Great gift ideas for college students!

Fall is nearly here and already students are getting ready to go (or back!) to college. It can be hard to know what gifts to give that will make their lives a little bit easier.  Therefore I had our university-bound worker bee Liz suggest some great gift ideas for our college students:

#1  Towel Wraps.  They're great for college, and they're softer and cheaper than a bathrobe. Plus you can personalize them and they come in great colors!

#2  Note cards with the student's/adult's name on them. (Thank you notes).  If an 18 year old had a pre-made thank you notes, they will be more likely to write Grandma Molly a thank you note for their birthday present.

#3  Fleece lap blankets are another great gift idea. Great for college and naps! Plus these can also be personalized!

#4  Our big "green" shopping bags!  Hey, they're earth friendly, who can go wrong with that?!

#5  Jewelry – every girl likes it! What else is there to say?

#6  Key chain wallets – why? Because I want one! They aren't bulky and are convenient to carry!  Plus they come in some cool designs and they aren't too pricey either.

#7  Hand-turned pens. I love them!  I just wish I could get my name on one, but nonetheless they're great.  Pens are great for writing phone messages to letters to grocery lists to notes in that Chemistry class and they're handmade! Bonus!

#8  Magnetic note boards – friends can leave messages on your door when you are out and they are perfect to hang on the outside of a dorm or apartment door.

#9 University Note sheets and cards.

#10  Monogram folded notes with the letter of the person's first name on them – great for writing letters or thank-you’s to parents and friends and other family members who miss you!

#11  File totes for important information, bills etc. in college.
