15 Pageant Contestant and Titleholder Gift Ideas Share on Social Media

So you’ve created a pageant budget and up until this point you’ve been doing an awesome job about sticking to it!  What you probably didn’t remember to budget into your pageant funds are contestant gifts and a gift for the outgoing queen. Is that really a thing? Yeah, it is! 

Some pageants make this mandatory; but even if it’s not mandatory, it’s always a nice gesture!

We’ve included some awesome ideas, like a compact mirror or a little note with a treat, to help you get started.

Pageant Contestant Gift Ideas

These gifts don’t have to be too elaborate considering you probably have to buy a number of them. The best thing to do would be to purchase gifts that you can buy in bulk or ones that are easy to make so that you’re not having to spend too much time or money on it. 

The idea of giving gifts to your fellow contestants is supposed to be fun and easy, not something that you should be stressing about whether or not you can afford it!
