Top 10 Christmas Presents 2010
No matter what happens in the world, Christmas Day has always been there for us to stress over and worry about, but ultimately to enjoy
. Although that might give you a warm tingly feeling inside, it is also something that you cannot escape from. Christmas presents have to be bought and at times it can be quite hard to find the inspiration to come up with something heartfelt and original. However, some of the most successful presents are the old favourites that everyone would love to receive. Here is a helpful little list to give you a nudge in the right direction for when you are getting a little stuck on what to buy.
One type of present that is ideal to give if you are looking for some inspiration for your Christmas presents is experience days. People have so many material gifts these days that sometimes it is nicer to give someone something a little more memorable. There are such a wide range of possible choices for experience days, so you will easily find something to suit the person you are buying Christmas presents for.
On a similar note, why not share that special experience with your loved one and give them a gift day, such as a pamper weekend at a Spa. Gift days are wonderful Christmas presents as they can be for both the giver and the recipient. Especially if the person you are buying for is very special to you, chances are that they would want to be spending their present day with you, so treat yourself at the same time as them.
Another present that is always lovingly welcomed is engraved silver. It always goes down well because they encompass an already beautiful gift, with that touch of personalisation and sentiment that demonstrates that you truly care. It could be cuff links or a photo frame, the choices are limitless as pretty much any silver object can be engraved. Once you have chosen the gift you merely have to think of a phrase or quote that means something special between the two of you. It can even be as simple as the initials of someone close. As long as it is something that separates that gift from all other gifts, it will definitely put a smile on their face.
Seventh place is, of course, alcohol. Now we aren't just talking about any old alcohol, but at the end of the day it is Christmas and a time for merriment. If people are going to be buying alcohol anyway, why not save them the trouble and find something far more special than they could ever find. It isn't every off-license that stocks personalised Champagne!
While we are on the topic of alcohol, the next Christmas presents on the list are somewhat related. At Christmas especially, something that everyone seems to enjoy is a friendly, naughty joke, so why not encompass this into a present. Those naughty niceties may make someone blush, but those red cheeks are always followed by a smile and a giggle. Whether it is personalised risqualendars or simply a naughty card, Christmas presents that push the boundaries a little are always warmly welcomed.
Coming up fifth on the list are nostalgic presents. We all love going through old photographs and sharing memories so why not make Christmas presents with this in mind. A beautiful trinket box for your Nan to hold all those old black and white photos of your mum as a child is the perfect present to bring tears to her eyes. Christmas is the perfect time to catch up with family and friends and trace over everything that you have been through as a family, so use this to your advantage when choosing Christmas presents.
Third and fourth place on this list are somewhat similar, but not to be confused. The funny and novelty gifts. Who would say no to 'The Good Book'? Especially when it sneakily conceals a hidden flask! There is such a range out there, not to mention all the little trinkets that you find in the Christmas crackers as Christmas is a time to embrace these little funny novelty gifts.
Second to last but certainly not to be overlooked, are those lovely little gifts that require a little extra effort from the recipient. A Grow your Own Bonsai Tree is certainly no easy task, but a good example of those wonderful Christmas presents that show you have thought a little extra hard about what you are buying.
Last, but, everyone will agree, not least, are the old favourites. Chocolates and sweets. It really is a requirement for Christmas and you should use that to your advantage when trying to pick out your Christmas presents this year. The diet can start next year and you never know, they might even share with you, if you are lucky!
