I am the mother of none, but the very proud Aunt to four beautiful children. I did absolutely no work to create them, but I will do everything in my power to help raise them.

Do you know someone who’s going to be a new Aunt? Do you know an Aunt that LOVES being an Aunt?
If the answer is yes to any of these questions, then you’ve come to the right place. Below is a list of my favorite gifts for Aunts for all occasions.
Why Aunts Are Special
Proud Aunts and Aunties are constantly telling stories about their niblings and showing off their pictures to friends and sometimes even strangers. And when people mistakenly think that these precious people are their own children, proud Aunts confidently reply, “No, I’m their Aunt.”
It’s a title that they hold dearly. One that they have earned and now cherish just as much as the children who have made them one.
Whether it’s a Birthday, Mother’s Day, Christmas, Thank You, or Announcement gift, there are unique gifts made just for Aunts. I did some designing to make items for Aunts of all types.
Here’s a list of products that I feel are appropriate for several different occasions and touch on cute, funny, and sentimental. Who doesn’t love getting presents?
Oh, and P.S., if you’re the Aunt reading this post, you might want to forward this article on to your loved ones as a hint-hint – I want this!
1.) Gift for Aunts: Mugs.
Is this Aunt a coffee or tea lover? Then she’ll love getting a new mug to show off that she’s one of the best ones out there. Personally, I love a good coffee mug. Most coffee and tea lovers have a favorite they’ll turn to first once all the dishes are cleaned. I betcha if she gets one of these, it’ll surely be the first pick out of the dishwasher.
Like many people, I’m a big fan of coffee and tea. So I designed some special mugs just for your Auntie’s out there. But even if your Aunt doesn’t drink coffee or tea, coffee mugs can come in handy to hold makeup brushes or pens and pencils. They can also be used for eating soup because then you can sip the broth without burning your fingers!
All can be customized for any color by clicking the customize button. Some are picture templates so you can put in a picture of you and your Aunt! Also, some have name templates so the name of your Aunt can be printed! Wonderful addition to any Aunt’s home! Great for gifts for birthdays, Christmas, Holidays, and Mother’s Day!
Is this Auntie trendy and practical? If she is, she might enjoy an Auntie Popsocket.
It’s one of those things that you don’t know you want it until you have it, and then you can’t live without it.
My niece, Lola swears by hers. I asked her why she loves this so much and she then gave me a demo. They provide a better grip on your phone so you’re less likely to drop it while you’re holding it. They make taking a selfie a much easier process because you don’t have to stretch your hands around the entire phone.
And lastly, they can serve as a convenient stand for your phone when you’re watching a video or FaceTiming.
Some Aunts love fashion. Is the Aunt you’re shopping for one of them? Why not add a little Auntie gear into her wardrobe?
Clothing and how we dress says a lot about us. It’s an expression of how you want the world to see you. If your Aunt LOVES being an Aunt, she’ll most likely want to spread the word as much as possible. She’s proud to be an Aunt and now she’ll have the t-shirt to prove it.
These t-shirts can be paired with any leggings or jeans to complete that “I’m the Best Aunt Ever” look she’s been rocking for years. Also, they make great for gifts for birthdays, Christmas, Holidays, and Mother’s Day!
What woman doesn’t love a piece of jewelry? These decorative, but elegant pieces will surely make for one happy Auntie.
Not only are they stylish, but there’s an air of sentimentality and sweetness to them too. It’s a win-win situation.
They’re not too dressy that she’ll need to have a special occasion to go to in order to wear them. Contrarily, these are everyday wear items. And why wouldn’t she wear any of these every day? After all, she’s an Aunt EVERY DAY of her life 🙂
There’s no such thing as too many pictures. They’re not a thing of the past, and sometimes they’re all we have to remember it. Pictures are memories and should be treasured.
If you’re looking to make a birth announcement to this Auntie, you could put a picture of the sonogram inside one of these frames and give it to her. How cute is that?!
One year for Christmas I asked for a framed picture of family members. To my surprise, my sister went out and bought ornament picture frames and put pictures of my family in each of them. It’s one of the best gifts I’ve ever gotten.
Who needs another keychain? Your Aunt! That’s who!
Keychains aren’t just for your keys. They can be put on your luggage as a part of a way to identify yours from the other 500 black midsize Travelpro bags in the airport or attach it to any bag with a broken zipper.
I also like to have a keychain handy for spare keys. So why not get one for your Auntie? It would be completely appropriate, especially if she has a key to your house. She’ll never forget which one it is.
We can’t forget about the Aunts to be! If you’re looking to make a pregnancy announcement or get a cute for the soon to be aunt, look at my cute collection of “Aunt To Bee” gifts. Whether you want a functional tote bag, cute coffee mug, an adorable t-shirt and more to celebrate, you’ll find it here!
There you have it. I hope I did a good job as your personal Auntie shopper. Did you find something for that special Aunt you’re shopping for? Let me know if the comments below! And if anyone from my family is reading this, you know exactly what mug I’d like. Please put that on your Christmas list for me.
