Do you want to surprise your loved one with a gift they won’t expect? Thinking outside the box can be tricky, so here are some unique and fun gift ideas that will bring a smile to their face.
Concert Tickets
For the music lover, why not get them tickets to an upcoming concert or show? Or if you don’t have time to plan ahead, give them a gift card for their favorite streaming service. They’ll be able to pick out the music or show of their choice, and always be reminded of your thoughtfulness when they’re enjoying it!
Experience Gifts
Experience gifts are one-of-a-kind gifts that create memories and stories to tell. Take them on a hot air balloon ride, a cooking class, or a wine tasting. Or if you’re looking for something more low-key, buy them tickets to the theater or an art gallery opening night.
Subscription Boxes
If they already have everything they need at home and don’t want anything else cluttering up their space, subscription boxes are an excellent option. A subscription box will send them monthly goodies they love, from snacks to clothes to gadgets. If they’re a foodie or cocktail enthusiast, sending them a seasonally rotated craft beer or wine subscription is sure to bring them joy all year round.
Lordship or Ladyship
What is a lordship? A lordship is a certificate that legally grants the recipient a title of nobility. This gift idea is perfect for those who are always joking and love to be the center of attention. The certificate can come with a framed document with their new title, as well as additional benefits such as a piece of land in Scotland.
Personalized Gifts
Personalized gifts are a superb way to show your loved one how much you appreciate them. From custom mugs to t-shirts with their face on them, the possibilities are endless. If they have a favorite hobby or activity, find something personalized related to that. It could be anything from golf clubs with their initials engraved onto them to a unique piece of jewelry with their name inscribed. There are so many options when it comes to personalized gifts, so find something that truly reflects your loved one’s personality and interests.
Board Games
For the competitive person in your life, a board game is an excellent choice. Whether they’re looking for something strategic or something more lighthearted, there are plenty of options available to suit any taste. Board games are brilliant gifts because they come with the added bonus of time. Essentially, you’re saying that you would love to spend time with them playing the game you have bought.
Equipment for a Hobby
For the person in your life that is passionate about a particular hobby, gifting them something to help them in that activity can be a great surprise. Whether it’s a new set of paints or a special tool for their woodworking, they’ll love being able to pursue their passion with even more gusto and enthusiasm.
A Gift You Can Make
DIY gifts are becoming increasingly popular because of their bespoke nature and ability to really capture the thought that’s gone into them. Depending on your skill level, you could make anything from a scrapbook to a knitted blanket or even a homemade candle. The possibilities are virtually endless, and the receiver will appreciate the effort you put into their unique present.
