The best sleep gifts to give on a budget

What products can help you sleep better? The following gift ideas are great ways to help enhance your loved one’s sleep experience without breaking the bank.

1. Eye mask

Not only does an eye mask make you look and feel fancy before bedtime, they are proven to help you get a better night’s sleep! An eye mask can block out excessive light, allowing you to fall into a deeper sleep faster with fewer disruptions throughout the night. Consistent darkness promotes restorative REM sleep, making you feel refreshed and rejuvenated the next morning.  

Eye masks come in various shapes, colors, patterns, and sizes so you can find the perfect fit for your friend or family member! As experts, we recommend finding a mask with a protruding or goggle-like design that doesn’t apply any pressure to the eyelids for maximum comfort.

2. Calming scented candle

If you have someone in your life who needs a little help unwinding, a calming scented candle would be a perfect gift. Lighting a candle can become part of their nightly routine as a sign that it’s time to relax. 

The candle can be used for aromatherapy as they take a relaxing hot bath or they can simply light it in their bedroom to create a warmer, cozier environment. Look for scents like lavender, chamomile, and jasmine that promote relaxation. 

3. Weighted blanket

For those who love to cuddle and be cuddled. A weighted blanket can be a very thoughtful gift, especially for anyone who suffers from anxiety and has trouble falling asleep. This unique product is designed to imitate the feeling of getting a bear hug and can provide the person with feelings of comfort and security as they drift off to sleep. 

Weighted blankets come in an assortment of different colors, patterns, and textures, allowing you to tailor your present to the person you’re gifting the blanket to!

4. Comfy pajama set

We all want to be as cozy as possible when we go to sleep, but some people also like to sleep in style! A comfy pajama set is a great gift for the stylish sleeper who wants sleep attire that goes a step above an old t-shirt. 

With the holidays coming up, you can go all out and find fun, festive patterns and even get them multiple sets so they can match with their family or their pets! Not many things can get someone so excited to go to sleep quite like a cute and cozy PJ set. 

5. Mattress protector 

While this option may not be the sexiest gift ever, this is a gift that the recipient will thank you for in the long run. Mattress protectors help to shield mattresses from harmful hazards such as stains, liquids and fluids, pet dander, dust, mold, and more! The barrier a mattress protector provides can extend the lifespan of a mattress, allowing your loved one to keep their mattress for longer! 

If they invested in a quality mattress from Texas Mattress Makers, it’s important to protect it. Although the packaging may be a little large for an actual stocking, you can still pass these off as stocking stuffers! We sell our quality mattress protectors both online and in our showrooms.

Luxury gifts for sleep lovers

What are the best items to improve your sleep? What is a good gift for fatigue? Outside of a quality mattress, the following ideas for gifts for sleep lovers can transform a person’s sleep quality and sleeping environment! These gifts take enhancing the sleep experience a step further by providing a more luxurious effect. If you know someone who loves getting a good night’s sleep, these gifts will be game-changers. 

1. Cooling pillow

Everyone deserves to rest their head on a pillow that is comfortable, supportive, breathable, and durable…but does such a pillow even exist? You bet it does. If you’re looking for the perfect pillow to give as a gift this year, we recommend The Cooling Pillow. This low-profile, hypoallergenic, and customizable pillow allows you to adjust your comfort level while keeping you cool and supported all night long. 

Say goodbye to neck pain, stuffiness, and frequent headaches with a top-quality pillow that your friends and family will adore. Sleep tight!

2. Silk pillowcase

Now that you’ve provided a perfect pillow for them to sleep on, why not upgrade their pillowcase game? Pillowcases, just like pillows themselves, are an often neglected mattress accessory. You should be conscious of what materials your pillowcase is made of and how certain fabric types can elevate your sleep experience. 

Silk pillowcases are great gifts for those who are passionate about the health of their skin and their hair. Because silk absorbs less moisture than traditional pillowcase fabrics like cotton, the material can help the skin and the hair feel less dry in the morning all while helping the skin retain any products that were applied before bedtime.

3. Noise machine 

A noise machine can be beneficial in helping those in your life who struggle with sleep to get some much-needed shuteye. If someone in your life lives in a noisy part of town or has a partner who snores like a chainsaw, a noise machine can help to cancel out any unwanted noise and help them fall peacefully asleep. 

White noise and pink noise specifically are known to effectively relax the brain, creating a soothing soundtrack for sleeping throughout the night. This is a great gift idea for anyone in your life who could use more restorative rest.

4. Adjustable mattress base

If you really want to find the cream of the crop of luxury gifts for sleep lovers, we have just the idea for you: adjustable bases. An adjustable mattress base perfectly combines practicality and luxury for their bedroom. The ability to customize the positioning of the mattress can help any sleep lover rest as comfortably as possible while the versatility allows their bed to become multi-purpose. 

Is an adjustable base worth it? Absolutely! If they love reading, watching TV, or lounging in bed, an adjustable base can enhance relaxation to new heights. If they happen to have any medical conditions that make sleeping more difficult, the base’s adjustable features can help them find positioning that is just right to eliminate pain or discomfort. 

Giving an adjustable base as a gift this season may make you the best gift giver of all time. Just be sure that their mattress is compatible with an adjustable base beforehand (hint: if they buy their mattress from Texas Mattress Makers, it can be adjustable-friendly)!
