A holiday wishlist on GiftList is a universal gift-list maker for any celebration—Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Easter, Halloween, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Hanukkah, Diwali, Thanksgiving, New Year’s, and more. Add items from any retailer, tag “Most Wanted,” and share via a unique link so everyone knows exactly what to buy. See our FAQ.

You can build wishlists for virtually every holiday and occasion—Christmas, Easter, Halloween, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Hanukkah, Diwali, Thanksgiving, New Year’s, Cinco de Mayo, St. Patrick’s Day, and more—using the same intuitive interface.

Go to Create Your Holiday Wishlist, sign up for a free GiftList account, name your list (e.g., “Hanukkah 2025 Gifts”), then click “Add Item” to search our catalog or paste any product URL. Organize items, tag “Most Wanted,” and share your unique link.

Yes—you must sign up for a free GiftList account to create and manage your wishlist. Anyone with your unique link can view or reserve items without creating an account.

Paste a URL from ANY online store and GiftList will fetch its name, image, price, and link. Or use the “Add Item” search bar to browse our multi-retailer catalog. You can also add items directly from our mobile apps or ask Genie for AI-powered suggestions.

Click the options menu on any item and select “Most Wanted.” That tag moves it to the top of your list so gift-givers see your highest priorities first.

When someone reserves or buys an item from your holiday wishlist, GiftList automatically marks it as “Purchased,” ensuring no one else can buy the same gift.

Click “Share” on your list page, copy your unique URL, and send via text, email, or social channels. Anyone with that link can view and reserve items.

Yes—invite friends or family by email or username to edit your wishlist together. Collaboration works like a Google Doc: everyone can add, remove, or tag “Most Wanted” items.

We recommend creating your holiday wishlist at least 4–6 weeks before the holiday. This gives friends and family plenty of time to reserve or purchase items.

A balanced holiday wishlist mixes items by category and price:

• Budget: Gifts under $25
• Mid-range: $25–$75
• Splurge: $75+
• Experiences: Gift cards, tickets
• Unique finds: Personalized or handcrafted gifts

Absolutely. Under “My Lists,” create separate wishlists for each holiday—like “Easter Gifts,” “Valentine’s Day Wishlist,” or “Mother’s Day Gifts”—and switch between them easily in your profile.

Genie uses AI to analyze your holiday, recipient details, and budget to generate a curated list of gift ideas with real-time pricing. Try it at giftlist.com/genie.
