Worth knowing: A mix of essentials beats guessing one perfect item, and a 3–6 month size gets more use than newborn.

- New parents
- Artsy and crafty
- Before you buy: share a sharp, well-lit photo where faces are clear — the portrait can only be as good as the photo.

How this list is made: only two hard rules — it stays within your budget and never shows what you asked to avoid. Everything else ranks rather than removes, each pick shows which of your answers it matched, and nobody pays to appear here. How GiftScene works
