Five Star Gift Ideas

For your grandson who loves vintage shopping and thrift store finds, I have a couple of gift ideas that I hope he will cherish.

1. Vintage Clothing Subscription: Consider gifting him a subscription to a vintage clothing service where he will receive unique and curated pieces of clothing from different eras. This way, he can continue enjoying the thrill of discovering hidden gems and building his vintage collection.

2. Vintage Record Player: If he doesn't have one already, a vintage record player would be a wonderful addition to his love for vintage finds. Look for a refurbished one to ensure that it works well and plays both vinyl records and CDs. You can also include a few vinyl records from his favorite artist or era to kickstart his collection.

3. Thrift Store Map or Guidebook: Help him explore new thrift stores in his area by gifting him a thrift store map or a guidebook. These resources usually highlight the best thrift stores in a specific area or give tips and tricks for finding unique items. This way, he can discover hidden treasures and expand his vintage collection.

4. Custom Vintage Jewelry: Find a local jeweler who specializes in creating custom-made vintage-style jewelry. Consider getting him a unique piece that represents his style and personality. It could be a pendant, bracelet, or even a vintage-inspired ring. This will not only match his love for vintage items but will also hold sentimental value.

5. Vintage Camera: If he has an interest in photography, a vintage camera would be a perfect gift. Look for classic film cameras in good condition that he can use to explore different shooting techniques and capture moments. Include a roll of film to get him started on his vintage photography journey.

6. Personalized Vintage Map Art: Find a vintage map of a place that holds significance in his life, whether it's his hometown, a special vacation spot, or a place he dreams of visiting. Frame the map and add a personalized message or caption to make it more meaningful. This will serve as a beautiful decoration for his room while reminding him of his love for vintage.

7. Vintage Book Set: If he enjoys reading, a set of vintage books could be a thoughtful gift. Look for well-known classics or books from his favorite genre in vintage editions. Consider finding books with unique cover art or even first editions to make the gift extra special.

Remember, the most important aspect of gift-giving is showing that you have taken the time to understand and appreciate his interests. Whatever you choose, I'm sure he will be thrilled and touched by the thoughtfulness behind the gift.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.

“I ordered a print for my boyfriend for his upcoming birthday 7 days ago and received it today. I ordered the anatomical heart one reflecting back on our first date. We love it! It is beautifully done and looks great in the living room!!!”
