Every year, there are series of important occasions that occur in our lives. In each and every one of those, we practically go to the dilemma of thinking what to get for an anniversary gift, birthday gift, Christmas gift and so many more that the list could go on and on forever! You wanted to buy him/her this and that but the problem is you’re on a tight budget and that adds up to your dilemma.
So here are some affordable gift ideas to help you out!
Long letters
-Great gift idea especially for women who
are fond of reading
-Very old fashioned but never goes out of
style
-Better if handwritten than type written
ones
-It’s a great gift for family and friends especially
when you’re not very vocal about your feelings and insights about them (I
personally think most moms and girlfriends will like them)
Bus tickets/receipts/movie tickets
-You could, for a whole year, write at the
back parts what happened that day or what occasion was it. Gather it and wait
for the most special event you would really like to give it, like anniversary,
engagement proposal day and the likes. (My boyfriend actually does this)
-You’re like documenting the special dates
in a less diary way.
Cater your talent
I believe that each and every one of us has
their own talent. Why not use it? It’ll be more personal and effortful plus you
get to practice your talents and that’s good!
*Sketching
->Draw them or whatever their favorites
are.
*Writing
->Create a poem. For it to be more
personal and unique, use the letters of their name as the first letter of the
first word on each line!
->Create a short story of their lives or
how you met them or like a look into a future that you envision for that person
*Stitching/Embroidery
-> Why not embroider their names or like
favorite characters into a handkerchief or towel or anything.
*Performing (Singing and Dancing)
-Create a show, it can be one-man show or
you could use the help of others, and create a ticket that is exclusively for
that person then perform live.
-You could also compose a song.
*Photographing
-If you like taking pictures and you’re
really good at it, even if you have the right equipment or just your phone, why
not capture great shots and edit it then print it. You could write messages at
the back of the photo
-If you’re on a budget and didn’t want to
print that so much pictures, why not take her to a local park or somewhere nice
and beautiful and make her your model for that day. (I really think that girls
would like this one). Who wouldn’t want to be a model for a day and get her
special someone’s attention, right?
Give them their favorites
-For this one, a person could only think of
food. But I have other ideas for you guys!
*Harry Potter fan
–
give them printed admission forms from Hogwarts or Hogwarts train ticket. I
think you can get one and download online for free or if not, you could create
them yourself. You could also dress yourself up while giving it. I think a
black robe will do!
*Game of Thrones fan
-everybody loves Khaleesi! Why not boil an
egg or more then paint the eggshells like a dragon egg. You could put them in a
box and put in the card/label, “Dragon eggs for my Khaleesi!” It’s cute and
funny and food at the same time!
*Book lovers
-get something online. There
are a lot of ebooks that are free and downloadable. Get them their favorite
authors’ books.
If
you don’t have any idea though, I highly recommend ‘A Knight in Shining Armor’
by Jude Deveraux. It’s about
time travel, romance and mystery!
PRESENCE
I always believe that presence >
presents. No amount of expensive present can equal to your actual presence.
It’s the most practical and memorable gift for everyone. I know this will be
appreciated the most by your receiver.
