As a professional organizer, I often notice how hard it is for my clients to part with gifts that were given to them a long time ago. Often these gifts are no longer useful, but are kept for sentimental reasons or because they don’t want to hurt the gift giver’s feelings. Sometimes, the best gifts are those that don’t take up any space. Here are some clutter-free gift ideas I’m sure your family will love!

I LOVE clutter-free gifts!!
My husband and I gift our niece and nephew a season pass to their local waterpark. It gives them something to look forward to after Christmas is over! The waterpark also includes several free food items and a couple of VIP guest passes if you buy the pass early and don’t wait until warm weather arrives. This has been a hit through their ‘tween and teenage years and their parents have enjoyed knowing they’ll never hear “I’m bored!” during the summer 🙂
Hi Sherry! Giving season passes is a GREAT idea! The gift that keeps on giving… I think I’ll be giving a few of these this year. Thanks so much for your comment! :)~Leigh
I really like the day at a spa gift. That is such a good idea! 🙂 Thanks for sharing this list!
Yes! Who wouldn’t love a day at the spa? I’ll take one any day. 🙂 Glad you enjoyed it!
I sent a citrus gift through Cushman’s to my parents and sister’s family.
What a great idea! I’ll keep something like that in mind for next year. 🙂
Loving this list- so practical and simple and even better, you don’t have to store these items!
Good! I’m glad this post was helpful to you…thanks for commenting!
I love this list, so practical and simple! Funny how so much of what we get during the holidays (present-wise) ends up being old news by the next Christmas.
Those are great ideas. I am all for keeping things simple. My latest post was on not giving out Christmas Cards… hope I don’t get booed by my family 🙂
That’s so funny! This is the first year that I didn’t do the whole Christmas card thing and I feel less stressed about it! I’m going to pop over and check out your post. Thanks for commenting. 🙂
The verdict is out on how my followers will respond. If it would ever stop snowing I could actually get out and have that Americana I am dreaming about. 🙂
Well this follower is with you! Hail to a stress-free life…
Wonderful ideas! I do hate gifts that create clutter and we all feel the same about not wanting to get rid of someone’s present. ~M.
Thanks for your comment. It’s good to know that I’m not the only one who feels that way. 🙂
Great ideas! These suggestions go a long way toward simplifying Christmas shopping.
I’m glad you found them helpful! Thanks for your comment. 🙂
I give soap and other cleaning products like toilet cleaner, laundry detergent, scouring pads, etc. I get the glammed up versions for Christmas.
That’s a great idea…never thought of that! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
No problem. I hate clutter too and I would never want to impose it on someone else.
I have a co-worker that is planning to take friends and family on outings and activities in Dec/Jan rather than buying presents. For kids, I get art supplies since they are fun to unwrap, but consumable.
That’s a great idea to take friends out and have fun together…usually we think of just giving them something. That type of gift will definitely be memorable. Thanks for commenting! 🙂
I love your ideas! I do hate dealing with all the stuff I have that I hardly want any more. 🙂
Thanks! I’m glad the post was helpful to you! 🙂
Love this!!! Great suggestions for gifts to help relieve stress and clutter! Another item for your list might be a gift certificate for your professional organizing services!
Now why didn’t I think of that?! 😉
