What’s the saying – it’s the thought that counts? Well, when it comes to gifts for the ones you love the most, the more thought the better. Because giving a more thoughtful gift will not only make them feel good but it’ll bring some gifting joy your way too.
So, if you’re looking for a bit less stuff, and a bit more sentiment. Ideas for simple things that mean more and even a bit of humour to lighten the load - then here are some simple ways that you can give a more thoughtful gift for birthdays, anniversaries, new homes, weddings and every other occasion you’re celebrating in 2024.
Add a personalised touch
There’s a reason all those initialled items have been popping up across the high street in recent years. Something that’s got our own initial on just feels a bit more special. But by personalising items with a whole name, a simple message, or a special date or place you can easily create something completely unique that they’ll treasure forever. Gift magic with personalised gifts.
Cherish the memories
Our lives are full of ups and downs, it’s part of what makes us human. So, the gifts that help us to remember the most special people, places, animals or moments in our lives will always have so much more meaning. The science even tells us that nostalgia makes us happier. Gift memories by choosing presents that capture a moment.
Think practical & purposeful
For those of us looking for a simpler more meaningful way of life, practical gifts with a purpose are a great choice. But practical doesn’t have to mean boring. Choosing gifts that will be used regularly, that will bring organised happiness to their home, that can be taken on their travels, or that present a piece of jewellery in a special way are a sure way to gift joy.
Give them something to treasure forever
Throwaway or cheaper products can seem great for a bit of fun but something that’s made to last a lifetime will bring joy for years to come. Leather, bronze and steel products are made to last. And with care will even get better with age. Gift wonder by choosing them a long-lasting, timeless, keepsake.
Don’t forget the finishing touches
Gift surprises with a handwritten note, a ribbon in their favourite colour, or a leather gift box or tag. Don’t scrimp on the finishing touches that add so much. The simple little things that show how well you know them and how important they are to you.
Or why not leave it up to us and choose our gift-wrapping service when you order. We’ll beautifully wrap your gift in luxury paper and ribbon and finish with a gift card and take another job off your to-do list at the same time.
Whatever occasion you’re buying for, we’ll help you add thought and heartfelt meaning to bring joy that will last well beyond the big day.
Gifts sent with love from our family to yours, happy gifting!
