But finding the perfect graduation gift for her can be a real challenge. Do you go for a sentimental graduation gift such as jewellery or something practical such as a purse or bag? How much should you spend and what is considered a good graduation gift for her? 


Well, never fear because Estella Bartlett is here to answer all of your graduation gift buying questions. Read our university graduation gift ideas for her guide and find the perfect gift that will show her how full of pride you are.


How Much Should I Spend On A Graduation Gift? 

When buying a graduation gift for her, more emphasis should be placed on how much thought has gone into the gift rather than how much it costs.

Set yourself a realistic budget of what you can afford and find a gift that sits within that. It truly is the thought that counts and not how much you have spent.


What Is A Good Graduation Gift? 

There are lots of things that can be considered a good graduation gift. From sentimental graduation gifts such as photo albums to jewellery graduation gifts that she can treasure forever, the options are truly endless.


However when choosing to buy a graduation gift, you should consider what will give her the most joy or what will she get the most use out of. 


For example if she’s starting a new job in the big city, a card purse or bag could be a great option as it will keep all of her essentials safely stored away in style. Alternatively, if she’s really fascinated by crystals and semi precious stones, then a piece of gemstone jewellery would make the perfect gift.


However you choose to congratulate her on her graduation day, be sure to keep her interests, personality and style in mind.
