How Do You Give Unique Birthday Gifts?
If you want to give unique birthday gifts to make someone’s special day all about them, it takes planning, imagination, and legwork. Anyone can drive to the mall and buy a bread machine. But come on. Is that what mom really wants? And is that new sweater really special enough for your sister? Will your aunt remember the box of candies when they’re gone? Know the person you’re shopping for. This is probably the hardest but most important step. When you really know a person, the every day things they discuss offer insight into what they like and what they want. Be an active listener. When someone smiles and says, “Oh, remember these?” when they pick up a set of dish towels with the days of the week embroidered on them, they are having a fond memory. This might just be a great unique birthday gift idea. Find out what the gift recipient really likes. Buy one-of-a-kind gifts that are personalized just for them. Or at least it appears that the personalization was done just for them. Examples
