Is there anything worse than finding out a gift you gave someone for Christmas was later returned – or worse, kept but never used? Exchanging presents is often a very personal and time consuming labor of love.
However, our kind intentions are never guaranteed to transfer to the recipient for various reasons – unbeknownst to us they already have the item we gifted or maybe what we chose for them just isn’t quite their taste.
Not to worry. There are so many items to choose from these days, giving a gift from the heart that shows you care just takes a little thought and possibly some adventurous searching. Let’s look at a few examples of quality Christmas gifts available that show you care that hopefully arrive at a no-return-policy-needed holiday season.
How wonderful would it be to give a gift to someone you care about that actually gives you peace of mind? What if the recipient would also be thrilled with the present and proudly display it in their home?
While certainly not a routine item, the Safe-T fire extinguisher from Weston Table actually achieves both these goals. And with so many designs to choose from – a bottle of bourbon, man’s best friend, national parks, even how to shuck an oyster – you can choose a fire extinguisher to mirror the recipient’s personality and interests.
Safety in style is something you can give someone feeling fairly confident they will not only find your choice an interesting one, but a kind one, and one that will probably put a smile on their face whenever they see it.
Often, folks forgo the little luxuries in life that make them decadently happy because of frugality or simply not believing they deserve such treats. You can show them that they have more than earned something special by gifting it to them.
Since the way to a person’s heart is through their stomach, giving them an oyster starter pack from Hama Hama Oyster Company will not only let them know that you feel they are worth the splurge but also give them the gift of sustenance and enjoyment at the same time. It feels wonderful to give someone that thing they wouldn’t get for themselves and even better when that gift is something that literally nourishes them.
Not to mention, they will have a ball learning to shuck their oysters with all the necessary tools and guidance that is provided along with the starter pack. Tell them you care by treating their tummy and showing them they should be spoiled occasionally.
Those who appreciate life’s finer things consider a bourbon gift that indulges their taste buds. A bottle of small-batch bourbon, aged to perfection, or even a curated bourbon-tasting set can be the ideal present. The rich, complex flavors of bourbon are a delight for the senses and an invitation to savor the moment. You can pair it with high-quality whiskey glasses or bourbon-infused chocolates to create a truly luxurious experience. By gifting bourbon, you’re acknowledging their appreciation for the finer aspects of life and providing them with the opportunity to unwind and relish the warmth and depth of this exceptional spirit. It’s a gesture that embodies thoughtfulness and an understanding of the art of sipping and savoring.
What could be more caring than actually giving them the gift of warmth and friendship?
The wonderful stuffed animals, like the large cuddly goose from Senger Naturwelt, are crafted with such care and thoughtfulness and possess both of the properties as mentioned earlier. Having been born from the collaboration between a tailor apprentice husband and a children’s books seller wife, these plush buddies are not only adorable but durable and made with environmentally conscious methods.
They also have a secret ability – since their tummies are filled with pouches of natural materials like spelt chaff, they can be put in the microwave to give an extra layer of warmth to your cuddly friend. And don’t think this fuzzy pal is only for the youngsters on your gift list. The quality and eco-friendly construction of these creatures will surely appeal to the bigger kids as well.
Not to mention that the heating feature will soothe body aches that those of us with a few more years under our belt can be susceptible to. Sometimes putting a smile on someone’s face – young or old – is the most caring gift you can give them.
How’s that for a diverse assortment of present possibilities that are one, almost guaranteed to be something that they don’t already own, and two, indicative of how much you care about the recipient?
Spending a little more thought and engaging in a little creative thinking can yield some wonderful results. We wish we could see the look on their face as your special someone opens up any of these gifts.
They will no doubt immediately recognize the care you put into its selection and how much it aligns with their personality and wants.
You can feel not only relieved that you found something that won’t end up in the back of a closet or on the return desk but also proud that you have been able to give the gift of joy to someone as well.
