Tired of giving the same boring gifts? Try one of these inexpensive sentimental ideas
January 31, 2006 (Press Release) --
1- Give a gift certificate for a professional photo session. This is a unique shower gift for an expectant Mom. Many freelance photographers and studios offer gift certificates for sitting fees or complete photo packages depending on your price range. This is a gift you know will definitely be put to good use as new parents can’t get enough pictures of their bundle of joy.
2- For the couple who has everything, why not give a gift certificate for ballroom dance lessons? Ballroom dancing has made a big comeback and it ensures the couple will have fun while spending quality time alone. If they have small children, you could also include a coupon for free babysitting!
3- Do you have a difficult time expressing how you feel about someone you love. Do you find yourself at a loss for words? Have a professional poem writer put your feelings on paper. After you provide them with some basic information, they will create everything you want to say but don’t know how. A very romantic gift!
4- Sign a child up for a Sticker of The Month Club. Children love to get mail! This is a very inexpensive gift that keeps on giving as you can sign up for a 3 month, 6 month or 12 month package. Each month the child will receive a sticker book, collection of stickers, pencils and coloring sheets. I’ve given this gift on many occasions and I can guarantee you it is a winner.
5- Name a Star after someone you love. Nothing is more romantic than the two of you gazing up at the stars! You will receive a certificate of authenticity with the star’s name to gift wrap and then together you can search for your star.
6- Tired of giving candy to your girlfriend or wife? How about chocolate body paints instead? A set of paints and brushes is under $20.00. It is fun, delicious and definitely a new twist on giving candy.
7- As a person struggling with the effects of Multiple Sclerosis, nothing makes me happier than when someone makes a donation to the MS Society in my name. It doesn’t need to be a large donation, it is just a heartwarming thought that someone cares so much. Everyone has a charity that is close to their heart. Contact them a send a donation in a loved one’s name. They will receive a beautiful card stating that you had made a donation on their behalf.
8- Have an old family heirloom photo restored and framed. You can also have an artist draw the photo into a portrait to give it a brand new look. A sentimental gift for any family member.
9- Take advantage of modern technology and have a photo made into a blanket. Great idea for new parents or grandparents so they can always cuddle up with their children.
10- Have a print framed of a favorite artists’ work or a special city you have visited. It provides creative home decor and helps to keep the memory alive. www.art.com has thousands of prints and frames to choose from.
