If you’re struggling to find a unique Christmas gift to give to someone – join the crowd. A lot of people end up strolling down the aisle of some store looking at every little thing that is cute, funny or strangely different. There’s certainly no shortage around the holiday time of things that go whirr, buzz or that giggles. But, just because it does something a bit unusual, does that mean you should give it to Uncle Joe?
Maybe, and maybe not.
Yeah, sure, Uncle Joe is tired of getting a box of socks from you every year, so you’re determined to find something that will literally “knock his socks off” as a gift. It’s great that you want to do something different, but now you’re stuck trying to figure out exactly what different kind of thing to get him. If you’re just randomly looking at anything and everything, then it’s not gonna be easy.
I mean Chia planters are popular during the holidays, and they’re unique and unusual, but who actually wants one?
Before we go gift shopping for Uncle Joe, let’s take into account his personality, work environment and leisure activities. Joe is in his 60s and works as a manager in a manufacturing plant. He’s had the same job for forty years. In his leisure time he likes to work with his hands and has various projects around the house. He’s definitely a “do it yourself” type of guy. He’s a down to earth person who is warm and quick to smile. He has lots of friends and enjoys watching football.
Here’s some ideas for unique gifts that Uncle Joe might like:
Personalized NFL Jersey – give Joe an official NFL jersey of his favorite team. Personalize it with his last name and favorite numbers.
Home Beer Making Kit – he loves drinking beer, so give him his own beer making kit where he can experiment with different recipes and make his own brew to drink during football games.
DIY Home Improvement DVD – he loves fixing up the home himself, so give him a DVD on fixing up something specific in the home (basic wiring), or one that has a bunch of tips for all around the house. This is something he can watch over and over again.
Let’s find another example.
Your cousin Monica is in her 20s and works as a receptionist for a small company. She’s a homebody who has a pet dog she likes to spoil. She doesn’t have any hobbies, but enjoys throwing dinner parties for her small circle of friends. She’s not much of a fashion hound, but loves surrounding herself with beautiful and interesting things.
Here’s some unique gift ideas for Monica:
Quesadilla Maker – she can make all kinds of homemade Mexican style quesadillas in a jiffy with this electric kitchen gadget.
Natural Crystal Salt Lamp – this is a lamp that’s made out of a hunk of real salt crystal from the Himalayan mountains. It produces ions that actually cleanses the air. It also makes a great conversation piece.
DVD for Dogs – her pooch tends to get a little upset when she leaves to run errands, so give her a DVD that’s designed to relax her dog when she’s gone. It features nature sounds and lovely music.
The key to finding an unusual gift for someone is to first think about what type of person they are and what they like to do. This makes choosing a unique gift that they’ll actually appreciate a lot easier.
