Graduation gifts to give to senior club members and teammates: A roundup of crowd-pleasing presents (1–10)
Personalized ballpoint pen
Ballpoint pens are useful whether you’re moving on to higher education or starting a job, so they make perfect gifts! And if they have the recipient’s name on them, they’ll be even more appreciated, don’t you think? You can easily make one by using a customizable pen sold at 100-yen shops and simply inserting or sticking on a name label.
Besides adding a name, you can pour in herbarium oil with tiny flowers, or add small beads to create a cute pen.
It’s also recommended to shrink and insert a favorite photo! It will become a wonderful gift that brings back memories of club activities every time it’s used.
sweets
When celebrating a graduation, choosing sweets is a popular option, isn’t it? You can mix and match different treats, or splurge a little on something fancy.
It’s perfectly fine to give them as you bought or made them, but since it’s a special gift, why not put some effort into the wrapping too? For example, you could attach extra candies around a box of sweets, or cleverly combine treats to make a bag made entirely of candy.
It might also be fun to create a jack-in-the-box-style surprise where the sweets pop out when opened.
Try giving your gift with not only celebratory feelings but also a little element of surprise!
Original T-shirt
Did you know you can make your own original T-shirts at UNIQLO? You can choose a design on a tablet in the store, but if you want something completely original, it’s best to create your design in advance! Download the dedicated app, decide on the layout, place your order, and after a short wait you can pick up your finished T-shirt right there.
You can add a group name or a password, or include a message and the names of your seniors.
It could be a memorable gift—something you probably won’t receive once you’re out in the working world.

message board (with group messages), group card, or collective autograph
Even a classic group message can be turned into a delightful, surprising gift with a bit of creativity! Paste a favorite photo onto a puzzle board, then write messages on each of the blank pieces and fit them in to create a puzzle-like group message full of gratitude.
Another idea is to decorate a corkboard as if it were an X or LINE screen, sprinkling it with photos and messages.
You could also design it like a playlist to recreate memories of songs you shared.
Try making a special group message that brings back the days you spent together.
Original tumbler
A great gift to recommend for seniors graduating from your club is a custom tumbler.
Slip your favorite illustrations or photos into the clear sleeve on the tumbler’s surface.
It’s also nice to include photos that capture moments you shared with them and give it as a present.
Since the insert can be easily swapped out, you could also give them a few extra photos to change up the look.
It’s a gift that works both as a practical tumbler for drinks and as a keepsake for treasured memories.
Personalized name mug
Since many people use mugs every day, they’re perfect as a graduation gift! How about giving a personalized mug with the recipient’s name on it? These days, there are plenty of services that let you print your favorite design on a mug or order one with a custom design, so try making a stylish, memorable mug with a name on it.
Matching name-engraved mugs for the club members you spent so much time with will surely become treasures for a lifetime.
Photo frame
Graduation is a milestone moment when, with memories held close, you spread your wings toward a new place.
Give a beautiful photo frame as a gift to encourage displaying photos and to prompt them to look back on those memories whenever they see it.
If you choose a photo frame that folds like a book, you can even add a design to the cover.
It might be fun to give it a diploma-like design to celebrate graduation.
You can gift just the frame and let them choose the photos themselves, or include memorable photos as part of the present.
A format that holds both photos and a message card is also recommended, as it lets you convey your gratitude at the same time.
