[Gifts have been delivered in the early morning hours, when most people are still asleep. Draco has left the brightly wrapped packages outside of the appropriate doors. Note: if Draco will see your pup on the 25th, that pup will get their gift in-thread. Unless you're Kurt.]
Meg Giry - A collection of four moving photographs in simple frames, each showing similar scenes of the village lake in summer, fall, winter, and spring.
I found these photographs in a box my son had tossed them in. I thought you might enjoy the magic in them.

Lily Evans - A large leather
photo album with an ornate cover. There is already a picture of a smirking Draco inside.
To to capture mementos of the good days and good friends. Time goes by quicker than most people think, and not everyone stays forever.
Happy Christmas,
-DM
Vianne and Anouk Rocher - A
book about spices for Vianne, and a brand new copy of The Tales of Beedle the Bard for Anouk.
Vianne - I figured you would know much of what this book has to tell, but I thought it may serve as inspiration for a fabulous new twist on something.
Anouk - This is a traditional story book for wizarding children. I thought you might enjoy the stories as much as I did as a child.
Happy Christmas to the both of you,

Kurt Hummel - A bottle of top-shelf vodka (wrapped up in a box, so the obvious shape isn't noticeable to passersby), a vial of hangover cure, and a large,
antique mirror. The mirror is charmed to comment on the appearance of the person viewing themselves. The card attached to the wrapped mirror says READ ME FIRST! in big letters.
The vodka should be enough to satisfy your friend's party fee. If not, she's a bigger alcohol snob than I am. The vial is hangover cure; I suggest you keep that for yourself. I'll bring more of both to the party.
As for your proper gift, you may need someone to help you carry it into your room. Also, don't freak out if it starts talking to you after you open it. It's supposed to do that.
See you later,

Annatar - A young
Chinese Juniper bonsai tree, a proper set of bonsai care tools, and two books on the subject:
Bonsai - The Art of Living Sculpture, and
The Bonsai Handbook.
This seemed right up your alley. Ms. Ivy at the greenhouse can help you if you have questions.

Robert St. Clair - A
rather risque painting of Draco. ( Similar to the link, but sans the Dark Mark, of course.)
I thought that this would be a great addition to The Sin's walls. :)
Happy Christmas, Boss

Faramir - A large gift basket full of citrus fruit and various sorts of nuts.
I remembered that you like simple things - I suppose I went slightly overboard. Someone once told me that oranges were a a fantastic treat they looked forward to on Christmas.Seemed like something you might enjoy.
