Hi!
It's graduation season and that means the grad party circuit is in FULL swing. If you've got a ton of party invites then this blog post is for you! If, however, you're the one having the party than head back and check out my first post on being the party THROWER.
The school year is winding down and half your friends are about to graduate-- that means YOU'VE got a full social calendar the next 4 weeks; am I right?

But what the heck do you get everyone as a gift? And how do you look like you actually care about the person without having to spend all your hard-earned moola before the fun Summer even starts?!
Gift buying is hard enough without having to buy gifts for 12 different people. So, to help, I have compiled a list of great gift ideas that everyone will love but won't mean you have to mow your grandpa's lawn for the rest of eternity just to pay for them all.
1. Personalized iPhone cover with a picture of you and the graduate-- perfect for your close friends! Some great options can be found here:http://www.
2. A box of their favorite K-Cup instant coffee.
Saves them money AND time so they don't have to stand in line at the coffee shop before they dash to class! Obviously they have to have a Keurig machine if you buy them K-Cups. But if you're not sure just buy them Starbucks Via-- instant coffee packs. Just add hot water!)

3. Collage Picture Frame
You have photos plastered all over your room and locker, right? A dorm room is no different, trust me- so having places to stash the photos is a PERFECT gift!
Check this one out from Target: http://www.target.com/p/10-

That leads me to another great gift idea:
4. Cork Boards!
They're the perfect way to save ticket stubs from football games and slap up homework reminders so they never forget their next test. Plus they come in really unique styles now (none of that brown boring stuff) so you can really personalize it to each friend!https://www.etsy.com/listing/
Be sure to add in a cute set of push pins too to really make it a fun gift!These ones look like ice cream cones! http://www.

5. Vera Bradley Double ID holder
Any college student will tell you the less you have to worry about the better; so a small clasp-shut wallet to slip ID's, credit card, and a bit of cash into is the perfect gift for someone headed off to college. PLUS Vera offers them at a great price for such a good looking little wallet!
It's comes in 19 colors, too so you don't have to worry about getting two people the exact same one!http://www.verabradley.com/
Last but certainly not least:

6. Gift cards
You simply can't go wrong with gift cards. Target. Amazon.com. Zappos. Wal*Mart. and even Gas gift cards are great.
Regardless of what you decide to get everyone I promise they'll just be happy you showed up to their party. By the time graduation and the day of the party rolls around your friends will just want to celebrate and having you there with them is really all they will care about.
Let me know what you're thinking of getting in the comments below! Or if you have any better ideas it would be great if you shared them so others can *borrow* your idea, too!
Best,
