In a year when almost everyone looks the same as the next person, or is unrecognizable because of their face masks (and shields); it’s a great idea to give your Christmas gifts this year a personal touch.

What would be more surprising than sending a Mini-Me Caricature Doll to those on your BFF list?  If not, what’s it to put the recipient’s name on the item you’ll gift him or her, making them know you’ve put extra thought into the gift?

SM Supermalls is full of such fun ideas, with kiosks, stalls, and free-standing stores ready to customize your Christmas presents. You just have to get prepped early in the game to achieve this, and not wait for the last minute.

Read on to get some noteworthy suggestions and tips. And don’t think for one moment the clock isn’t ticking; we’ve blinked, and already it’s October!

For gift ideas to help you prepare ahead of the holiday rush, SM shares the following guide to make your loved ones feel appreciated this holiday season, which is less than 100 days away:

Stocking stuffers that bring joy!

Leading up to the holidays, a row of overflowing stockings is a merry indicator of the generosity to come, building anticipation as the big day grows near.

What kind of goodies will those stockings yield? Sweet treats, accessories, skincare sets or make-up? You can find all these delightful suggestions for your modern-day stocking stuffers for the women in your life, available at LOOK at SM Aura!

Holiday baskets to feed the family!

Now more than ever, it’s important for us to extend help to those who need it most. Pay it forward to your favorite charities and communities that are heavily affected by the pandemic.

Starting as early as now, you can find a wide variety of holiday gift baskets for as low as P350 at SM Markets. Amid the pandemic, you can still make their holiday celebration more special by giving them the gift of health with a fruit basket filled with natural immunity boosters.

A Christmas food basket is enough to set the holiday mood, even during these trying times. So yes, do send a Christmas food basket and let them know that you care.
