Christmas is well on its way, and if you haven’t yet, it is time to get thinking about the gifts to get your loved ones. With a year such as 2020, when you have been missing your loved ones and unable to see them as much as you had liked, it is likely you want to get them something special for Christmas. Gift experiences are less likely this year as there is still so much uncertainty about when we can get out and about again, but the ordinary gift set just won’t cut it. This is why it is a good idea to look into something personal that your loved one can keep forever and always think of you when they see it. Here are three personalised Christmas gift ideas that your friends and family are guaranteed to love.
Everyone loves to receive jewellery, and if you personalise it, it is that bit more special. You could get your other half a watch or bracelet that has their name or your anniversary date engraved on it, or you could get something for your parents that means a lot to them. Why not engrave a bracelet with your Mum’s birthday or you or your sibling’s names? Most pieces of jewellery out there can be engraved, so just consider what you want it to say and where you want it to go. The recipient is sure to be absolutely thrilled!
Art is another great personalised gift to give to a loved one this Christmas. You could get a photograph of your family in a nice frame, or get a local artist to commission a photo that they turn into a painting or drawing. As well as being a perfect present, it is also a great way to support local businesses. If photos or drawings aren’t your thing, there are many other pieces of art you could try. Why not opt for a picture of a place that means a lot to someone? It could be somewhere they used to live, where they got engaged, or something they have always wanted to go.
Another great personalised gift idea is to give them something with their birthstone in it. There are many birthstone guide ideas that can be found online that can give you information about your loved one’s stone and what it means – you could even print this out with their gift. From getting the stone inputted to a piece of jewellery, a trinket box, or a hair accessory, it is sure to be something that they will treasure forever. It is something that means something to them because of both the stone and the fact that you gave it to them. It is guaranteed to be a gift they will treasure for years to come.
These are just a few personalised Christmas gift ideas to give to your family and friends in 2020. Remember that when you are looking for personalised gifts it doesn’t matter about the cost, the most important thing is that it is something that means a lot to the recipient. Do your research and find something you think they will use, love and treasure for years to come.
