Personalised Gifts

Much-more-than gifts are always well received. Which is why personalisation has probably been around since the Romans, when wax tablets with ‘I love you, Caecilius’, ‘Cave diem’ and similar sentiment, were de rigeur.

Nowadays, personalisation is almost, but not quite, taken for granted. Because we know when it comes to gifts, it works wonders.

Take personalised photo frames, for instance. Symbolising the very framework of family life, they belong in every abode.

Wedding and anniversary gifts lend themselves to personalisation, too (in fact, we can’t think of anything that does not). Given a steady hand, even a pet hamster could be painstakingly shaved to convey a special message!
The old adage, ‘something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue,’ can be extended to wedding anniversary gift giving. Think ‘something red’ for fortieth ruby anniversary gifts, ‘something gold’ to celebrate  50 years together, and diamonds for 60 years. That said, a woman will never turn down a diamond, regardless of how long she has been married. Fact.

Personalised gifts are a wedding day staple. Little heart pendants for flowergirls and bridesmaids, champagne flutes for maids of honour, crystal vases or compacts for the mother of the bride, tankards or pewter hip flasks for the male members of the wedding party – weddings are a veritable hotbed of personalisation activity.
Christening gifts also respond really well to personalisation. Timeless, traditional gifts such as silver rattles, cutlery sets, charm bracelets, loving cups and bitesized pewter tankards all look a picture with the name of the baby and the date of the christening or naming day.

Birthdays are made for ‘the day you were born’ gifts. Containing amazing facts about anyone and everyone’s birthday, they give the recipient a real sense of what was going on in the big wide world when he or she entered this mortal coil. The whole family takes equal enjoyment from the facts therein, as they recall the day when their lives changed forever, for the better.

The experience of giving is always satisfying. Personalisation just makes it more rewarding still.
