A conferring is the day years of work finally pay off, and a good graduation gift marks it with something they will keep. Below is our full range of gifts for graduates: the Personalised Graduation Teddy Bear with their name and your message on a wooden plaque; the Graduation Cap Word Cloud Box Frame, filled with the words that sum up their course; the Congrats Graduation Personalised Mug and chocolate bar carrying their name and graduation year; engraved pens for the first job; and the Any Name Congrats crystal flute with a snipe of champagne or prosecco for the toast.

Choosing a graduation gift
Start with what will last. A keepsake is the classic graduation present: the Personalised Graduation Teddy Bear from Keel Toys, with the graduate’s name and your message on its wooden plaque, or the larger Congratulations on Your Graduation plaque teddy; the Graduation Cap Word Cloud Box Frame, a 25 x 25 cm print in a whitewash wooden frame made from the words you choose; or the Congrats Graduation Personalised Mug with their name, graduation year and a message. For someone heading into their first job, an engraved pen is a practical gift they will use every day — the Personalised Ballpoint Pen comes in silver with a black or navy body, engraved with their name or a message. For the celebration itself, raise a glass with the Any Name Congrats crystal flute and a snipe of champagne or prosecco in a satin-lined gift box, or a Name & Initials personalised whiskey glass. And for the sweet tooth, the Congrats Graduation Personalised Chocolate Bar in Irish milk chocolate, the Take Some Timeout chocolate box with twelve bars and your own message, or the Butlers Irish Chocolate Collection.
What are good graduation gifts for her and for him?
For her: fresh flowers such as the Parisian Mixed Roses or Blazing Glory bouquets on the day, the Graduation Cap Word Cloud Box Frame, or the Personalised Graduation Teddy Bear. For him: an engraved pen set, a Name & Initials personalised whiskey glass, or the Congrats Graduation Personalised Mug. For a daughter or son finishing college, a personalised keepsake with their name and the graduation year is the gift most likely to stay on the shelf for good.
Can a graduation gift be personalised?
Yes. Most of the range carries the graduate’s name and your own message, the mug and chocolate bar add the graduation year, and the word cloud frame uses exactly the words you type in — the course, the college or a line only they will get. Personalised pieces are made to order, so double-check names and spellings before you order.
How will the gift be presented?
Gifts sent straight to the recipient always arrive well-presented — exactly how depends on the gift. A hamper typically arrives in its own gift box, while other items are usually wrapped in tissue with a gift bag and ribbon, though presentation varies by item. You can also include a personalised card with your own message, added at checkout.
When should I order a graduation gift?
Many Irish conferring ceremonies take place between October and December, so order a little ahead of the day. Personalised pieces are made to order, so allow a few extra working days for printing or engraving on top of normal delivery; ready-made gifts such as chocolates and flowers are a safe choice closer to the day. Orders ship daily from Dublin, with delivery across Ireland, the UK and Europe; fresh flowers, fresh fruit hampers and balloons are delivered within Ireland only, and gifts containing alcohol to Ireland and the UK only.
Explore our full range of graduation gifts including personalised graduation teddy bears, word cloud frames, mugs and chocolate bars, engraved pens, crystal flutes, chocolates and fresh flowers — gifts for graduates of university, college and school, delivered across Ireland.
