Gift Ideas

Uncommon Goods has some wonderful gift ideas for your graduate. From keepsake books to jewelry, they have a ton of unique gift ideas. I’ve ordered gifts for family and friends from them throughout the years because they really do have uncommon goods. Items you won’t find elsewhere for the men, women and kids in your life. They even offer unique gifts for the pet lover! Plus they work with local artisans and craft-makers across the country so they are supporting local communities which I love! Here are some of my favorite graduation gift ideas but you can check out their entire list of goodies here.

Past Present Future Bracelet:

Jewelry is always a good choice to give a recent grad student! When I graduated from college, my parents gave me a sweetheart bracelet that I still wear. I really love this bracelet found on Uncommon Goods. Representing the past, present and future, it would be a wonderful gift to give your new graduate!
