Whether she’s 22 or 42, graduation is a monumental event in your daughter’s life!

If you’re looking for unique and thoughtful grad gifts for your daughter, look no further! We’ve found the perfect presents to celebrate her bright future.
Protect Your Investment
When it comes to displaying treasured college memories, why would you settle on a lackluster, mass-produced frame for your daughter? Get her the very best: a custom, handcrafted Church Hill Classics diploma frame featuring her college’s official school seal or logo. With an array of diploma frame styles (and college picture frames!) guaranteed to suit any and every decor, you’ll find the perfect frames to adorn her first post-college apartment. Looking for a truly unique graduation frame? Wow her with a state-of-the-art Dimensions® diploma frame! These game-changers feature our industry-exclusive (shhhh!) dimensional printing process, which creates eye-catching textured lettering and elevated school logos that POP in vibrant hues.
A Reel Great Idea
What better way to celebrate this major milestone in your daughter’s life than with a nostalgic trip down memory lane? Legacybox is a digital conversion service that takes all of your favorite recorded memories, photos, slides, negatives, VHS tapes, audio cassettes, and film reels, and digitally preserves them on DVDs or thumb drives. Whether for a high school grad going away to college or a university alum moving into her first apartment, she’ll have a treasure trove of family memories at her fingertips whenever she’s feeling a bit homesick.
A Grad Gift That’ll Make Her Plush
Looking for a one-of-a-kind grad gift that will bring a smile to her face? Budsies Selfies can turn friends and family members into custom plush dolls! Simply upload a digital photo of the person you wish to transform into a huggable stuffed toy, and Budsies’ team of designers will create a custom pattern, match the fabrics and colors in the photo, and then cut and sew it all together, adding everything down to the last detail (including freckles!). You can even add a voice recorder to the doll to include a special graduation message from Mom and Dad. If she’d prefer a stuffed animal, what about creating a Petsie, a plush lookalike of her furry (or scaly or feathery) family member? That way she’ll always have a huggable reminder of home no matter how far away she is!
The Write Idea
Thanks to Heartfelt Books, you don’t need to be a writer to create a personalized hardbound book that expresses just how proud you are of your daughter’s accomplishments. To craft the content, you simply answer a mix of short-response, long-response, fill-in-the-blank, and multiple choice questions (you get to select the questions you want to answer and skip the ones you don’t). You can add inspirational quotes, reflect on special memories, offer words of wisdom, and there’s even a dedication page for a thoughtful inscription from Mom and Dad. You select the font you want to use and can choose from one of six beautiful leatherette book covers. And, you can even leave some pages blank to include photos and handwritten messages.
Shining Grad Gift Ideas
They already have the standard college swag, sweatshirts, hats, shorts, and other bookstore gear emblazoned with their university’s logo. So, what about a special piece of jewelry to commemorate her alma mater or to signify the start of her college freshman year? Gift her with a gorgeous M. LaHart sterling silver ring featuring a color-enamel university logo on a sterling silver charm. Or, opt for a finely detailed rendering of her school’s official seal on a Sterling Silver Round Signet Ring. Best of all, you can personalize this stunning piece of jewelry with an engraved inscription on the inside of the ring and add her graduation date and initials to the sides for free.
