The first tip is a rather simple concept - that of - personalization. This is definitely key when it comes to gifting. Here are a few tips and tricks to help personalize your gifts -

• Gifting with Intention - The thought behind a gift is always the most important aspect. Rather than giving something that might seem impressive or has a hefty price tag, take a minute to think of a conversation you have had in the past when the person might have mentioned something that was on their wish list or maybe an item that reminds you of them. This helps bind emotion to an otherwise materialistic gift.
• Ignite A Sense of Nostalgia - Adding items that have a memory attached to them is a beautiful way to gift. Nothing is more intimate and personalized than cherishing old memories and creating new ones.
• Curate an Experience - Having a few different options that can be curated into a gift box can work in your favor as well. Wellness and self-care hampers and gift boxes are safe options to pick from. Or you can curate a set of complementary items that each tell a part of a story with the whole coming together to create a unique and immersive experience for the recipient allowing them to uncover every aspect of the gift box that has been (thoughtfully) put together for them.
• Expect the Unexpected – Uniqueness will always stand out. Instead of the usual sweets and gift-wrapped showpieces, try to include items that are one-of-a-kind. Gifting is the best way to let people discover new products or services. Innovative concepts and thinking out of the box are key to creating a statement. But always keeping the personality and nature of the recipient in mind. A budding writer? Gift them a Masterclass. A dog-lover? Well, how about matching dog and owner clothes from Spark Paws (so cute!!)
• Repurposable Packaging - The concept of imbibing the 3Rs - Reuse, Reduce and Recycle should never get buried under any To-Do or To-Buy list . Opting for gifts that are wrapped with packaging that can be repurposed for display or storage is a responsible choice. PLUS, it ensures the lucky recipient has a reason to remember you way past the gifting occasion. . There are plenty of options that can replace the regular dull plastic and paper-based options. You can find a number of options that include wooden and ornate cloth options that are not only stunning but also sustainable, environmentally friendly and reduce waste generation.
• Support A Cause – Make your gift a part of something bigger. Spread happiness in more ways than one by allowing your gift to be a part of a contribution towards a worthy cause.
