Give Her a Christmas Gift She’ll Love
Giving a Christmas gift to a woman can be challenging. She will be extremely receptive to unique and thoughtful gifts.
Sometimes, shopping for a woman can be the hardest Christmas gift to get. Women’s interests are so varying that it can be a bear just to find out exactly what she wants. Women tend to take care of others more often than themselves. The best possible idea for a gift for her is one that’s frivolous, fun, caretaking and/or comforting; let her know she’s loved.
How to Choose a Gift for Her
First and foremost, a gift for her should NEVER be practical. Practical items should be bought by her or, if you have the fancy, buy her a practical gift at a “no reason” time, not one for Christmas, anniversary, etc. Normally, a woman wouldn’t want a gift certificate. If she does want one, make sure it’s to the place she wants or to her favorite store. Make sure, and this is especially for the men, to gift wrap the present. She will be very appreciative of the effort and time that is put into the gift. If it is difficult to decide what kind of gift to get for her, a gift basket is a treat that will never be turned away. These baskets can be full of her favorite perfume, lotion, toiletries and any other beauty products.
Some of the Best Gifts Are Free
She, in all actuality, appreciates a fun-loving gift that shows thought and preparation. Many women still want the diamonds, fancy gifts and such, but there are ways to accomplish this and garner the extra points of being thoughtful. A very fun idea is to stage a scavenger hunt. Homemade scavenger hunts are great because the surprise is more anticipated and it will guarantee to put a smile on her face. Another one is a beauty counter makeover. Yes, they can go and get one themselves but how often do they actually do it? These beauty counter makeovers are free and they are offered at almost every makeup counter in every department store or mall. She’ll definitely be touched by this one. A funky photo album is great for close friends or just as remembrances for good times. This is a truly personal gift. The way to go about this is to gather some snap shots and glue them in place on the pages of an old children’s book, for example. There are a number of things that would make unique and cool albums or frames. A little thought is all that’s needed.
Unique is Chic
At Christmas what better way to get her to smile than giving her a most impractical, but unique, gift. What woman wouldn’t like a pretty gift that has absolutely no use whatsoever?
Life-like feather roses are just such an example. Each leaf and petal is fashioned from real feathers. These roses will hold their beauty forever. Another rose idea is crystal. A crystal rose in a crystal vase is romantic as well as a beautiful touch that will last year after year.
A rather funky one is giving her a “fan” mug. For example, get her a pink Chicago Bears mug. Whatever gift that is chosen for her, she will love it. Putting a little thought into a gift idea makes it even better and even more treasured.
Choosing a gift is always very difficult for the female gender if you want to please her. Personally I would prefer crystal rose in a crystal vase as its romantic and I am sure it will look beautiful.
