Farewell gift ideas for new parents

Share this list
Worth knowing: A mix of essentials beats guessing one perfect item, and a 3–6 month size gets more use than newborn.
  1. Photo frames1
    Personalised Gifts
    Photo frames₹300 – ₹2,500

    Personal when the photo is right — and the most over-gifted item too.

    • New parents
    • Farewell
    • Before you buy: choose the photo first — a frame is only as good as the picture in it, so pick one they don't already have printed.
    • Not for: someone who's been given several frames recently

  2. Gold & silver coins2
    Festive & Traditional
    Gold & silver coins₹2,000 – ₹1,00,000

    The Dhanteras classic — silver from a few thousand rupees, gold that keeps its value.

    • New parents
    • Practical (no clutter)
    • Before you buy: read the purity: 995 or 999 means 99.5% or 99.9% gold, and 916 is 22-carat. A '999.9' claim is the seller's own, not a BIS grade.
    • Not for: someone who'd rather have a gift to use or wear than something to keep

  3. Resin art keepsakes3
    Art & Craft
    Resin art keepsakes₹500 – ₹5,000

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

    • New parents
    • 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

  4. Custom portraits & illustrations4
    Art & Craft

    A painting or illustration of them — from a photo you share.

    • 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.
    • Not for: a last-minute gift — made-to-order work rarely arrives in days
    How to choose, and all sellers →
  5. Planners & diaries5
    Books & Stationery
    Planners & diaries₹300 – ₹1,500

    Planners, diaries and personalised journals — dated ones must arrive on time.

    • Farewell
    • Reader
    • Practical (no clutter)
    • Before you buy: check the start date: a dated planner must arrive before its year (or academic year) begins; undated ones work any time.
    • Not for: someone who plans everything on their phone

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
