Top 5 Grad Presents

It's graduation time again... If you're anything like me you have an abundance of graduation parties to go to within the next month or so and probably have no idea what to get for any of them. So, rather than the traditional go-to gift of cash, I've compiled a list of the Top 5 graduation presents I wish I had received when I graduated from high school. (in no particular order)


1.Ribbon board - perfect for displaying picture in their new dorm room or apartment. Vera Bradley makes super cute (but slightly expensive) ones.

2. Agenda - Sure, you can buy a boring agenda at Walmart or Target but for something you'll be using almost everyday you want it to be pretty right? This Lily Pullitzer agenda is one of my personal favorites.
3. Cute luggage - You travel a lot in college. Whether you're moving 20 miles or 200 miles, luggage is extremely handy and cute luggage just makes traveling that much more fun!
4. Coffee maker - For late nights and early mornings.  Even if you don't drink coffee now, you will. I love my Keurig and they specifically make a smaller version for dorms.
5. Scentsy- (or the equivalent from Walmart) A great alternative to candles. Scentsy uses a lightbulb to melt the wax rather than a flame which makes them okay for using in a dorm. They come in all colors, shapes, and sizes and have a TON of scented waxes to choose from.

I know most of these ideas don't work for guys but guys would rather just have money anyways right?

Happy Graduation Season!
