A Book
While many people think that reading has gone out of fashion, there are still many bookworms who would love nothing more to get that new release that they have been eyeing.
Gifting someone a book is a great idea because it requires very little effort, but it shows that you put some thought into it, especially if you write a note in the front of the book.
If someone isn’t an avid reader, don’t be dismayed! You can still buy them a book that they will love. For someone who likes fixing things, a DIY manual may be the perfect gift. If someone is a devoted Christian, you could consider looking at a Christian book store for their gift.
A Voucher
Many people think that giving vouchers or cash is a way of copping out of a present, but more and more people are preferring this method of gift-giving.
After all, almost all of us would prefer the opportunity to pick out something we’ll actually love and use. You can still make vouchers personal by writing a heartfelt note or card. If your budget is tight, you can even use these coupons as a gift for your significant other.
An experience
After these past few months, we can all agree that memories are what really count, more than any material item. So, if you don’t know what to get someone because they have everything already, gifting them an experience may be a wonderful idea.
Once again, you can tailor it to their needs. If they enjoy cooking, gift them a cooking class. If they are into arts and crafts, the possibilities are endless – sign them up for an art lesson, or buy them an at-home art kit. For the adrenaline junkie in your life, try arranging one of these activities for them.
Something personalized
Anything that is personalized will automatically mean more to someone than a generic item. The great thing about personalized items is that they don’t have to cost a fortune to be sentimental.
Something as small as a keyring will melt someone’s heart if it has a thoughtful message on it. A pocket watch with a special message engraved also makes a great gift that you can pass along from generation to generation. Another benefit of personalized items is that the possibilities are endless!
You can get a personalized version of nearly anything if you look hard enough. You can click here to see some custom jewelry for Christmas.
