CEBU, Philippines – Oftentimes gift-buyers get confused on what gifts to pick, especially if they are unsure of the personalities and preferences of their intended recipients. Matching a gift to its recipient can really be a burden.
Here's a list of choices on how to fit your gift to the personality of your recipient:
For Males:
Most males are active and are likely to prefer portable barbeque equipment, travel gear, sports gear (like rubber shoes and bag). For the other guys who prefer the chewable and sweet things in life, a basket of cookies, candies, and other such treats may be considered.
For husbands and fathers, good gift ideas would include wallets, key chains, and personalized mugs. Or, for something more romantic, a custom-written wall canvass and engraved commitment bands are unique options, surely to make the receiving man feel the giver's affection.
For Females:
Many women - teenagers and adults alike - believe that thoughts do count in giving gifts. Sensitive as they are, most women love to have some emotional touch on the presents they receive. So, gift-givers may choose either jewelry, travel accessory, sports bag or custom-printed home décors like pillows, throws, and prints with personal messages, monograms or their own photos.
For wives and mothers, including the gift-giver's personal stamp on the gift can evoke a warm feeling. Birthstone pieces, engraved charm bracelets, necklaces, and pendants are among the nice choices for gifts. These are even nice to give to oneself, by the woman who knows she deserves it.
For Children:
Despite their young age, children love to own things, too, to have items to call "their own." Stitching the kids' names on backpacks, beach towels, and bean bags and giving these to them as gifts is a nice idea. It can make the gifts really special to the children these are given to. Or, mini furniture like play table or rocking chair, toy cars, dolls, keepsake boxes, and cute apparels also make interesting gifts for children.
If time and talent allow, parents may make a personalized storybook where their children are the main characters. Nothing will delight the kids in quite the same way.
For the kids' sweet tooth, a basket of candies, chocolates, lollipops, and the like can really make it a merry Christmas for the little ones.
It is really such a challenge trying to pick the right gift for the right recipient. But the effort exerted makes the gift more meaningful in the end. The value of a gift is not only monetary - but also in terms of the giver's desire to really the recipient.
