Gifts That Work for Literally Everyone

Sometimes you don't know the person well enough to be specific, and that's fine. You still need to show up with something. The standard move in this situation — a gift card, a candle, a box of chocolates from the display near the register — is not wrong, but it doesn't do much. It says 'I participated.' What you want is something that says 'I participated and I have decent taste.' That's actually achievable without any personal information at all. There are a handful of things that are good enough to work on almost anyone — things that feel considered in the hand, that photograph well, that don't require the recipient to be a specific kind of person to use or appreciate. This is those things.
