Best gifts for the Gemini in your life

Illustration of twins dancing together surrounded by gifts.

Extroverted, curious and indecisive, a Gemini loves to party and is interested in everything (especially anything that deals with talking/communicating). Here are our top gift picks from Amazon for this exceptionally enthusiastic sign of the zodiac.

Something that keeps up with their social life

Geminis are SUPER extroverted, like to talk a lot and are excellent at communication. So naturally, they have pretty active social lives.

Pop It Phone Case for iPhone®: There’s a reason this is first on the list—Geminis are practically glued to their phones. Upgrade their basic phone case to this bubble-wrap-but-make-it-re-poppable design.

stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick: Yeah, we’re putting lipstick here. Why? Because chatty Geminis like to keep their pout on point, and this all-day formula means it will stay on through even the longest of conversations. 

Parker Sonnet Ballpoint Pen: Oh, did you think Geminis are only into verbalizing their thoughts? Nope! As prolific writers (they’re ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication), they need to have a trusty pen at hand.

Rocketbook Fusion Smart Reusable Notebook: As great as they are at communicating, Gems are also apt to change their minds. A lot. This reusable notebook is perfect for them (they can also upload their notes onto a variety of cloud services).

FUJIFILM instax Mini 11 Instant Camera: Where there are people hanging out, there will be pictures taken.

Portable Charger Power Bank: You know how Tinker Bell needs attention to get through the day? A Gemini needs their phone to be well-charged to do the same. 

Logitech Wireless Ergonomic Keyboard: All of that typing takes a toll on the nerves. An ergonomic keyboard might be just what the doctor will order.

Something to help them make decisions (or not)

Never ask a Gemini to make a decision, because they will doubtless change it several times.

The Essential Tarot Card Deck: Why should they try to decide upon something when they can look at the cards and see what’s coming? (The art on this set is gorgeous, BTW.) 

The Magic 8 Ball: Doesn’t matter what age they are—a classic is a classic. 

Bean Box Coffee + Chocolate Tasting Box: This could be viewed as a “discover which coffee is your new go-to” or “you can’t decide, so here’s everything” gift. Regardless, Gems are really into boosting their already energetic personalities with coffee, so it works.

“Word Perfect: Etymological Entertainment Every Day” by Susie Dent: Gems are extremely clever and love learning new things. This book will give them MORE words to figure out how to work into their conversations, but we think they’ll be okay with this kind of indecision.

Gold Rim Green Agate Coasters: Green agates are purported to be adept at helping people make decisions. We can’t decide if we believe that, but we do think this is a lovely addition to a Gem’s table. These vintage-inspired green agate earrings are another option!

NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Matte Liquid Lipstick 2-Pack: We love NYX because it’s an affordable-yet-great beauty line. So if your Gemini decides that they want to change their lip color 5 mins after applying it, they have another fantastic shade to choose from.

Something that’s ready to party

Host or guest, Gems love a celebration! 

Travel Bartender 17-Piece Kit Bag: They can bring the party with them wherever they go with this handy set. 

Beer Flight Caddy with Glasses: This beer flight caddy means they’ll never have to choose which brew to imbibe (see the section about indecision above).

Mixologist 18-Piece Cocktail Set: We promise not everything is about alcohol here, but we had to include this great cocktail glass starter set for the Gem who can't decide on a signature drink.

New Phone, Who Dis? Party Game: A card game about replying to text messages creatively? Surely a Gemini came up with this.

Photo Clip String Lights: Great for party decor. Great for remembering past parties. Great for swapping out photos when they fancy a change.

Porcelain Tea Set for 6: Everyone’s seen Bridgerton, right? Even if you haven’t, an afternoon tea party is a delightful way to gather with friends and catch up on all the gossip (and Gems do love a bit of gossip).

“The Ultimate Book of Pub Trivia by the Smartest Guy in the Bar”: In addition to being hungry for more knowledge, Gems are known as a Jack-of-all-trades. They’ll love sharing these random factoids at their next party.

“Booze & Vinyl: A Spirited Guide to Great Music and Mixed Drinks”: There are a staggering amount of mixology books out there. But we like this one because it pairs delicious drink recipes with iconic songs to enjoy together. 

Echo 4th Gen: This Amazon smart speaker works with several music apps to deliver a rich sound while taking up little room.

Too Faced Hangover Rx 3-in-1 Mist: Their skin may need a little pick-me-up post-party.

Something that comes in twos

Their symbol is a pair of twins, so this feels like it should be a gifting category.

Slouchy Y2K Hobo Bag: The Y2K aesthetic has taken over pretty much everything, and when it means dual front pockets on a roomy purse, we’re completely here for it. 

Kate Spade New York Daesha Sunglasses: Unless they’re into monocles with UV protection, it’s best to buy shades as a pair. And this pair goes with everything.

Fluffy Faux Fur Slides: Vogue also says that fluffy faux fur is in, and we love that this pair of slides comes with detachable fluff for those times when a plain slide is desired.

Dual Brush Marker Pens: Gems love to journal, and this top-reviewed set of dual brush marker pens means they can color and scribble their way to happiness without fear of having the wrong pen tip.

Kendra Scott Elisa Necklace: Layered necklaces never go out of style, and the Kendra Scott double-strand one features a shimmering iridescent drusy for extra pizazz. 

Set of 2 Whiskey Glasses: Remember all of the partying Geminis do? This stunning set of modern whiskey glasses is ideal for a more intimate gathering. Whiskey not their thing? This set of 2 martini glasses is a great alternative.

Something yellow

Every sign has a power color, and Geminis are lucky to have the brightest one of all!

Lined Journal Notebook: We’ve already mentioned how Gems are natural-born writers, so this perfectly sized notebook (with a bright yellow cover) certainly has the write stuff.

Fjallraven Kanken Sling Crossbody: Designed to last a lifetime, this small dirt- and water-resistant bag is still big enough to hold the essentials (including a Gemini’s cell phone).

Minimalist Waterproof Leather Watch: You need to click and see this to truly understand why it made the list. Spoiler alert: it’s super cool-looking.

Preserved Yellow Roses: Preserved roses are really having a moment right now. Well, they’re preserved so technically, more than a moment. Anyways, they come in yellow!

Boho Sunflower Hair Clips & Headband Set: Even when it’s not festival season, your party-loving Gem can get into the festival vibe with these sunny blooms.

Scandi Ceramic Ripple Vases: This contemporary set of vases means they can change up their vase game as they see fit. 

14K Gold Plated Mismatched Heart Earrings: Yellow gold counts as a yellow thing, right? We say it does, simply because 1. Mismatched earrings are trendy right now and 2. This pair is really cute.

Something for their carefree lifestyle

Some see Geminis as impulsive air signs. We like to think of them as carefree, high-energy adventurers.

BrüMate Toddy Leak-Proof Travel Coffee Mug: You want coffee. A Gemini NEEDS it. This travel mug will keep them caffeinated on the go.

Mini Buddha Board: The premise is simple: “paint” a picture using water and it disappears as it dries. As Gems change their mind so frequently, this art of impermanence should appeal to them. 

Expandable Carry-On Luggage 2-Piece Set: Geminis love to travel, but don’t tend to spend a lot of time in one place. This carry-on luggage set is ideal for a quick trip to a new place.

Compression Travel Organizers: The only downside to packing everything into a carry-on is trying to make it all fit. These will help!

“The New York Times 36 Hours Europe”: Speaking of short trips, this book is full of excellent long-weekend plans across Europe. If your Gem would rather stay a bit closer to home, there’s always “Fodor’s Best Weekend Road Trips”.

12-Pack Ionantha Air Plants: Geminis are one of the three air signs, so not only does this set of air plants play into that, but they’re also super low-maintenance. This is good because let’s face it, Gems are always busy!

Something only a Gemini can proudly own

They might not always know what they like, but they definitely love being Gems!

Gemini Zodiac Candle: Handmade in Oregon of soy wax, you can add a personalized message to the candle lid to make your Gemini feel *extra* special.

Gemini Personalized Journal: Surprise, surprise, another gift related to writing!

CZ Adjustable Gemini Bracelet: Geminis aren’t the most subtle, but this dainty bracelet is!

Gemini Tote Bag: Too many totes bags is not a thing. 

“Gemini: Harness the Power of the Zodiac”: We’ve featured other zodiac books from this series before, and what can we say, we really love them (and so will your Gem).

Gemini Neon Wall Sign: Their personalities light up the room, so why shouldn’t their Gemini decor?

Geminis aren’t always the most sentimental of folks, but as avid readers and writers, they’ll enjoy receiving an eCard from you on their special day!

What is a SignUp Sheet?

Signup sheets are the perfect way to streamline scheduling, volunteer recruitment, class parties, snack duty, potluck organization, parent-teacher conferences and more! You can think of them as your digital assistant for coordinating events and tasks and ensuring that your event is a success.

Evite SignUp Sheets offers parents, teachers and event planners customizable online forms that organizers and volunteers can access and update effortlessly. Volunteers can choose their preferred time slots, sign up for tasks or indicate what they'll bring to the event. It only takes organizers a few minutes to create a signup sheet and send it out with a shareable link, so they can get the word out via text, email or social media—whichever way they prefer! 

Long story short, SignUp Sheets save everyone involved tons of time, avoid scheduling headaches and ensure everything runs smoothly before and during the event.

How do I create a SignUp Sheet?

Creating a signup sheet has never been easier than with Evite! Here’s how to create a sheet that’s sure to make your event an absolute success:

  1. Go to Evite SignUp Sheets and choose the template that best fits your needs. Evite offers multiple signup sheet templates perfect for every occasion, including:
    • Signup sheets for one day events (without different time slots), perfect for when you’re organizing a class party, potluck or end-of-season party.
    • Signup sheets for single or multiple day events (with time slots), perfect for when you’re organizing concession stand volunteers, fundraisers, parent-teacher conferences, meal train, post-game snack duty or during appreciation week.
  1. After selecting your sheet template, create a title for your signup sheet and add the date, the location, the time (if applicable), who the organizer is, the organizer’s phone number or email and an optional note describing the event to your volunteers. You can also change your signup sheet background and title image if you wish!
  1. Next, create slots for your signup sheet. If you aren’t logged into your account, you will need to do so at this point, but luckily, you can use your existing Evite account (no need to create yet another login!). What you’ll include here will depend on what your event needs, but you can include a list of what’s needed (along with optional descriptions), how many volunteers are needed, and dates and times.
  1. After creating your slots, you can then add a wish list from any retailer or include supply suggestions from Evite’s retailer partners. These are to help your volunteers find and purchase supplies quickly and easily.
  1. Finally, review your sheet, copy your shareable link and send it out to everyone on your list! Every time a volunteer signs up for a slot on your signup sheet, Evite will email you. We will also send reminders to you and your volunteers before your event so no one will forget about it, and we’ll even let volunteers know if you remove their slot or cancel your event sheet so you don’t have to!

What information should be included on a SignUp Sheet?

When it comes to signup sheet information, there are some essentials to include regardless of what you’re organizing:

  1. A title for your signup sheet. Tip: Aim to keep your signup sheet title concise but clear. You want volunteers to read it and have a general understanding of what your event is about, and also make it easy for them to look for later if they need to reference your sheet again. You have the option to include a more descriptive note in a different field about your event, so save the more in-depth details for that!
  1. When and where the event is taking place. 
  1. The organizer’s name and phone number.
  1. Slots for volunteers to choose from. Once you choose the SignUp Sheets template that fits the occasion, the slots you’ll need for your sheet will be right there and ready for you to add the relevant info, such as dates, times, items to bring and tasks to complete. 

When adding your slot information, clearly define what people are signing up for, especially for a what-to-bring list or role assignments. If you want someone to bring healthy snacks for kids to enjoy after a game, specify that. You want your volunteers to feel confident in what they’re bringing and to make it easy for them to know what’s expected of them. It will save them time and stress (and you, too!). That being said, if you make your ask too specific (for example, asking for a hard-to-source item or something expensive), you may not end up with a volunteer for it. So be clear about what you expect, but also be reasonable!

Aside from providing the basic signup information, you can also add optional descriptions to both your entire signup sheet and individual slots. While not required, they can help guide your volunteers further and provide more information. You can add information about allergies, preferences and general info about the event. You can also add a wish list to make it easier for your volunteers to bring exactly what you need!

What are the benefits of using a SignUp Sheet template?

Signup sheet templates offer a ton of advantages for both organizers and volunteers and with Evite SignUp Sheets, you'll enjoy even more benefits than other digital and paper signup sheets! Some benefits our signup sheet templates offer include:

  • A 100% free experience (no subscriptions required!).
  • Shareable links for quick and easy sharing.
  • No need to create another login—you can use your existing Evite account.
  • The option to add a wish list to help your volunteers out.
  • Automatic reminders—we’ll remind everyone on your behalf.
  • An easy-to-use experience with eye-catching guided templates.
  • Clean, modern designs with no pop-up ads.

With Evite SignUp Sheets, you can enjoy organizing and coordinating all your events with ease. Signup sheets streamline the signup process for everyone involved, ensuring that everything will go to plan on the day of your event while saving you precious time in the process.
