GIFT IDEAS FOR THE ‘HARD TO BUY FOR’ PEOPLE ON YOUR LIST:
(1) Something Homemade:
*Gifts, made with love, are always a big hit! You’re able to give your loved ones an original, unique gift, that you put time and effort into. Parents and Grandparents, especially love a good, homemade item, and will greatly treasure it, forever!
(2) Something Personalized:
Gifting someone with a present, meant JUST for them, is a sincere and wonderful idea. They’ll know you took the time to pick out and personalize a gift that means something to them. It’s a kind and thoughtful idea and will always get a big reaction! Adding a family name or initial, or perhaps the recipient’s name or monogram, are just some ideas of how to personalize! Also, think the colleges they attended, their sorority’s letters, a nickname or quote you share, are other unique ways to make someone’s gift extra special!

(3) Something Practical:
Sometimes, the answer to “What do you want for Christmas?”, can typically receive the answer, “I don’t know.” Or “I don’t need anything.” These are the people who perhaps have been given dozens of pieces of team paraphernalia, way too many knick knacks, and constantly receive the same, useless items as gifts. There are a lot of people who try hard to declutter their things, and adding well-meant, but useless gifts to their pile, isn’t what they want. Think about some things that your friends and family will actually use! Things that they have mentioned they needed in the past, or that you’ve seen them missing in their homes that they would benefit from having.

(4) The gift of an experience:
Sometimes, someone might be tricky to buy if it seems like they have everything or constantly tell you that they don’t need anything. Most people would thoroughly enjoy partaking in an experience, rather than receive a gift they don’t need. Giving them tickets or a gift card to something they wouldn’t think to get for themselves, is a genuine idea. Whether it’s something for them to do alone, with a spouse, their whole family, or for you and them to do, together, the gift of an experience is sure to be appreciated!
How about:
*An artistic experience at Pinot’s Palette! We sell gift certificates so you can give everyone in your family the gift of an artistic experience, this year! A painting and wine class is something that you’ll all be able to enjoy, together!! Come with your friends for a fun girls’ night out, your significant other for a great date night, or bring the whole family!
