Top Ten Gifts for Your Wife

Gifts from the Heart, to the Person You Love Most

Jacke Reynolds
Come on guys, tell the truth. Aren't you just sometimes genuinely stumped on what to give your wife for Christmas? We women aren't that difficult to please, we just aren't thrilled with appliances. Give us something meaningful, romantic, or adventurous! Ten great gift ideas for your wife:

Diamonds are a girl's best friend. We all have budget considerations, and diamonds are a high ticket item. But with just a little pre-planning you can have that special gift all wrapped up ahead of time. My favorite pick is the Jacquelin Farre Genuine Diamond Tennis Bracelet for $89.99, beautiful 28 diamonds set in silver with 18K gold overlay. Affordable, beautiful, your wife will love it.


A second mini honeymoon would thrill any married woman. You can purchase a nice weekend away by booking a hotel in a major city, with reservations for a candle lit dinner or hit the road for a weekend away to her favorite travel location. Check out weekend destinations online for you and your wife. Sweep her off her feet, make it romantic. Check out Site59 for some great weekend get aways from $250.00 on up.


Give her a gift certificate for housekeeping services for several months. Nothing feels better than coming home to a house that is clean, and being able to just sit down and enjoy time with hubby and family. She will have more time with you, and feel less stressed without the worry of keeping house for a few months. Merry Maids is a well known housekeeping service in most areas of the country. Once a week or once a month, your wife will love it!


A day of pampering at a Day Spa, massage, pedicure, nails, hair, the works. You may not recognize the relaxed and rejuvenated woman who comes home to you. Schedule it for a day that you know she has free, or let her choose the day herself. The Day Spa Association can help you locate a great spa experience in your area.

Give her a once a week girl's night out! Print her up a promise to sit with the kids, with a reservation for her and some friends to hit their favorite night spot. Women like to spend time with their friends now and then, and we all need a break from our children now and then. It may be a trip to the gym with her friends, a shopping adventure, or dinner out. She will appreciate knowing that she has one evening per week just for her.

If money is tight surprise her with you! Arrange a sitter for the kids, have the house sparkling clean, a nice candle light dinner, some wine, and later a bubble bath and a massage. Be all shaved and wearing her favorite cologne. Make it a time that you appreciate her, without asking for anything in return. Women love to feel that they are special. Cozy up in front of the fireplace and have some meaningful conversation. Feed her chocolate kisses. Be creative, she'll love you for it.


Does your wife think she isn't beautiful? Give her the gift of Glamour Shots. Professional photographers and stylists will create a portrait that brings out the beauty within. These sessions are fun, and you will enjoy having the beautiful sexy photograph to carry in your wallet.

Set your wife up to go to a class to learn something she's always wanted to do. It could be pottery, rug making, sky diving, rafting, horseback riding, dirt biking. Sometime or other she has said to you, "I wish I could do", you will fill in the blank. Who would not enjoy fulfilling their dreams?

Give her some beautiful lingerie. If you know her sizes buy her pretty panties and bras for each day of the week. Women like to feel pretty, and enjoy especially pretty undergarments. If fit is an issue, let her pick them out. A great choice for pretty lingerie is Victoria's Secret. Order online or buy direct from the store.

What about permanent make up? Women can go to salons and have pretty eyeliner professionally applied that lasts for years! This is great for busy working women, and women who have allergies to normal cosmetics. These salons also do lip liners, dermabrasion, brows, and other services. For just a few hundred dollars you can give her a boost of beauty confidence.


All a great Christmas gift for your wife requires is some thoughtfulness and imagination. Forget the can opener!

    Do you know the rules when it comes to gift ideas wife? There are rules and then there are rules, with a capital R. There are rules that you can break: don’t mix chocolate candy with sunflower seeds. There are rules that you could break but you probably shouldn’t like going through a red light at four am because there is not another living soul on the road anyway. And then there are the Rules! The ones that you should not break, ever!



    These are the ten rules that apply for gift ideas for the wifey: the ones that can land you in extraordinarily hot water, if you are not careful. Look, it is all very simple, follow the rules or pay for it, until the next gift giving holiday rolls around. You were warned.



    1. There are no good gift ideas for your wife that includes the words “some assembly required,” if the assembly that was required is not done before hand. You buy her a s

    I have to agree, this list is the same crap that you read everywhere else. There is no element of surprise in any of these gifts. Only, the same old predictable juts by me jewelry and pamper me, throw in some chocolates every once and a while and I am happy. Blah, blah, blah. That would be like saying, buy man a ticket to his favorite sports event, a new watch, and new sweater and he is happy. Sure they are just gift ideas but why tell me why is it always the same crap over and over

    A lot of that sounds really great for a home maker wife. And as much as I really would love to giver her all of the gifts that you had mentioned, I have to think of getting gifts for her and my four children. There has to be a GREAT gift idea with in a budget that I can afford. This is the first time in 5 years that we will be able to spend $100 dollars on each other. I give her gifts through out the year from time to time, when I can afford them. But, I really would like to give her something great that I can afford.

    Last year my DH had a personalized gift made for me for Christmas called Pages from the Heart gift books they are handmade gifts created from recycled hard back books. All are decorated with handmade paper flowers and other handmade paper ornaments which make them kind of 3D ,as mine was a loving Christmas wish (a poem my hubby wrote himself) it was decorated with white poinsettias and red roses its so beautiful ,opposite the poem is a small grouping of pictures taken of some of our past Christmas's also decorated with paper flowers its so romantic and sentimental a joy to behold .My one regret and I shouldn't say this as I wouldn't swap it for the world .But I wish he hadn't had it made into a Christmas gift which obviously had to be Christmas decorated, as then I wouldn't have to put it away when the holidays are over I could have it on show all year . The lady who makes them did suggest at the time it shouldn't be made specifically for Christmas too much like an item of holida
