As the holiday season arrives, and stores advertise for discounts, it becomes most logical to engage in the hyper-capitalist and consumerist ideas of Christmas and the New Year. This idea is seemingly at the root of the Christmas spirit, and having a tree with no presents underneath just looks sad. And of course, what would be a better way to forget the problems of the world and act like everything is great again than engaging in some retail therapy? In the Christmas economy, you can afford that. With that being said, let us explore some Watermelon gift ideas, as this fruit shares the festive colors of green, red, and white.
A lot of people are going home this month, and keeping things organized in a suitcase always ends up being worse than the traveling itself. That is why, this holiday season, you can give your loved one this gift to keep their makeup and skincare in one place. Alternatively, it can be used for other forms of storage if the person you are gifting it to does not wear makeup. Cables, jewelry, hair clips, and undergarments are all things that immediately come to mind when I think about the things that I always have to pack in smaller compartments. This holiday season, compartments shouldn’t be an issue with this watermelon bag allowing you to be organized in style.
We all know someone very hard to buy presents for or a child that has no real interests other than toys. This is the perfect gift for someone like that, and also a perfect moving-in gift for someone to help them liven up their living space. It is one that always brings smiles to people's faces and is fairly cheap in the midst of what can be an expensive month.
Tote Bags have only risen in popularity this year with everyone opting to wear a tote bag instead of a purse or a backpack. A simplistic design on a widely used object is the way to go, and this particular one matches both those criteria. It is also a spacious one, perfect for those long days at the library or grocery trips. Never underestimate the power of a tote bag and never assume that one will have too many. You just need one tote bag to match every outfit, which is why the watermelon Christmas-y colors work perfectly as a gift right now.
4. Watermelon Accessories
If you have a little bit more money to splurge on a loved one and you want to give them a meaningful gift, any kind of accessory or jewelry will go a long way. More specifically, however, is a pair of
watermelon earrings or a
watermelon tie. These are especially good presents when everyone is going to more formal events right now where dressing up becomes a necessity rather than a choice. Who wouldn’t love to show up and show out during this beautiful month of December? And who knows if this little piece of jewelry will become a conversation starter with a future partner.
Last, but certainly not least, is a cute pair of mismatched watermelon socks for the cold weather. Socks are an easy gift to get someone as they are well-known stocking stuffer items. Socks are a perfect gift because people lose them, tear them, or have too few of them. Help your friends and family stay warm while adding a cooler touch to their outfits through these festive watermelon socks.
