Give Your Gifts Some Twist to Keep Them Interesting
Written by Maria Gini
It can become quite challenging to make gifts interesting, especially when you have to choose appropriate gifts for several disparate people. Unless you have very deep pockets, or are splurging from a massive corporate budget; you need to remain price conscious about whatever gift you search. So, here are some gift ideas for you to use. Your guests will be delighted, and your budget won’t hit the ceiling.
Let Your Gifts Carry Your Distinctive Imprint
You want the recipients to cherish your gifts. Some door gift ideas revolve around articles of daily use which are packaged so innovatively that they leave people guessing what’s inside. Quite often children can’t wait to open their packages to see what return gifts they have received. At events where most of the invitees will be children, or people with small children, you can look for items like scented erasers shaped like comic characters. If your budget permits, it could be a box of crayons, or age appropriate coloring books. You could get them personalized with the name of each recipient printed on each eraser, or coloring book. The kids will be thrilled to bits. Water bottles have great utility value for people of all ages, and come in so many colors and designs, that you will be quite spoilt for choice.
Universal favorites: Adolescents would prefer handier things like earphones and chargers, which older children seem to run through like they do their shoes. Specially shaped chocolates, bicandy which follow a theme or other confectionery are universal favorites regardless of age and sex. Another universal favorite is the tote bag, which is unisex in usage, and comes in different designs, materials, and colors. For example, at a seminar on bringing back natural fibers, it makes perfect sense to present jute tote bags, which have bamboos handles, to the participants and volunteers.
Let the Price Be Cheap, Not the Taste
There are many cheap door gifts in Singapore for you to choose from. Lanyards, the ubiquitous promotional pens, pillow boxes, plastic cutlery sets, shoe bags, caps and mini umbrellas are just some examples. Other high utility items which people can’t really have too many of are things like picnic mats, lunch boxes, fridge magnets and foldable fans. However, you need to be cautious in your selection. What might be appropriate as a tradeshow giveaway, or a product launch may not be appropriate at a bridal shower, or a silver wedding anniversary.
