Many of us do not attach importance to holidays, but isn't it a very good opportunity to once again give a smile to our loved ones and show how precious and important they are to us? And how to do it? Gifts are one of the best expressions of our love and attention.

Choosing a gift is as pleasant as it is a complex and responsible process. What to buy so that the recipient will like it, how to choose among such a large selection? Where to start? It's really complicated, isn't it? It is difficult, but not impossible. Let's make sure of it together.

Step 1: Gift selection

Pay attention to character and habits.

This is perhaps the most important question that helps to understand what to emphasize. Depending on the character, you can easily choose which side to go - to be original and look for something really special, or just stop at the choice of a practical gift? You can ask yourself what kind of person the gift is intended for, is he more practical and rational, or has a romantic character, does he prefer an active or passive life, does he like to travel, what movies does he watch, what music does he listen to? These and other similar questions will help to understand the temperament of the person and choose a suitable gift. For example, if he likes to do sports, then perhaps new sports clothes or a fitness watch are just what he needs. Is your friend a sweet tooth - you already guessed what to gift: the most delicious handmade chocolate that will make his day pleasant.

What hobby does he have?

Favorite activities make our life colorful and interesting, help to unwind and move forward with new energy. Therefore, when choosing a gift, do not forget about his hobby. You can give plant lovers an exotic and interesting plant that will become an integral part of the house and will remind them of the warm moment of receiving the gift for a long time.

What gift is he dreaming of?

You can ask about this directly, but this can prevent the surprise from happening. Try to find it out through indirect questions. Go shopping together and see what the other person is paying attention to.
There is another option - ask his friends what gift he would like. You can also use this psychological trick: tell him that you have already prepared the gift, and he will guess exactly what he would like to receive the most.

Just pay attention and listen.

This simple advice is actually the key to choosing the best gift. "How much I would like to have this new bag", "You know, I have started practicing English, I want to buy new books", etc. We all talk about our wishes and plans, so the more attentive you are in the conversation with your friend or loved one, the more likely the gift will really hit the mark.

Step 2: Presenting a gift

How the gift is presented is no less important than choosing a gift. And that includes every small detail, starting with the packaging, which is actually not a small detail at all.

Give impressions.

If you are not sure what to give, then focus on the recipient's emotions. It's time to put your creative talent to work. Remember what can make your loved one smile? Maybe taking off in a helicopter or a picnic with a tent overnight, a romantic dinner on the roof? An unforgettable evening is in your hands.

When creating is not for you.

Yes, that is also possible. Maybe you really don't know what to give or you don't have time to search for a long time. Instead of offering money, you can buy a gift card. This is quite a practical step, which completely frees you from the fear of making a mistake.

Be original!

Show individual approach. After choosing the gift, you need to think about the appropriate box and packaging. This is an important part of giving the best gift. In this matter, it is also necessary to take into account the temperament of the recipient. If your friend or loved one is an active person, then the packaging can be in bright colors, if more calm, then choose soft colors and not too conspicuous packaging.

Look for the gift in online stores.

Choosing a gift sometimes takes a lot of time. Online stores are a real salvation in this matter. You can familiarize yourself with the assortment very quickly and without queues, find gifts for various occasions, from birthdays to New Years, pay online and order delivery. Do you want to save time and make the best choice? Look for the gifts online.

Choosing a gift is really an art. When choosing it, you should prioritize not what you want to give, but what he wants to receive, which will make him happy. That way, your gift, regardless of the price segment, will be remembered for a long time.
