Whether you're looking for one special present or building an entire Maryland gift basket, here are 15 ideas to get you started.

Few things say Maryland quite like the Chesapeake Bay blue crab.

For someone who already owns plenty of Maryland T-shirts, try a crab baseball cap instead.
The embroidered crab design makes it unmistakably Maryland, while an adjustable baseball cap is easy to wear throughout much of the year.

Christmas Gifts for Someone Who Moved Away From Maryland
For someone who no longer lives in Maryland, the best gift is often something that reminds them of home.
A Maryland crab shirt can bring back memories of summer crab feasts. A Maryland flag ornament can come out every Christmas. An Old Bay gift can remind them of Maryland food traditions. Even a small crab keychain can be something they carry every day.
That's what makes Maryland gifts different from generic holiday presents — they have a connection to a place and the memories that go with it.
