What is a Christmas list?

A Christmas list is a wishlist of the gifts you'd like to find under the tree. Share it with family and friends before the holidays so they know what to get you. It saves them panic shopping in the last week before Christmas and saves you returning things in January. Making your Christmas wish list online also means fewer duplicates on Christmas morning.

When to make your Christmas list

The earlier the better, ideally in October or early November. That gives family and friends plenty of time to order, especially for items that might sell out or need to ship from abroad. With Happy Giftlist, building your Christmas wish list is simple. Paste in product links from Amazon, ASOS, Etsy or any store you like, and we'll pull in the name, image and price automatically.

What to put on your Christmas list

Keep it varied: a couple of things you actually need, some fun extras, and at least one or two items at lower price points for guests on a tighter budget. Seasonal pieces, cozy winter things (a soft blanket, a really nice candle), and experiences like a spa or restaurant gift card all work well. Always include the exact product link so there's no confusion about color, size, or style.

How to share your Christmas list with the whole family

Drop the link to your online Christmas list in the family group chat, send it by email, or share it on social media. You can also copy the short code so people can look up your list on happygiftlist.com, or download a QR code to print on a Christmas card. Nobody needs an account to view the list. If the whole family uses Happy Giftlist, everyone can build and share their own holiday gift list. Nobody has to keep a spreadsheet or call around to ask what Mom wants this year, and nobody buys the same thing twice.

A free Christmas list maker for the whole family

Happy Giftlist works as a Christmas wish list maker for kids, parents and grandparents alike. Add gifts from any store, put them in order of priority and share the link. When everyone keeps their own list, you know what to get each of them well before Christmas Eve.
