Custom Mug
Capture your grad’s favorite memories on a mug they’ll use every morning. It’s a sweet blend of practicality and sentiment. (Go ahead and send ’em this mug cake recipe, too).
Why they’ll love it: It’s dishwasher safe!
Memories Candle
If your kiddo is leaving home for the first time, a homesick candle will remind them of their favorite state or city. You can also pay homage to beloved memories, like days spent at summer camp or Friday night football games. A candle subscription makes a great gift, too.
Why they’ll love it: It’s a great way to add ambiance to their new space.
Wireless Headphones
Gift them something they really want. These wireless Apple AirPods make on-the-go listening a breeze.
Why they’ll love it: AirPods look as cool as they sound.
“Congratulations” Popcorn Tin
If your grad has a sweet tooth, then treat them to this deluxe popcorn tin. It’s full of four varieties of Moose Munch—classic caramel, milk chocolate, dark chocolate and s’mores.
Why they’ll love it: Once the tin is empty, it’s a great spot for your grad to store cards, tassels and other memorabilia.
Customized Cash
When it comes to graduation gifts, cash is king. Make your money a little more personal by tucking it inside this colorful (and practical!) card holder keychain.
Why they’ll love it: There’s enough space for cards and IDs, too.
External Hard Drive
While an external hard drive may not be the most exciting gift to open now, your grad will thank you when their computer crashes the night before a big project is due.
Why they’ll love it: 2000GB is enough space to hold, well, pretty much everything.
Graduation Gift Box
Show your grad how much you care with a congratulations gift box filled with all of their favorite things. A sunshine box would be welcome, too.
Why they’ll love it: Each box can be customized with fun add-ons.
Sturdy Backpack
Whether they’re toting it to class or on a long commute, this handsome leather backpack will get a lot of use.
Why they’ll love it: Since it’s made of leather, this pack will last for years.
College T-shirt
Grads of all ages will appreciate a brand new college T-shirt. First years heading off to school will anticipate all of the exciting memories to come, while graduating seniors can look back on their college experience.
Why they’ll love it: Who doesn’t want to show a little school pride?
Coffee Subscription
New jobs (or new classes) call for a steady stream of caffeine in most cases. Atlas Coffee Club sends fresh roasts from all over the world straight to your grad’s door. We love these other foodie subscriptions as well.
Why they’ll love it: All of the coffee is sustainably farmed.
Microwave Popcorn Popper
Midnight snack, anyone? This microwave popcorn popper is perfect for dorm rooms and studio apartments alike.
Why they’ll love it: It makes enough for their friends, too.
