Cozy gifts are hard to get wrong, but a few miss more often than you’d think.
- Clothing in a guessed size. Robes, pajamas, and boots need the right fit. Pick throws, socks, and slippers with forgiving sizing, or include a gift receipt.
- Strong scents for unknown tastes. Candles and bath products are personal. Choose a classic scent, or a flameless or unscented option, if you’re not sure.
- Cheap fleece that pills. Bargain blankets can shed and pill after one wash. Spend a little more on a throw with strong reviews.
- Heated products without safety features. Look for automatic shutoff on heated throws, blankets, and pads.
