There are many things to love about Christmas. Shopping is not one of them. After all, there’s no bigger hassle than buying gifts – just too many things can go wrong; the scariest being that what you’ve bought isn’t appreciated.
While you can’t do much about that, you can always, always play it safe with MUJI. Besides being the most popular brand at Secret Santas, the Japanese retail company has an enormous list of gift sets for shoppers to choose from – 87 in total, and here’s what you should look out for:
Garments
Plenty of people love to clear their annual leave by visiting colder countries. So why not help them enjoy their wintery escapes in comfort?
Stationery
MUJI is all about functionality and style, and nothing epitomises that better than the company’s range of cute stationery sets that’ll come in handy for organising the mess on your colleague’s desk.
Travel
We all know someone who’s been bitten by the travel bug. And they’ll appreciate nothing more than you helping them stock up on essentials like neck cushions, luggage bags, and skincare – especially skincare.
Household
Home is where the heart is, so it kind of makes sense to spruce up the household for Christmas. From comfy Beads Sofa Carrier Bags to an adorable Panda cushion, and Aroma Diffusers to Bedlinen, you can do exactly just that with MUJI’s gorgeous home sets.
Kitchen
If you’re a sucker for traditionally designed tableware, or know someone who is, than you won’t go wrong with MUJI’s Hasami Ware Series.
Hampers
Hampers are great if you can’t decide what to buy, and MUJI has seven different ones to choose from, with a wide range of goodies inside, from cutlery to snacks.
IDÉE
At the end of the day, nothing beats quality. And you’ll find that in abundance at MUJI’s IDÉE sector, which features limited edition Christmas ornaments and collections from renowned product designers, including ceramic cups and festive figurines.
Enjoying the Festive Spirit at MUJI
More than just a retail playground, the space at MUJI gives you an all-round shopping experience, especially at the Plaza Singapura store. There’s Café&Meal MUJI to eat delicious food at, while Open MUJI – an event space, is running exhibitions all the way till Dec 27.
First up at Open MUJI is a “Homemade Christmas – Hexen House Town”, an intricate display that features 10 Hexen Houses, all made from MUJI biscuits and candies, forming landmarks like MBS and the Merlion, alongside a wintery wonderland, and a moving toy train.
And if that doesn’t invoke the ol’ yuletide spirit in you, then the wall mural at Open MUJI will. Hand painted with the theme of “Christmas in the Woods”, this beautiful piece of artwork is an initiative in support of the Children’s Cancer Foundation, and is meant to raise awareness of childhood cancer.

Happy Christmas – Cylinder Trees
There’ll also be three cylindrical Christmas trees scattered around MUJI’s Plaza Singapura store. Meticulously hand-painted by students from Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, each cylinder – which, fun fact: belongs to Found MUJI as a selling item called “Pulp Storage”, tells a unique Christmas tale, and is the perfect embodiment of MUJI’s push for creativity. Check out the designs below:
Whatever the case may be; you’ll find plenty of things to do at MUJI, and that includes making your Christmas shopping that much less painful.
