Creative Gifts For The Person Who Buys Themselves Everything

People with healthy disposable incomes are famously difficult to shop for. What do you get for the person who has everything? If you’ve ever found yourself wracking your brain for a shop-happy friend, then you’re in the right place. Trying to buy gifts for someone who can buy themselves whatever they want can be a total head-scratcher. Every time you think you’ve come up with something they’ll adore, they beat you to the punch.

Luckily, the answer to this dilemma does not necessarily lie with expensive, over-the-top gifts. What we’re looking for are items that are unique, cater to your friend’s interests and aesthetic, and are as useful as they are meaningful. After all, there is nothing more precious than feeling seen.
