The only thing better than receiving a gift on Christmas is receiving one with a ton of thought behind it. Christmas is one of the best times of year to show your loved ones how much you care. By carefully selecting gifts you believe they’ll love, you strengthen your relationship with them and lay the groundwork for a beautiful year to come.
That said, we know how tough it can be to pick the perfect gift. After all, the festive season throws a lot at all of us! In this blog, we’re reviewing why it’s important to personalise your gifts and how to figure out what to get your loved ones. Even better, we’re offering a few suggestions for great personalised Christmas gifts in NZ.
Why is it important to personalise your Christmas gifts?
Imagine this.
You’re sitting under the tree on Christmas morning, and your loved one has just handed you a gift. You gently unwrap it, wondering what it could be. When the gift is finally revealed, you realize it’s something you’ve wanted for ages, but something you might never have bought for yourself. You realize how well they know you and how much they’ve been paying attention, and that fills you with warmth.
That’s why! It’s as they say, it’s truly the thought that counts.
In short, personalised gifts tell your recipients not only that you care enough to get them a gift at all, but that you took the time to pick something you thought they’d really love. It shows how well you know and love them, which is the real gift, isn’t it?
How to Choose Gifts for the People You Love
Finding the perfect personalised Christmas gifts in NZ can take time, and that’s alright! It’s almost like doing research on your loved one, but you’re using what you already know about them to find the answer. The best way to find a great gift is to look at your relationship with them.
 Ask yourself:
- Â Â Â What do they always want to talk to you about?
-    What’s a problem in their life that you could solve?
-    What’s something that they might want but would never buy for themselves because they think it’s too expensive/silly/frivolous?
- Â Â Â What do they spend their spare time doing?
- Â Â Â What are some common interests you share, and how can you give them a gift that brings you closer to that interest?
