  1. Resin art keepsakes1
    Art & Craft
    Resin art keepsakes₹500 – ₹5,000

    Preserved flowers, name plates, coasters and clocks set in resin.

    • Artsy and crafty
    • Before you buy: for preserved flowers, contact the artist before the event — the flowers need to reach them quickly and be dried before casting.
    • Not for: a last-minute gift — resin work takes days to cure

  2. String & thread art2
    Personalised Gifts
    String & thread artPrice on enquiry

    A portrait, name or design drawn with thread wound between pins — made by hand from your photo.

    • Artsy and crafty
    • Before you buy: pick a photo with a clear face and strong contrast between light and dark — thread can't show fine, low-contrast detail.
    • Not for: a last-minute gift — it's made by hand, one at a time

  3. Wall art & prints3
    Home & Decor
    Wall art & prints₹500 – ₹2,500

    Personal to get right — pick what they've shown interest in.

    • Artsy and crafty
    • Before you buy: only buy art you've seen them like — look at what's on their walls, or what they save and share.
    • Not for: someone whose home and taste you don't know well

  4. DIY craft kits4
    Art & Craft
    DIY craft kits₹500 – ₹4,000

    Everything needed to make something — a creative evening in a box.

    • Artsy and crafty
    • Before you buy: check the kit is complete — materials, tools and instructions or a video — so they don't need a trip to a shop first.
    • Not for: someone who finds fiddly handwork frustrating

  5. Branded merchandise5
    Corporate Gifting
    Branded merchandise₹200 – ₹2,000

    Logo mugs, bottles, diaries and tees that people actually keep.

    • Before you buy: keep the logo small and the item good: people keep a quality bottle with a small logo, not a cheap one with a big logo.
    • Not for: clients whose company rules don't let them accept gifts

Only a few ideas fit this closely

Try widening the budget beyond Under ₹500, or remove an answer. When nothing feels right, two gifts rarely miss:

An experience voucherCash in a good envelope, with a small add-on

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
