Christmas Gift Ideas for Women

Christmas is the season for giving. But when you're shopping for a woman and don't know where to begin, gift giving can be a little tough. No matter what you give, if the gift comes from the heart, the woman you're trying to surprise will love it. Just to make it a little easier, though, keep this handy dandy gift guide in your pocket before you put on your Santa hat and head out to the mall.

Spa Gift Certificate or Spa Bath Gift Basket

When you want to pamper a woman for Christmas, treat her to a day at her favorite spa. If you're not sure what her favorite spa is, simply search online city guides like Citysearch.com and AOL CityGuide to see which spas in town made their top "best spas" list. Once you've selected a spa, purchase a gift certificate for a 60-minute massage, or manicure and pedicure treatment. Or if you have money to splurge, choose a gift certificate that will allow her to spend a day at the spa.

If your budget is slim, skip the spa and head to the bath section of a bath/body store. The mall is probably the easiest place to find several stores of that nature. If you need help choosing a fragrance, ask a sales associate to help. Choose a variety of lotions, candles, bubble baths, shower gels, bath bombs and loofahs and have them gift wrapped. During Christmastime, many stores will give customers a free gift bag with purchase.

Girly Movie Set

Create a woman-friendly movie gift set. Throw in classic and new chick flicks, such as "He's Just Not That Into You," "Thelma and Louise" and "How Stella Got Her Groove Back. About three movies should be enough for the gift set, but the more, the merrier. Once you have purchased the films, head to a cooking supplies store and purchase a jar of gourmet popcorn, gourmet seasoning and popcorn boxes. Place all of these items in a gift basket, along with the movies and present it to her on Christmas Day.

Gift Cards

If the woman that you're shopping for has left you completely stumped when it comes to gifts, be safe and get her a gift card to her favorite store or restaurant. While it may take out some of the romance of gift shopping and giving, the gift card for Christmas is an excellent choice. This is an especially good gift for a woman who loves to shop, as you'll be giving her the opportunity to buy something from her favorite store at no cost to her. The restaurant gift card is a good alternative option and one that she might not expect. Or you can buy a credit card gift card, which will allow her to buy whatever she wants, wherever she wants.
