18 best personalized gifts for the one who's hard to impress

As a shopping editor, I see a lot of stuff; therefore, I can tell you from a professional (and personal) standpoint — there is nothing better than a personalized gift.

Speaking for myself, I am very picky (a consequence of the job!), so if something has been customized with my name, initials, birthstone, etc., it automatically falls within the "this is incredible" category. From the viewpoint of my friends and family, the sentiment remains.

Whether a monogrammed accessory, an engraved bottle of perfume, or (my personal favourite) personalized stationery, a custom Christmas gift is an extra thoughtful way to show how much you care.

To celebrate your nearest and dearest, and let's be honest — your pickiest loved ones this holiday season, scroll down to shop 18 personalized gift ideas that everyone can appreciate.
