WHAT CAN I OBTAIN FOR INDIVIDUALS WHEN I’M ATTEMPTING TO REDUCE DISORDER?!
As a fellow clutter-clearer, the notion of bestowing a gift can be quite peculiar. The last thing one desires is to contribute to someone else’s clutter conundrum, don’t you think? Therefore, what can be acquired for Christmas that will not contribute to their impending clutter situation?
After extensive research and engaging in lively conversations, a group of individuals and I have curated an intriguing compilation of 100 gifts that are devoid of any clutter. With this comprehensive list at your disposal, you can now generously bestow meaningful presents without burdening the recipients with the task of dusting.
When I say clutter-free, let me tell you what that means. To be “clutter-free,” a gift must meet at least one of the following requirements:
A present that is not tangible.
A gift that can be consumed – it eventually disappears.
A present that satisfies a requirement.
A present that will be adored (if you have affection for it, it’s not mess to you).
So, with no more delay, behold your compilation of 100 gifts that are completely free from clutter. If relevant, we’ve included links, and some gifts may have explanations while others won’t. Have a delightful time!
For an adorable way to present gift cards, take a look at this mason jar alternative from Heavenly Homemakers.
NOTE: This list is not only for Christmas, but can be utilized for any occasion of gift giving.

Treat yourself and your loved ones to a delightful evening out by presenting them with a combination of a local cinema gift card and a voucher for a scrumptious dining experience.

A cozy evening spent at home: A delightful surprise from Redbox, a delightful treat of popcorn, and indulgent chocolate bars.

Ah, coffee, my dear companion, it never fails to enchant. It brings me unbounded delight whenever bestowed upon me. Opt for a delightful gourmet brew or indulge in a fancy concoction for added allure. Truly, coffee is the everlasting present that bestows its magic throughout the day. Now, should your acquaintance not appreciate the marvel of coffee (in which case, guidance may be necessary), perhaps tea shall suffice as a suitable alternative.
Coffee gift cards: A delightful treat! This makes for an incredible present for a busy mom. While I seldom splurge on fancy coffees, receiving a gift card fills me with excitement to indulge. Moreover, many of these establishments offer drive-thru service, sparing me the hassle of taking the kids along! You can even find Starbucks gift cards on Amazon, allowing you to enjoy your favorite brew without leaving the comfort of your home.
Crafting Exquisite Spice Blends: This exquisite concoction holds a special place in my heart. It serves as the perfect offering for gracious hosts and hostesses. The compendium Easy Homemade is my trusted companion, guiding me through the art of gifting delightful homemade blends and aromatic spices.
Looking for a gift for someone who appreciates the world of audio books? Surprise them with an Audible subscription, a delightful service powered by Amazon. This way, they can have the freedom to select their preferred audio books themselves.

Festive Treats: A beloved tradition of mine! Each Christmas, I delight in presenting homemade baked goods as gifts. When selecting a present for someone with specific dietary requirements, it’s crucial to be mindful. Personally, I take great pleasure in gifting homemade bread, which can be wonderfully complemented with delectable jams or homemade butter.
The Joy of Homemade Preserves: Edible blessings are truly delightful! They merely occupy a spot until savored. Once relished, they bring delight to your taste buds and vanish without a trace – no need for any storage, except within you. Have you preserved anything this season? Offer it as a gift! I absolutely adore receiving such thoughtful gestures.
Food for All: Indulging in delicious meals is a universal pleasure! It’s nearly impossible to come across someone who wouldn’t appreciate a grocery store gift card. Even those following unique dietary preferences require sustenance. Remarkably, even online giants like Amazon offer gift cards for prestigious food havens like Safeway and Whole Foods.

Bestow the power of touch: Offer the precious gift of a soothing massage. It truly delights my partner when I surprise them with a carefully arranged massage session.
The Hair Cut Gift Card: Once upon a time, my sister bestowed this wonderful present upon me, and oh, how I adored it! The sheer delight of being able to indulge in a little self-pampering, knowing that it had already been taken care of, was simply exquisite. It amplified the blissful sensation of every lather and rinse during the shampoo session. Undoubtedly, for women, getting a haircut is akin to a revitalizing therapy session.
Nail Care Delight: This particular gift choice is quite niche, so it’s important to ensure it goes to someone who truly appreciates it. Personally, I’m not a fan of this pampering ritual. Hehe! However, if the person on your gift list happens to revel in such indulgence, it would undoubtedly be a splendid triumph.
A few years back, Barry’s aunt decided to make a generous contribution to a charity of her choosing, dedicating it to his father in lieu of presenting us with a traditional gift. This thoughtful gesture continues to resonate with me, as it truly exemplifies a remarkable way to pay tribute to someone dear. One might consider crafting an endearing printout and tucking it inside a petite gift bag as a means of expression.
Purchase a Caprine Creature: Indeed, you caught my drift. In the previous year, we bestowed the gift of fowls upon a family residing abroad, courtesy of World Vision. You have the option to select a caprine creature. Or perhaps some fowls. To my knowledge, you could even bestow a bovine! My children persistently reminisce about this generous act. In the event that the individual on your roster lacks material desires, there exists an ample number of individuals yearning for a caprine companion.
Embrace the world of digital literature where boundless possibilities reside, taking up mere bytes on your beloved digital companion. Explore the realm of Kindle gift cards, offered by Amazon, an ideal present for those seeking literary adventures. And fear not if your desired eBook eludes the grasp of Amazon’s vast collection; seize the opportunity to acquire it elsewhere, then bestow it upon the chosen recipient via electronic mail in due course. Should the eBook’s size prove overwhelming, fear not! Transfer it onto a trusty CD and present this compact treasure instead.
Spread the joy of eCloth this season! Forget the dull task of cleaning your home – why not surprise your loved ones with something that simply needs water to work its magic? I vividly recall a year when I gifted nearly everyone on my list with a marvelous General Purpose Cloth and a remarkable Window Cloth from eCloth, and let me tell you, they were absolutely thrilled! Cleaning doesn’t have to be a chore when you can enjoy the process!
Sunscreen and a Hat: Now here’s a nifty idea. Sunscreen, the ultimate shield against harmful rays, paired with a stylish hat, ensuring your whole head is protected from scorching sunburn. No one wants to be gifted with that unpleasant surprise. I personally rely on Vitacost for my sunscreen needs, then venture to Walmart or Target to discover a charming little hat or trendy visor. And just like that, you’ve got the perfect summer combo.
Check it out: This item could be a potential source of clutter if the recipient doesn’t actually require a watch. Therefore, it’s crucial to consider whether it fulfills a specific need. For instance, my better half is an avid watch enthusiast, so gifting him a watch wouldn’t contribute to clutter; in fact, it would be highly appreciated. Moreover, a watch can be an incredibly practical and functional present. Take my father, for instance, who frequently ends up damaging his watches while working on the farm. Consequently, he is always in search of a new, durable timepiece that doesn’t break the bank.
A Family Game Night Gem: While some may view it as a mess, I beg to differ. It’s a marvelous way to engage the entire family, serving as a unified gift instead of multiple tiny presents. Among our cherished picks are the enthralling Sequence and mind-boggling Clue. Moreover, these games double as valuable educational resources for homeschoolers.
Bible Journaling Essentials: Is there someone on your gift list who finds joy in the art of journaling? As an avid enthusiast myself, I find solace in possessing these essential supplies, sparing me the need to constantly replenish them. Moreover, these supplies serve a dual purpose as they gracefully find their place within the pages of your Bible. Personally, I am particularly fond of the ESV Journaling Bible, but do explore the captivating offerings of the Illustrated Faith collection.
A calendar or planner can be a thoughtful gift, but it requires a deep understanding of the person’s preferences. If you happen to be aware of their strong affection for a particular calendar or planner, you could assist in purchasing supplies related to it. For instance, I may not personally embrace the planner trend, but my faithful companion is the Brownline Calendar that I consult daily.
How about getting a fresh pair of earrings that are perfect for a little princess in your close-knit clan? As the responsible guardian, the decision lies in your hands. Let’s refrain from randomly piercing unsuspecting individuals, shall we? Agreed?
Embrace the joy of Water Park/Amusement Park Season Passes, an exquisite present that whispers, “Bid farewell to concerns about unexpected downpours or unruly monsoons – immerse yourself in the park’s delights whenever your heart desires!” It liberates you from the constraints of fixed dates, allowing you to revel in its offerings countless times without hesitation.
Tickets to Sporting Events: I have a handful of family members who are absolutely obsessed with sports. This particular gift would definitely hit the mark for them.

However, it won’t be hard to identify the perfect recipient for this gift, as they will undoubtedly express their deep passion for sports quite loudly.
Gift Cards for iTunes or Other Music: Despite my lack of technological knowledge, I’ve come across a fascinating idea – the ability to present someone with the opportunity to explore their own musical journey. By offering gift cards like iTunes, individuals can indulge in the pleasure of curating their own collection of melodies and tunes that resonate with their personal taste and emotions. After all, music transcends boundaries and holds a special place in our hearts.
Required Attire: Inquire about this matter. “Do you require any specific clothing?” When it comes to your own children, you possess knowledge of their preferences. However, with cousins or friends, it is necessary to either inquire or have a deep understanding of their tastes. Unnecessary or unappreciated items only add to the clutter, so proceed with caution. Perhaps you could explore Swap.Com, which offers a Gift Order feature allowing you to conveniently send ordered gifts to someone.
Apps: Have you ever discovered the delightful possibility of gifting apps? Curiously enough, I was completely oblivious to this until my dear friend Nikki bestowed upon me an enlightening essential oil app. It proved to be quite remarkable since, being the frugal individual that I am, I rarely indulge in purchasing apps. The beauty of apps lies in their ability to occupy no physical space, with the exception of the precious realm of phone storage.
Netflix Subscription: Give the present of indulging in TV series marathons! Explore the Gift Card alternative at Netflix.
Game of Knowledge Subscription: An absolute delight for children of all ages! My little ones absolutely adore indulging in the world of Reading Eggs, yet that’s merely a single choice.

Be warned – this thoughtful gesture may induce tears of pure bliss in the lucky recipient. Money Saving Mom offers an abundance of freezer cooking tutorials and printable resources to explore.
Inquire about the availability of complimentary passes for parking or amenities that typically require payment when visiting your nearby state park. Our penchant for visiting the local state park is hindered by the recurring parking fee. Providing a pass would encourage families to explore the outdoors more frequently. Embrace the great outdoors, folks!
Don’t let the expense of summer camp hinder a parent’s decision to send their child. I have such cherished memories of Girl Scout Camp. As a grandparent, you have an incredible opportunity to give an AMAZING gift. Consider offering to cover the expenses for their desired summer camp. Just a heads up though – be prepared for some tears of gratitude from the parents.
A remarkable suggestion for an aspiring adolescent motorist is an Automotive Emergency Kit. Nestled within our trusty van resides one of these invaluable kits, serving as a comforting presence, offering solace and tranquility.

Delightful Melodies: Naturally, bestowing this exquisite present should not be done haphazardly.

Nevertheless, it stands as an exceptional choice as it bestows a gift that resonates throughout one’s entire existence.
Capturing Precious Moments: This delightful present has become a cherished tradition for doting grandparents. It never fails to make a lasting impression.

The Potent Potential of College Funds: While it may appear mundane or lacking in personal touch for a few, rest assured, it’s quite the contrary.

It is crucial to clearly specify the purpose of the funds – they are intended for higher education, not merely a stockpile of Twizzlers.

Care to lend a hand in making one of these dreams come true?
Car Detailing: Every now and then, my awesome brother-in-law surprises us with this incredible present, showcasing his exceptional skills.

When it comes to clutter, everyone’s perspective differs. And in the case of a camera, it’s no exception. While my kids and I adore our camera, my mom doesn’t share the same enthusiasm.

Undoubtedly, the VTech Kids Camera stands as one of the most remarkable presents we’ve ever bestowed upon our children.

Artistic Materials: While some may perceive this as a mess, I perceive it as ephemeral. The art supplies serve their purpose, they gradually deplete, and their packaging vanishes.
