SHARK BITES – Unique Holiday Gift Ideas
Well… it’s that time of the year when we are all gearing up (some may have started already) for the Christmas season! I know… Halloween hasn’t even arrived. But, tell that to department stores…and they’d beg to differ. It seems the Thanksgiving and Christmas decorations were out before the Halloween candy. LOL! 😀
Sometimes in shopping… we may have ideas of what we want to buy and for whom we want to buy it for. Then… on the other hand… sometimes we are stuck. Plain and simple! We may concoct grandeur ideas of making the holiday gift giving tradition beautiful and easy. Sadly, it just may not work out that way. In fact, I know many people who get anxious around this time of season to find that “perfect” gift for loved ones and friends. Rest assured… I have found some gems I think you may like… actually love…
Let’s start out with the perfect “early Christmas gift”: A “Fashionista Christmas” tree for the Fashionista in your life. If she loves entertaining… then these awesome trees to buy or create, will sure to be a crowd pleaser at any Christmas party— whether in home or office.
- First, I fount this Fashionista Christmas tree at Hammacher.com. Secondly, I found this tree along with many other great designs at Tsmallz blog. After looking into it more, I found several pretty cool gown-like trees on Pinterest. Simplistic at its finest!
- Next up is a crowd favorite I am sure. All kids— young and old— love festive “Personalized Christmas Stockings” to hang over their fireplace or mantle. I found these cute stockings at Gifts.com!
- Christmas seems to bring families closer together, during the holidays. What better way than to welcome them all with this “Personalized Family Welcome Mat?” This great item can be found at Gifts.com
- For a newborn baby’s first Christmas, these “Crib Angels” make great gifts for your little one, or someone about to have a baby. In addition, they can be transformed into “special memento” Christmas ornaments as the years go by. This precious item can be found at Gifts.com.
- For the health conscious gift… this cool “Oil-Free Air Fryer” is a unique way to fry foods without the greasy oily effect! Find it on Amazon.com.
- For teenagers or ol’ skool loved birds…. this ‘Personalized Mixtape Pillow’ makes a great gift for sweethearts… first crushes… or your soul mate. Find this cool A side/B side pillow here.
Now… when it comes to children… they seem to want everything, which puts the pressure on the gift giver. Here are a couple of items that I think we’ll bring pure delight with their uniqueness.
- For the techie lover child… this “MiP Personal Robot” will interact with your child and keep them quite happy. SN: I suggest purchasing rechargeable batteries, as this toy will use up a lot of battery usage.
- For the little girl, who likes fairytales… this “Fairy Triad Dome Terrarium” is great for a child who fascinates, but also is growing into a more playful sophistication.
- For the forever hard working mothers in the world… this beautiful “Mother & Daughter Letter Book Set” is designed to create an instant keepsake. It encourages and then assembles actual correspondence between a mother and her daughter. It’s meant to give insight into each other’s lives, and create a written record of personalities, likes, dislikes, and memorable times had with each other. This is definitely a keepsake both mother and daughter will cherish.
- For the amazing father’s in the world… a “Personalized Brown Leather Story of a Lifetime” book helps any dad chronicle his life. It will be a great way to help him share his knowledge with his children for later in life. The book is set up to ask “dad” certain questions, and will prompt him for the answers, so that he knows what types of things he should write about. This will be very insightful to his children in the future and a most beloved keep sake fore sure.
So, as you can see… there are amazing unique and heartfelt items that you can give to family and friends. Let them know how much they mean to you… in a ‘special way.’
