Visionary, non-conformist and amazing at hosting casual parties you definitely want an invitation to, your Aquarius friends are among the most fun to shop for thanks to their love of all things unique and interesting. Here are our best gift ideas for the Aquarius in your life.
Symbolized by the water bearer, you’d think that an Aquarius would be all about the H₂O, but they are actually the last air sign of the zodiac. This just means you have even more gifting options! Some cute (and super easy to care for) air plants are perfect for these unconventional folks, while an air purifier totally embraces their love of technology. To honor their water bearer side, a LANEIGE Water Sleeping Mask, handcrafted-in-the-USA bath bombs or self-cleaning LARQ water bottle will ensure that they apply the same nurturing care to themselves as they do others.
Innovation and an Aquarius go together like a cake and a birthday party. This Bluetooth speaker from Bose, Bluetooth beanie with pompom and oh-so-useful Bluetooth tracker are bound to be adored by this free-spirited sign (after all, no free-spirit wants a lot of wires to get tangled up in). With all of the good deeds they perform, a restful night’s sleep is essential to an Aquarius, so this Hatch sleep system is perfect for them. Also perfect—a rechargeable hand warmer to help them get through the coldest winter days.
“Basic” simply isn’t a word in an Aquarius’ vocabulary. Decor to fashion to hobbies, they thrive on expressing themselves in non-traditional ways. A bold art print, modern glass pitcher, clock from Sharper Image, whimsical planter, celestial photo display, ceramic arm vase or wooden LED lamp will likely be right at home with the rest of their decor. Of course, an Aquarius isn’t one to just sit around the house. A book on the world’s most fascinating places can inspire their next adventure, while a holographic purse ups the pizzazz factor of their going-out looks. And if you haven’t noticed, Aquariuses aren’t always the best at getting their feelings out, so this beautifully designed notebook might be just what they need.
Remember how we said an Aquarius loves to host a casual party? While they probably already have some entertaining essentials, they can never have too many charcuterie boards or cocktail recipe books (or carafes and unique glassware to go along with said cocktails). A sassy doormat to welcome their guests and a wildly-imaginative drawing game to keep everyone entertained are other ways to encourage them to keep on throwing memorable get-togethers.
The humanitarians of the zodiac, Aquariuses do their best to help others and make positive changes in the world. Luckily, there are tons of gifts out there from brands that give back to good causes and/or practice ethical production processes. A few to consider:
Each sign has its own “power color,” and unsurprisingly, blue is it for Aquarius. Cobalt blue eyeliner from Urban Decay, Essie nail polish, a blue agate candle holder, a customizable passport holder or even indigo-blue tea are blue-tiful gifts to give. Yes, blue tea is a real thing.
While it’s easy to spot an Aquarius due to their individuality and creativity, displaying a little extra Aquarian pride never hurts! A wine/coffee tumbler, cute pair of socks, neon wall sign, sandalwood and jasmine soy candle or a gorgeous book all about being an Aquarius is sure to make them smile.
Ready to surprise your Aquarius friend with a thoughtful and amazing gift? Excellent! But regardless of the gift you choose, don’t forget to actually tell them how much you value them. Send them a card for their special day!

Volunteers can choose their preferred time slots, sign up for tasks or indicate what they'll bring to the event.

Creating a signup sheet has never been easier than with Evite! Here’s how to create a sheet that’s sure to make your event an absolute success:
When it comes to signup sheet information, there are some essentials to include regardless of what you’re organizing:
When adding your slot information, clearly define what people are signing up for, especially for a what-to-bring list or role assignments. If you want someone to bring healthy snacks for kids to enjoy after a game, specify that. You want your volunteers to feel confident in what they’re bringing and to make it easy for them to know what’s expected of them. It will save them time and stress (and you, too!). That being said, if you make your ask too specific (for example, asking for a hard-to-source item or something expensive), you may not end up with a volunteer for it. So be clear about what you expect, but also be reasonable!
Aside from providing the basic signup information, you can also add optional descriptions to both your entire signup sheet and individual slots. While not required, they can help guide your volunteers further and provide more information. You can add information about allergies, preferences and general info about the event. You can also add a wish list to make it easier for your volunteers to bring exactly what you need!
Signup sheet templates offer a ton of advantages for both organizers and volunteers and with Evite SignUp Sheets, you'll enjoy even more benefits than other digital and paper signup sheets! Some benefits our signup sheet templates offer include:
With Evite SignUp Sheets, you can enjoy organizing and coordinating all your events with ease. Signup sheets streamline the signup process for everyone involved, ensuring that everything will go to plan on the day of your event while saving you precious time in the process.
