali message, and use creative DIY methods to wrap it and see how stunning the simple bottle would turn out to be. You can give it with a bunch of flowers or chocolates and it’ll always be a hit.
- Spa Appointment
After all the running around and festive madness, it’ll be great to relax and rejuvenate. A spa appointment would be an ideal way to pamper your loved ones. You could also think of a couple’s spa appointment or even a hair spa session, depending upon the person’s likes and preferences.

Unusual yet useful, a spa session would be that much needed break. So gift it to your parents, or newly-wed friends and let them enjoy.
Hope these Diwali gifting ideas help put an end to those boring and cliché gifts. Have a great festive time…
Happy Diwali!
