Forgot to Grab a Gift? We’ve Got You Covered

Life moves fast, and it’s easy for birthdays, anniversaries, and other special occasions to sneak up on us. If you're scrambling for a last-minute gift idea, you’re not alone — and we’ve got your back.

What to Do If You Forgot a Gift

Whether it's a birthday, memorial, or "just because" moment, a thoughtful gift doesn’t have to be rushed or panicked. Here’s what you can do when you forgot to buy a gift — and still want to make someone feel loved and remembered:

  1. Order a meaningful gift today
    Choose something with heart, like a handcrafted ornament or Mother's Angels® design from Forged Flare®. These beautiful keepsakes are inspired by stained glass and handcrafted in Texas — designed to brighten any space and stir cherished memories.
  2. Let them know it’s on the way
    We’ve created a FREE printable download you can use right now. It says, “Your gift is on its way!” — a simple, elegant way to bridge the gap between now and when the package arrives.

  3. Print it on 8.5"x11" paper at home (in color or black and white)
  4. Or email it directly to your recipient
    Get the FREE printable!
  5. Add a personal note
    Take a few minutes to write something heartfelt. A few sincere words can turn even a delayed gift into a meaningful gesture that’s remembered long after the wrapping paper is gone.

Thoughtful Gifts Don’t Have to Be on Time — They Just Have to Be You

Ordering late doesn’t mean your gift won’t feel special. In fact, slowing down and adding a personal touch — like our free printable and a note — can make your gift feel even more intentional.

So if you’re searching for what to do if you forgot to buy a gift or need creative last-minute gift ideas, know this: a meaningful moment is still possible. Let us help you make it happen.
