Christmas Gifts Tips from TheFruitAndFlowerBasket Team | Part 1

What should I give my sweetheart? ? Every year before Christmas we break our heads. One thing is certain: it should be creative and personal. Shortly before Christmas (still without a present), we resort to something practical at the last minute: "You can always do that !? Beautifully packaged (by the cashier) (= creative part) we present socks or shower gel (= personal part, since even selected). Nice mess, let's say!

If that seems to be a bit familiar, we have something for you here: The TheFruitAndFlowerBasket editorial team introduces you to their gift ideas today. Let yourself be inspired!

the never ending Story

Read Michael Ende-books:

"Momo" or "The Neverending Story" are great and exciting books that I also really enjoy as an adult and that I like to read together: z. B. With the partner or the children.

Making a photo calendar:

Photo books are great and look good, but a home-made photo calendar also has something! Every year we buy a calendar for crafting, we cut photos and think about funny stories and dialogues, which we write and stick to balloons cut out of construction paper. The photo-picking is a lot of fun and the result is always funny!


Meditate (together):

I catch myself again and again: Everyday life and work are hectic, there is always something to do. It is not that difficult to consciously take some time each day: meditate for ten minutes? Here's how it works: Lie down in a quiet spot on the floor, maybe cover yourself with a thin blanket and meditate: That's different for everyone! Some hear calming music, close their eyes, focus on their body or the moment, try not to think about anything, do yoga, or or or ... No matter what, the main thing I take a few minutes and escape the hectic everyday life. Amazing how much a few minutes a day make a difference here! I feel more comfortable and relaxed. And what's even more fun: meditate together with your partner or your partner!

Give away your favorite dish!

My brother loves my home-cooked Thai curry. That's why I pass the recipe to him this Christmas. For this I have written down the recipe on a beautiful letterhead. In addition he gets in a small basket all the ingredients, which he needs to re-cook.

Donations instead of gifts:

It's always hard for my grandmother to find a present. Actually, she does not want anything, but I still want to give her a treat. That's why I donated to WWF on her behalf this year. On the website you can choose which project the donation should go to. Afterwards one receives a certificate by PDF and by post, in which one can enter the name of the donor or the gift recipient. This action is offered by many nonprofit organizations, which is why everyone can find a heart project.


EXIT game

EXIT games - for a perfect game night:

My friends and I love a game night together. A few months ago we discovered the EXIT games from Kosmos-Verlag. Here, as a team, you must solve a puzzle together in exciting subtasks. For a game you need about two hours and you can choose between different topics and levels of difficulty, and level beginner is by no means to be underestimated! The games are always a lot of fun and we talk about the riddles for a long time afterwards. That's why I'm giving my best friend a new game for our collection.

Natze

Voucher:

For those of you who are not blessed with the greatest wealth of ideas as regards the selection of gifts for Christmas, I can recommend a simple classic coupon. The advantage of this is that the recipient can buy what he wants from it. Dislike, exchange or resale of the gift plays a role here in the rarest case.

Candy machine

Candy Machine:

If you want to give children, grandchildren, nieces or nephews the ultimate pleasure, I can recommend a so-called sweets machine. Thus, for example, gummi bears can be produced yourself. A creative fun in which certainly the adults like to participate.

Laura

A portion of relaxation:

Since I do not see my mother that often, she always enjoys doing something together. I have her more often? Mother Daughter Days? a gift of relaxation ?: a package with a voucher for a spa visit and homemade bathing balls. For this I use this guide here. Since she loves lavender, I will add a few drops of lavender oil to the balls. Alternatively, the gift can be supplemented with a relaxing bath or facial masks. To complete the gift, I put it all on a beautiful plate or in a bowl, a few more candles in it, bind a gift tag with the imprint? A portion of relaxation? around the slide: Done is the little relaxation package!

chocolate fountain

For chocolate lovers:

My brother loves chocolate. He put me on a gift idea when he was recently thrilled with my chocolate fountain. Since he does not have one, it was immediately clear that I would give him a present. This one convinced me right away. So I had this year already in October the first Christmas present and hope he is happy about the fountain, which will lie with a lot of chocolate for him under the Christmas tree.

Warming Christmas:

I have a warming present for my best friend this year. Since she always freezes, I bought fluffy cuddly socks. For this I make this gingerbread liqueur, which I prepare in larger quantities and give to other friends. Label the bottle nicely, pack everything, ready!

We hope you enjoy our ideas and we could inspire you a little! In a few days, the second part will come with gift tips from the editorial office.
