Are you a talented (or at least half-decent) cook? Make the birthday person their favorite meal, and if possible, invite their closest friends and family to join you for dinner! The caring gesture of a home-cooked meal made with love is one they definitely won’t forget.
5. Put together a personalized time capsule

This 60th birthday gift idea involves a lot more than just running to the store and buying something. However, the extra effort is worth it because the result is an amazing way to demonstrate your appreciation and love for your soon-to-be 60-year-old! Gather letters, photos, mementos, and more from friends and family, put them in a box or container, and set a date in the future when you’ll open the time capsule together.
6. Personalized jewelry

Instead of buying them a generic piece of jewelry, why not go with something a little more personal: a piece of customized jewelry that’s unique to them? For instance, the famous Tiffany & Co offers a variety of personalized jewelry options that’ll make for an incredibly special gift.
7. A spa day, mani/pedis, or a massage

If the person in question has trouble slowing down and investing time and money in self-care, show them that they deserve it by taking them out for a spa day, mani-pedis, a massage, or some other form of pampering that they’ll enjoy. As a bonus, if the two of you go together, you’ll get to spend quality time with your loved one. And that’s more valuable than any gift you could give them!
8. Custom pet socks

For someone who especially loves their pet, buy them a pair of socks with their beloved cat or dog’s face on them, courtesy of FurBaby Socks. These custom socks are a total conversation starter, which means the birthday person will have even more chances to brag about their fur baby to strangers and friends alike!
9. A high-quality wallet

If they’re about to turn 60, it’s a fair bet that they have a wallet that’s seen a lot of use and built up quite a bit of wear and tear. That’s why replacing their old wallet with a beautiful new one is a truly thoughtful yet practical gift since it’s something they need to use pretty much every day. Check out Wirecutter’s list of the best slim wallets for some top-notch suggestions in a variety of materials, colors, and designs.
