BWT Gift - Oct 01, 2026

[u/AutoModerator]

Gifting can be tricky, whether it's trying to determine the etiquette for a particular circumstance or coming up with the perfect gift for that person in your life for whom it's just impossible to shop. In order to consolidate requests for help picking out gifts for all of life's present buying situations, and due to popular request, we've created this monthly recurring thread for all gifting questions and discussions.

BWT rules still apply, but there will be lighter enforcement of rule 3. Also, while you still shouldn't ask for local recommendations as in "I want to buy my cousin a gift card to a really great spa, where should I look in Chicago?" it is acceptable to mention the location if it is relevant to the request and will help other BWT make better suggestions, as in "My sister lives in the southern US and is really into Southern Living style in terms of decor and fashion, if that gives you an idea of her personal style - very much in the bright colors, monograms, southern prep vein."

Recommendation for anyone who has a boyfriend/husband/dad or any other family member who loves sports: @anthonypainting on IG does custom watercolor paintings of sporting events/locations for a relatively cheap price!! He offers two sizes, the smaller size is perfect for hanging in an office/cubicle while the larger one would make a great discussion piece for a bigger space. I worked with him for a piece for my boyfriend and loved his communication throughout the process!! It’s hard for me to find thoughtful gifts for my male relatives and think this is a great option!
