THE BEAUTY OF GIVING A PERSONALIZED GIFT

It can be difficult to find the right gift for anyone. This is especially true if you don’t know them all that well. While most people appreciate the positive intention inherent in gift giving, a poorly chosen gift can become a disappointment. This is why personalized gift giving is becoming very popular. Personalized gifts accentuate the most important reason behind gift giving - because you know the person. Typical reasons for gift giving are: you want to offer thanks, good wishes or just to make someone feel good. These gifting opportunities are all dramatically increased by giving personalized gifts.

There are several ways to personalize a gift. Each makes sense for particular gift giving situations. Custom photo printing on various products ie:coffee mugs, shirts, coasters, desk & wall clocks, woven photo afghans & lots more are available on line at sites like: Names2U.com . Putting someone’s picture on an item that they use daily or an unusual item created with a message of thanks, friendship or love (depending on the nature of the relationship) helps to transform what would otherwise be a not-very-interesting-gift into something that will make the recipient think of you fondly.

There are several online and brick and mortar stores , like Initially You Too-personalized presents plus in Cleveland, Ohio, that offer good deals on professionally produced personalized gifts. Search online by simply searching phrases like “personalized gifts”. You can find a plethora of offerings to meet your needs. If you have a specific idea, you can search for something specific like “personalized coffee mug” or “personalized beach towel” to help narrow your search results.

If you are more comfortable using a local supplier you can try looking in your town phone book.

Personalized gifts are a super idea for giving gifts to children. Initially You Too-personalized presents plus has been a woman-owned business for over 30 yrs. Their company specializes in personalized children’s gifts such as personalized rocking chairs, piggy banks, bookends, wall decor, stuffed animals, ETC. Their gifts can be personalized with embroidery (ie: canvas rocking chairs), handpainting(ie: artisan canvases ), imprinting (ie: big sister/big brother tees) and more. Giving personalized gifts to children is a way to show the parents of the child that you’ve taken the extra time, effort and expense to create a gift specifically for their child. This is a great way to score major points!

By personalizing a gift with special themes, a person's name and/or pictures, you connect the gift to the recipient in a strong & pleasurable way. Your gift is given AND received with more meaning. Try it, you will like it & so will they !
