It can be incredibly difficult knowing exactly what you should buy your
loved ones during the holiday season. Year upon year you will try to outdo
yourself and now, as Christmas approaches, people all over the world are left
scratching their heads as they ponder over what they should be getting their
closest friends and family. Well, if you are struggling then look no further.
This article is dedicated to giving the gift of creativity, which really lets
somebody know that you care about them. Here are some of the best ideas if you
are hoping to get someone something that allows you to show your creative side.
A Song
This isn’t what it sounds like. The suggestion here is not to merely
learn three chords on guitar and sing a song that proclaims your love to
somebody. No, instead, this option refers specifically to the site Songly. On here,
you are able to order a personalised song by sending details of memories of a
specific person to the team at Songly who will then put it into a
professionally written, recorded and mastered track. If you have a loved one
that is passionate about music, then this is truly one of the greatest gift
that you could get them.
Homemade Candles
Who doesn’t love a good candle? These are normally go-to gifts anyway;
however, in this instance you are able to make them a lot more personal by
creating them yourself. You know better than anyone the kind of scents that
your friends and family like and as such you can put these into the candle that
you end up making. There are lots of
guides available on how to make a candle but the bare bones
instructions are to:
-
Measure the wax
-
Melt the wax that you have measured out
-
Add the necessary fragrance
oils
-
Attach the wick
-
Pour the wax
-
Secure the wick
-
Add more wax
-
Cut the wick
Wood Tile Letter Coasters
These are the perfect present for any of those loved ones who get
stressed out at the idea of water rings forming around one of their favorite
coffee tables. They will likely be using a coaster in every instance of their
day-to-day lives and as such, getting them their very own personalized one is a
great idea.
They are incredibly easy to make as all you are going to need are some
cork squares, small wood tiles, alphabet stickers, glue and clear glaze. Then,
with a little bit of easy DIY you can put these together in a free afternoon
that you have. You can have them spell out generic words that refer to drinking
or make them more personal with the person’s name that they are for or a
message that means something to the two of you.
Conclusion
Buying presents gets harder every year so to really give yourself the
edge this time around, why don’t you create something a lot more personal?
There are lots of different options available to you but if you are struggling
with inspiration then the above is a good place to start.
