55 Gilmore Girls gift ideas

True Story: When my son was born, I planned to take a month off from writing this shopping blog to care for him AND binge-watch TV. (These things go hand-in-hand, right?!) My goal was to watch all seven seasons of The Gilmore Girls, which seemed pretty achievable since I can binge-watch with the best of them. Unfortunately, life got in the way, and I found that I just wasn’t interested in watching anything on TV. Who knew I’d be so enamored with my baby that TV wouldn’t be a priority?! Anyhow, it ultimately took me five years to watch the entire Gilmore Girl series – including the Netflix specials – but I did it! 

Because I am spending way too much time thinking about the Gilmore Girls these days, I can’t help but get excited when I find gift ideas that I think my fellow Gilmore Girls groupies would love. If you count yourself among their fans (or are shopping for someone who is), this list of Gilmore Girls Gift Ideas is for you.

55 Gilmore Girls Gift Ideas

In Omnia Paratus Poster

In Omnia Paratus Poster

Maker: Window Shop Gal

Based on the sheer volume of items I found with the words “In Omnia Paratus” that were in specific reference to this episode of Gilmore Girls, I feel confident saying it was a favorite of many (most?) watchers, myself included. Obviously, this poster references the show but is also subtle enough that non-Gilmore watchers won’t give you a weird look if it’s hanging in your living room.


Stars Hollow Autumn Festival Poster

Maker: Window Shop Gal

Yes, it’s the same maker, but how could I not include this Autumn Festival poster? It’s giving me all the cozy Stars Hollow vibes!


Gilmore Girls At Home in Stars Hollow Picture Book

You know how you know the love for Gilmore Girls isn’t waning? New products, like this picture book, are still being released! A Facebook friend of mine recently said this is the book she and her daughter read together every night and it’s a great primer before they begin watching the series together.

Here’s another fantastic review from Amazon:

“This book is beautifully illustrated and written. It is the perfect way to share your love of Gilmore Girls with the next generation. It has little gems hidden throughout that tie the book to the beloved series. I seriously could spend a long time just appreciating the details in the illustrations. It also includes a beautiful message that home is about the people, not the place and family doesn’t have to be related by blood.

If you end up buying this (which you absolutely should!), Make sure to take a peak under the dust jacket!”


The Unofficial Gilmore Girls Activity Book

Maker: The Frugal Doodler

In my opinion, Gilmore Girls is like Chicken Soup for the Soul. I don’t think I’m alone in thinking this – there’s a reason why people continue to love it years after the series ended! This Activity Book looks like the perfect companion. There’s a word search, sudoku, and more. It won’t take long to complete, but for the right person it would be a unique Gilmore Girls gift idea!


Stamped Coffee Spoon

Maker: Rebekah’s Valentine

“Everything in my life has something to do with coffee. I believe in a former life, I was coffee.” Lorelai and Rory really loved their coffee, and this spoon would be a fabulous gift for your favorite Gilmore-loving coffee drinker!


What She Tackles She Conquers Notebook

Maker: Paper Rocket Studio

Is this the perfect notebook to get you motivated, or what? Write out your daily to-do list and then get going. Conquer all the things!


Gilmore Girls Mini Figures

Maker: Art is Science

These mini figures would be perfect for a bookshelf, mantle, or desk!


Drinking Coffee Like a Gilmore Mug

Maker: Warm & Muggy Shop

Are there any coffee lovers out there who don’t drink coffee like the Gilmores? Although I admit that I generally prefer a delicious pumpkin spice latte


Gilmore Girls Tea Towel

Bring a little bit of iconic Stars Hollow food-related items to the kitchen with this fun tea towel!


Where You Lead, I Will Follow Keychain

Maker: G3Designs

I am positive that I’m not alone in belting out that ridiculously catchy theme song every single time I hear it! Carole King is a goddess! 


Talking As Fast As I Can by Lauren Graham

Talking As Fast As I Can: From Gilmore Girls to Gilmore Girls (and Everything In-Between) by Lauren Graham

Lauren Graham wrote a book about her experiences as Lorelei Gilmore (and the rest of her life) . A New York Times best-seller, this is a fabulous Gilmore Girls Gift Idea. (Perhaps partner it with a Gilmore Girls mug and some coffee!)


Gilmore Girl Itty Bittys

These little stuffies are cute, but the details make them even cuter. For instance, Lorelai is holding a Luke’s coffee cup, and Rory is holding a book and journal.


Emily Gilmore Tee

Maker: Seacoast US

Do you need an Emily Gilmore gift? If so, I really love this tee!

Side Note: After finishing the show, Emily Gilmore was my favorite character. That might be sacrilege but I loved her dry humor.


Gilmore Girls 5-Bar Soap Crate

Maker:

I’m borrowing this description from the listing so you get the full gist of how thoughtful this soap crate is… it’s definitely a unique Gilmore Girls gift idea!

“This five bar Gilmore Girl inspired soap set of handmade artisan soaps comes in an adorable wooden crate, it is packaged perfectly for gift giving. Each bar of soap is handmade with great detail. Each crate includes one bar each of Thousand Yellow Daisies (spring flowers and daisies), Babette Ate Oatmeal (white/red roses, jasmine, melon, plum and amber-a pure oatmeal bar), Luke’s (smells like coffee and chocolate donuts), Founders Day Punch (wine, cranberry and cherry’s) and I Smell Snow (wintery air combined with Jasmine and Sandalwood.)”


Gilmore Girls Colored Pencils

Pair these colored pencils with a Gilmore Girls coloring book for a thoughtful gift. Each of the colored pencils features something related to the show.


The Women of Gilmore Girls Tee

Maker: Rosie Tees

Who was your favorite woman on the cast? This tee could lead to hours worth of conversations.


Eat Like a Gilmore Cookbook

Eat Like a Gilmore: The Unofficial Cookbook for Fans of Gilmore Girls by Kristi Carlson

Official Description:

Whether you’re a diehard fan or new to the scene, author Kristi Carlson invites you to pull up a chair and dig in. Luke’s diner menu, Sookie’s eclectic inn fare, Emily’s fancy Friday Night Dinners, and town favorites are the key influences behind these tempting dishes. One hundred recipes, covering all the bases from appetizers and cocktails to entrées and desserts, invoke key episodes and daily scenes in the Gilmores’ lives. Prepare yourself for:

  • Salmon Puffs
  • Risotto
  • Pumpkin Pancakes
  • Rocky Road Cookies
  • The Birthday Girl Cocktail
  • And many more!

The reviews for this Gilmore Girls Cookbook are stellar! For instance:

“This cookbook is adorable and so well thought out. The people who put this together really spent good time and energy into making this perfect with research of the correct methods for certain recipes and making sure to add in details for fans. It was like experiencing the show from a new perspective and as a lover of cooking/baking this was the perfect meeting of the minds for me. They is also an awesome section on drinks which includes a recipe for Gilmore Girl’s Founder’s Day Punch that looks like it’ll knock off anyone’s socks and the perfect martini as well as some fun nonboozy options which I thought was really great since many cookbooks no longer have those types of sections in them and the show did have a lot of different drinks in it. Overall this cookbook is awesome but for any GG fans this is an absolute necessity.”


Gilmore Girls Phone Case

Maker: Colourcraft Designs

Um, I’ve never considered getting a Gilmore Girls Phone Case, and yet, after finding this Gilmore Girls Phone Case, I NEED one. How cute is this? It’s not too over the top, but any Gilmore Girls fan will know what’s up. Put this at the top of your list of Gilmore Girls gift ideas!


Gilmore Girls Bibs

Maker: Sweets for Reese

So it’s a yes on these Gilmore Girls bibs, right? I just sent them to a friend and apologized for not knowing they existed when her child was born. I missed the boat but you don’t have to!


Hep Alien Tee

Maker: Funny Farmhouse

So… I’m not very good with the details when it comes to TV shows. I rarely know character names, even for shows that I love. As a result, it was only when I was pulling together this post did I learn that Hep Alien is the name of Lane’s band. #themoreyouknow


Where You Lead Soundscape Art

Maker: SoundScape Studio

This is such a unique Gilmore Girls gift idea! This SoundScape assigns a color to each note in Carole King’s song “Where You Lead,” the Gilmore Girls theme song.

Our Little Corner of the World: Music from Gilmore Girls

Turn down the lights, snuggle up with coffee and pop-tarts, turn on the music from Gilmore Girls and pretend you’re back in Stars Hollow.


Chilton Sweatshirt

Maker: KCM Design Studio

Oh, those Chilton days. Was anyone else a little bummed when Tristan left? I know he was totally a jerk, but I think I have a soft spot in my heart for TV jerks. And that graduation speech…Well, thanks to this sweatshirt we can all remember those Chilton days!


Thousand Yellow Daisies Card

Maker: This Delightful Design


This card is perfect for your favorite Gilmore Girls fan, or just someone who really loves daisies. They don’t necessarily have to know it’s an epic line from a television series.

Maker: The 3 Sisters Design Co.

You can take a little bit of Stars Hollow with you wherever you go with this awesome Dragonfly Inn keychain!


Gilmore Girls Coloring Book

Adult coloring books are supposed to be great for stress-relief, which means this one might be necessary to calm the anxiety you may feel after watching the Netflix special and realizing that it could really and truly be the last visit to Stars Hollow ever.


Stars Hollow Candle

Maker: Black Willow Apiary

Reminiscent of “Connecticut small-town charm,” this candle features “cardamom and cinnamon top notes” merged with “chestnut, almond, and clove,” with “base notes of butter and spun sugar.” This sounds amazing.


Gilmore Girls Doormat

Maker: Wander Bound Bizarre

I know a few people who could use this doormat. It’s a good excuse for not answering the door!


Rory Gilmore Reading Challenge Coloring Page

Maker: Veronika Tralo

I thought I’d try to include a couple of Rory’s favorite/most meaningful books on this list, but then I found this coloring page and it seemed like a better option. It includes all of the books featured on the show. You color in each book that you finish.


Where You Lead I Will Follow Sign

Maker: Jazz Inspirations

Whether you’re a fan of the show or not or a fan of the Carole King song or not, this sign is perfect.


Rory’s Boyfriend Ornament

Maker: EM + OW Designs

You get to choose one ornament for your favorite Gilmore Groupie. While it’d look cute on a tree, I think it’d also start out as a fun gift tag! Inside the package should be another fabulous Gilmore Girls gift, of course!

I’m pretty sure I’m in the minority here, but I’m Team Logan all the way.


Gilmore Girls Throw Pillow

Maker: MINNIE and MAUDE

Oh Michel.

I’m in love with these Gilmore Girls salt and pepper shakers! They’re perfect for the fan who has almost everything. Pair them with the tea towel above for a thoughtful Gilmore Girls gift!


Stars Hollow Embroidered Sweatshirt

Maker: Plant Stitch

I kid you not: I fell in love with one of the cities my husband and I considered moving to because it reminded me so much of Stars Hollow, with an adorable town square and incredibly friendly citizens. What I’m saying is that I totally get the love for Stars Hollow!


Gilmore Girls Tote Bag

Gilmore Girls Blanket

Maker: 3 Stitchy Fishy

Here’s a Gilmore Girls gift idea for the true fan – a hand-stitched Gilmore Girls Blanket! How beautiful is this? The price point means this probably isn’t a gift for casual fans, but for the right person, this would be PERFECT. (Please note – this is a custom order and takes 6-8 weeks to deliver. Order early for the holidays!)


Luke’s Diner Coffee Mug

Maker: Detailed By Me

Fall is when you curl up in your Gilmore Girls pajama pants, under a Gilmore Girls blanket, eating Pop Tarts, and drinking coffee out of a Luke’s Diner Coffee Mug. Repeat daily until you smell snow.

Gilmore Girls: Seasons 1-7

Frankly, I’m not sure if DVDs are still an acceptable gift – my kids don’t even know what DVDs are because we’ve never had a DVD player! But for those that like to watch Gilmore Girls old style, the full DVD box set is a great gift idea!


Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life

Do we feel that A Year in the Life is in the spirit of the original Gilmore Girls series? If so, then the Blu-Ray might make a great Gilmore Girls gift idea for someone who has a Blu-Ray player.


No Cell Phones Print from Luke’s

Luke hated cell phones way back when. I can only imagine he’d be less than thrilled at the proliferation of cell phones now and how much time people spend staring at them. This No Cell Phones print is a subtle Gilmore Girls gift idea that’ll thrill some people!


Whatever the reason, we’re sure you’ll find the perfect gift for your favorite Gilmore Girls lover on this list of Gilmore girl gift ideas!
