Dear Reader,
In my heart is a Christmas tree farm…
It’s tiiiiimmmmeeeee! Cue the Christmas music (aka “Christmas Tree Farm”) and holiday celebrations. With Thanksgiving tomorrow (in the US) and Christmas less than a month away, I’m wishing you the most wonderful time of the year 🎄
It’s also the time for Black Friday sales, Cyber Monday deals, and searching for gifts for loved ones. Finding the perfect gift for a Swiftie can feel like an overwhelming task. But don’t worry - this guide has got you covered! With gifts for every era, plus bonus ideas at the end inspired by the Eras Tour and Swiftie fan culture, there’s something here for all Swifties.
I put together this gift guide with all different budgets in mind, and included the price next to each item (ranging from $5 to $150). Keep in mind the prices could change depending on how sales fluctuate over the upcoming weeks. I also compiled the gift ideas I found on Amazon into one list on my Amazon storefront.
So whether you're shopping for a longtime Swiftie or a new fan, these Taylor-inspired gifts are sure to hit all the right notes 🎶
13 Days of Swiftmas
On the first day of Swiftmas…
Kick off the holiday season with 13 Days of Swiftmas! From December 1st-13th, I’ll send daily Dear Reader emails packed with Taylor Swift-inspired goodness. Each email will cover anything from fun facts about her albums, re-recordings, and tours; iconic achievements and outfits; curated playlists and mashups; and so much more. This is a fun and easy way to treat the Swiftie in your life, or for yourself!
For these extra emails you can become a paid subscriber of Dear Reader for $13 for the month of December (normally $5/month for 2 bonus emails), and get exclusive content that will keep you enchanted all month long. I’m having so much fun putting this together, and can’t wait to share the series with you! So why not treat yourself or another Swiftie to this festive celebration of all things Taylor?
