Something Related to Their Roots

Buying a present for somebody can be one of the most difficult and frustrating processes there is. It is often extremely troublesome to decide which gift they would like the most, especially when there are a million questions run through our heads, such as: Do they like this color? Does it look like I have spent enough money? Do you think they have already got one of these?

It is often best to try and find something which shows you have put a lot of thought and consideration into the gift. Obviously this is a lot easier said than done, but if you can find an aspect of their personality or their life experience which really stands out, then it is a good idea to try and find a gift which will relate to that. By doing this, it doesn’t even really matter what your present is, as the person will be merely happy that you have shown how much you care.

One of the best ways to think of a thoughtful present is to think of the person’s roots and opt for something traditional which will relate to their childhood and growing up. Every single place has something which is special to that place alone; Italy has pizza, Scotland has Scottie dogs and France has Christian Dior. By buying something that the receiver of the gift can identify with you are automatically provoking an emotion of happiness as their mind will flick back to the happy times they had there.

If the person you are buying a gift for comes from Scotland or has memories in the area then I would highly advise that you take a look at the prospect of buying them a Scottish necklace. This is an idea which is often overlooked, but there are a whole host of beautiful detailed traditional Scottish necklaces which will certainly be appreciated. There are often other jewelry pieces like this for different cultures as well, so do a bit of digging online and you are bound to find something that is linked to their roots and will make an exciting and beautiful present.

Something Self-Care Focused

Do you have a friend that is always go, go, go? Maybe they’re a new mom who also has to juggle a full-time job, or maybe they are a college student that’s trying to juggle their school responsibilities with their work responsibilities. Everyone needs some to take care of their mental and physical health, but that is getting more and more difficult to do.

A great gift could be a self-care package. Fill a box (or bag) with items that can help the recipient wind down and reconnect with themself. Examples: gift certificate to a yoga or meditation studio, herbal tea, matcha latte kit, face masks, candles, a book you have personally enjoyed, nail polish, a journal, a book about self-care, or maybe even a gift card for a massage or facial. There are just so many ways to approach self-care, but that list is a good start.

So there you have it: some great gift ideas for you to consider. We hope that you have found something that has helped you!
