'Tis better to give than to receive. The giving of a good gift is one of life's most fulfilling activities. A gift that sums up the recipient, a gift that will give them joy - or at the very least, a good laugh is the best give ever. I pride myself on choosing unique gifts for my friends and family. Many gifts can be expensive, but if you buy a gift that is relevant and unique, you'll never go wrong. Now, your budget might not mean you can gift rare gems, the Taj Mahal or helicopter rides away, but you might be able to give the gift of the moon and the stars. We’ll come talk about that later. But for now, here are some unique gifts that are sure to please the recipient.
You’ll need to seriously think here - as the biggest gift
you can give to someone is one that means a lot. It might have
something to do with their interests or hobbies, it could be something that
can further their life. A podcast host will love a mic, a sports lover
loves tickets, a musician will love an instrument. If you want to amaze,
think closely about the type of person who you are giving a gift to. What
would they like? What do they need? It’s not as hard a question to answer
as you might think.
What about a present or gift that is truly out of this world? What about a
gift that cannot be matched? Look no further than signing up to the international star registry. My sister-in-law gave Emma this gift for her first birthday. Although Emma has no idea what it was at the time, she loves it now. The International Star Registry allows you to name a star after someone or yourself.
You can choose a star located in a constellation or line it up with the
zodiac signs, to truly personalize it. You'll also be able to get a star
map that shows the exact location of the star you've bought (yes, you
are reading that correctly, it's a star, an actual star), so you can try
and spot it on a clear night. You'll also receive a photo book of the star and
some images of the universe. This is an incredible gift for anyone, but if
you know someone with their head in the clouds, it could be worth its
weight in gold - and stars weigh a lot!
If you're really close to someone, what about a special trip away to an
incredible destination? It's not a physical gift at all, but getting away
could be something that recharges and refreshed everyone. Purchasing a unique vacation is a lifetime experience.
Switching gears a bit from a luxury vacation. One of the best gifts that you can give a
partner is your help. Do their chores, compliment them and surprise them.
This all sounds boring, but it will mean the world to your special someone,
seriously.
We often look to gems and jewelry for gifts, and don't get us wrong, they
are special things. What about upping the ante when it comes to jewelry
to make it really special? What we want is jewelry that actually means
something or for unique pieces. These by MaeLo are incredibly rustic, and for good reason, they are made from antlers.
Custom-made pieces are a good idea as well, and these
14-karat gold discs complete with charms are a great personalized gift that can be a main present, or something on
the side.

All good gifts have one thing in common, they actually mean something to the person you are giving them to. It's all well and good buying stars or handmade jewelry for someone, but what if they don't like that stuff? Then an amazing gift turns into something of a failure. Learn more about the people you are giving too, because that is the only way that you are ever going to give gifts that nail it every single time. If you want to buy gifts to amaze, look within the person you are giving to and find something that means something to them.
