Good Gifts For People Hard To Choose For

[ Edited ]

Let's share gift ideas for those difficult people on our list.  After all, how many calendars can one give?  LOL!!!

 

These two suggestions delight every time!

 

1.  I love Uncle John's Bathroom Readers  3-5 minute stories rarely heard on a variety of subjects!  Lots if hi interest facts you'll want to share!

2.  Immages Of America Series  Virtually in every town and city across the nation.  Photographs from the 1800's-present and detail on the facts durrounding development through the early 1900's.  

 

Everyone finds these fastinating.

Last year for Christmas we gave recipe cutting boards to 8 family members and everyone loved them. I ordered them from Etsy. Bamboo cutting boards with a handwritten recipe from a loved one lasered on to it. 

 

They were really well received. A very personal gift. 


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

My brothers are always a challenge so I try to get them something that they would not buy themselves. Some of my best presents were automatic opening stainless trash cans, automatic paper towel dispensers, they loved them. This year I got them Yeti Rambler water bottles. They are expensive and but I have one and have dropped it multiple times and it does not lose its ability to stay cool. My niece told me the other day that my brother would love a Yeti but they are so expensive that he cannot afford it. My other brother is a park ranger and one day I saw him with a plastic cup with a pink lid. I think he will love his Yeti.

Yet Ramblers are great!  I gave those also last year and am giving a few this year also.

@ECBG

Might I suggest Poo-Pourri to go with your #1? Or should I say #2? 😊

Whatnow, since she's a girly girl, how about a gift card for a mani/pedi?

@Its Me LuLuBelle2You could also get her a pretty scarf if you've seen her several times to see what she wears.  The scarves at White House Black Market are really nice.  Their sweaters, jackets, and other items are beautiful.  Our Daughter in law LOVES their things.
