The 7 Gifts Rule: Christmas Gifting Made Easy

‘Tis the season for presents, and whatever your budget, we’re here to make sure you’ve got all the inspiration you need. This December, we’re doing things a little differently. Instead of spending money of things they may not use, we’re using the 7 gift rule to buy jewellery instead. Read on to find out more…

4TH DECEMBER 2023 | H. SAMUEL EDITOR

Want to know more about the 7 gifts rule? It’s where you stick to a budget and buy your loved one (or yourself – no judgement here) a set number of gifts. Each present falls into a different category, and by the 24th; you’ll have 7 gifts for them to unwrap.

We’ve taken this concept and adapted it slightly to fit all your jewellery gifting needs. Now we know you’re probably not going to give someone seven different jewellery gifts (well, you can if you want), so we’ve put together jewellery ideas that will fit into each of the below categories and then you can go ahead and choose which category you want to be jewellery focused. Ahead, find out how to take the stress out of Christmas shopping with this handy guide.

Diamond engagement rings

#1 GIFTS THEY WANT: A CHRISTMAS PROPOSAL

We can guarantee that there’ll be many people out there with a proposal on their wish list this year. Are you ready to pop the question? If you’re looking to propose to your partner this year, our engagement ring collection is where you need to be.

From simple solitaires to striking bridal sets, pear shapes to brilliant round, and diamonds to gemstones, the choices are endless. Look to our Forever Diamond selection for sparkling show-stoppers from £499, or Diamond Story engagement rings in white gold, yellow gold and platinum to suit your style. Get ready for a whole load of celebrations this Christmas.

#2 GIFTS THEY NEED: NEW WRISTWEAR

Now when we think about something we need, it really could be anything. But is the person you’re shopping for usually the one that turns up ‘fashionably late’ or asks those around them for the time? Watch gifts are the perfect solution.

Whether you’re looking specifically for men’s watches or ladies’ watches, there are a variety of trending styles from top brands for you to choose from. From Citizen to Casio, Michael Kors and many more, there are styles to suit everyone. Perhaps they like a leather strap? Or is stainless steel more their thing? No problem, we’ve got you covered.

#3 GIFTS TO WEAR: EVERYDAY JEWELLERY GIFTS

Jewellery gifts are something you can’t go far wrong with. Who doesn’t want a new addition to their jewellery box? While diamond jewellery wouldn’t go a miss, a new piece of jewellery they can wear every day (and remind them of you) is definitely something that will be appreciated.

A necklace is a great go-to for everyday wear, or how about an on-trend bangle or ring to add to their wrist and finger stacks? Gold jewellery is perfect for achieving the stacking and layering look that’s the hottest trend right now (and not going anywhere anytime soon), so make the most of it and give them the gift of style.

We all know jewellery elevates every outfit. That's why we've created a collection for all your everyday pieces - our everyday essentials collection. Any piece from this collection would make a perfect, sure-to-be-loved gift.

Personalised gold necklaces

#4 GIFTS TO READ: GET PERSONALISED

Okay, so gifting them something to read may be a little trickier when it comes to jewellery gifting, but of course we found a way to add a ‘reading’ twist to it. Personalisation is the answer. Across a number of pieces, we offer an engraving service so you can add something special to their jewellery.

From initials to a memorable date, personalised jewellery is a great way of turning a gift into a treasured keepsake. Whether it’s for a parent, partner, sibling or friend, you can never go far wrong with a heart-warming message for them to read every time they see your gift.

#5 GIFTS FOR ME: BIRTHSTONES

When it comes to the ‘gifts for me’ category, it’s based around the idea of something that they can really treasure for themselves. We think birthstone jewellery fits just perfectly – what could be more personalised than a gift centred around their own special day? Birthstone jewellery will allow you to give a gift with meaning and they look great, too – a win-win situation.

If you know their birth month, check out our guide to birthstones where you can find everything you need to know about which spectacular gem represents them best.

Smart watches

#6 GIFTS TO DO: GET MOVING WITH A SMARTWATCH

Gifts to do… again while this may not necessarily be something to do, it will definitely motivate them to do something. Not sure what we mean yet? We’re talking about smartwatches and fitness trackers. Fitness trackers (made to track and measure your fitness, of course) are perfect for that gym-loving friend, or a partner with a passion for working out.

Whether it be running, cycling, swimming or tracking their steps per day, an activity tracker will give them all the motivation they need. Not sure which one to go for? Find out more in our complete guide to smartwatches.

#7 GIFTS FOR THE FAMILY: CHILDREN’S JEWELLERY

The whole idea of gifts for the family is to get something that everyone can enjoy together. But this category also works for jewellery gifts. We've got plenty of gift ideas for the adults in the family, and now we've got the children's presents covered, too. They'll love the colourful earrings, silver heart-shaped lockets, delicate bracelets and rings in our children’s jewellery collection. Think rainbows, teddies, butterflies, and lots of Disney – they'll enjoy anything in this range.

We love this 7 gift rule concept, it breaks down lots of simple and creative present ideas they'll be excited to find under the tree. After some more gifting inspiration? Book an appointment with one of Style Advisors in store or online today.
