Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son enjoys thrift shopping, then there are plenty of personalized and meaningful gift ideas you can consider to enhance his passion. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Thrift Shopping Gift Card: Surprise your son with a gift card to his favorite thrift store or a unique vintage shop in town. This way, he can continue exploring and finding hidden treasures that match his style and interests.

2. Antique or Vintage Decor: Since your son appreciates thrift shopping, he might have a love for unique and antique home decor. Look for vintage items like a retro lamp, antique clock, or a set of vintage vinyl records that he can use to decorate his room or living space.

3. DIY thrifted Fashion Kit: Get creative and put together a DIY thrifted fashion kit for your son. Include some basic sewing supplies, fabric markers, iron-on patches, and a small sewing machine if he doesn't have one already. This will encourage him to upcycle and customize his thrifted clothing finds, giving them a personal touch.

4. Thrifting Guidebook: If your son enjoys the thrill of the hunt and finding hidden treasures, consider gifting him a thrift shopping guidebook. There are several books available that offer tips and tricks for successful thrifting, including information on finding the best thrift stores, identifying valuable pieces, and styling vintage items.

5. Vintage Camera: If your son has an interest in photography, surprise him with a vintage film camera. Not only will this allow him to experiment with different photography techniques, but it will also add a unique touch to his collection. Include a roll of film or gift him a subscription to a film developing service, so he can see the results of his vintage photography.

6. Subscription Box: Consider signing your son up for a monthly subscription box that caters to his love for thrift shopping. There are subscription boxes available that specialize in curated vintage clothing or unique thrifted items. This way, he will receive a surprise package each month, filled with items carefully selected to match his style.

Remember, the key to a meaningful gift is showing that you understand and appreciate your son's interests. By choosing a gift that aligns with his love for thrift shopping, you are not only providing him with something he enjoys but also acknowledging his passion.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
