They say it is better to give then to receive. It is definitely true for adults, as they aim to please the people they love, by finding the right gift for them. But as Christmases come and go, it is getting harder every year, to find the one that will brighten everyone’s smile. Here are a few ideas that should help you be the best Santa, this year.
Spend Time on Details
It is true about most things we accomplish in life: The more we go into details, the better the results will be. Therefore, this Christmas, make sure that you do everything right, by thinking of things others won’t. It starts by acquiring a printed ribbon to place on each present you will offer. By having them made professionally with the message you want to spread out, people will be left speechless. You can have your name on them and a wish for all. It will guarantee that you stand out.
Don’t go for the wrapping paper you find in just about every store. No matter how intricate the print is, it is still just wrapping paper, in the end. Go to a textile store and choose a variety of them, in which you will wrap the gifts. Make sure that the print and colour fit the personality of each people. And if you can sow, make the wrapping textile a present at the same time, by turning them into beautiful scarves, as well.
Look for Information
We often spend too much time thinking about what people want, instead of looking for what they need and would be happy to receive. That is why we should ask the people around them for advice, by asking what they believe is the perfect gift. If you receive all kind of different answers, then you will have to dig deeper and find a way to ask the person directly, without him or her understanding that you are thinking of a Christmas gift. But if the answers you get are similar, or one comes up more often, then you have probably found the right Christmas gift.
Offer Something that will last through Time
Too many gifts end-up going into a closet and spending the rest of their time on earth in there. Others are simply consumed right away and forgotten in a matter of days or weeks. What you really want this Christmas is to give a present that will stay in the person’s life forever. There are many solutions, but here are two that should be taken into consideration.
A Common Gift
You can buy a piece of jewelry for someone and get the same for yourself. It will become a bond in time, that will unite the two of you, for as long as you wear it. For the wildest of our readers, why don’t you offer a matching tattoo?
An Unforgettable Trip
The other solution is to offer a trip, that you will spend together. It has to be something important, though. You can travel on the other side of the world or head to Disney – this one always works, as it will fill you and the person who received the gift, with incredible memories.
