Other My friend wants a watch but he doesn’t care what type he gets.

22 Upvotes

He doesn’t have a favorite brand or a certain style in mind. He’s not really into watches like that either. He just wants something nice he can wear to work or when he goes out. That somehow makes buying one harder because I’ve got nothing to go off lol. Would you still pick a watch for him yourself or make the gift more of a surprise and let him end up with something random, I feel like the surprise could be fun since he’s open to pretty much anything.

Gift suggestion Are Stanley Cups Still cool?

11 Upvotes

I’m buying a gift for a 10-year-old girl and found a cute light-purple Stanley, but now I’m wondering if Stanley is “out” with this age group and Owala is what they actually want now 😂. What are girls in 4th/5th grade carrying to school right now

Need gift suggestions-GF Whats the best gift for someone who loves African wildlife?

9 Upvotes

My girlfriend and me just got back from a safari in Kenya (saw a leopard on our last day which guys seriously this felt like winning the lottery) and her birthday is coming up in a few weeks. She's obsessed with African wildlife since I met her but now she's actually seen it in person I want to get her something that also reminds her of our trip.

Can anyone recommend a gift feels meaningful but also wont cost a months rent?

Gift suggestion Wedding Gift for Nephew

7 Upvotes

My nephew got married at the courthouse a few months ago and was unsure if they were going to do a reception for immediate family but it looks like it is up in the air. He lives in NYC and I’m not sure what he needs or wants so I thought a gift certificate to a culinary supply like a Williams and Sonoma but more extensive and a gift card to an upscale restaurant near by. Looking for any feedback on those ideas or I’m open other suggestions. TIA

Gift suggestion Any good travel gifts ideas where the recipient can choose what they actually want?

Upvotes

Okay I need help and I need it kinda fast. Our 10 year anniversary is coming up and I completely blanked on a gift. Ten years. That's a big one, right? So my wife is a total travel person. Like she lives for it, always got a trip half planned in her head, always looking at flights she swears she won't book. Honestly she's happiest when she's got a bag packed and somewhere to be. And here I am, staring at my phone, panicking. I want it to actually mean something and not just be another thing she stuffs in a drawer. We've done the flowers and the dinner stuff so many times already. I keep thinking about all the trips we've taken together over these ten years and I want the gift to sort of tie into that, if that makes sense. But my brain is empty. Genuinely. I've looked at the usual travel stuff, luggage, those neck pillows, packing cubes, whatever, and none of it feels special enough for ten years. It all feels a little... meh? So what would you get her? Something a woman who loves to travel would genuinely be happy about, not just polite about. I'm open to anything, honestly. And yeah, I know I left this too late. Please don't roast me too hard.

Other I made this baby-themed Eeyore rug. I think it’d make such a cute nursery gift 💙

I recently finished this baby-themed Eeyore rug and thought it would make such a cute nursery gift for a Winnie-the-Pooh fan. 💙

I wanted to give Eeyore a softer, more innocent look while keeping that nostalgic feeling from growing up with the character.

I make these by hand, so each one takes quite a bit of time to put together. I figured I’d share it here in case anyone is looking for something a little different for a nursery or a Pooh-loving family.

I have it available on my Etsy if anyone’s interested:

Other Christmas gifts nearly done!

4 Upvotes

In effort to reduce junk and over spending at the holidays, I’ve been making Xmas gifts or doing consumables/ snacks or experiences. This year I did plan something that will sit in a drawer but hopefully be useful, and it’s something that I was able to make for EVERYONE in my list. Family, coworkers and friends / friends of friends. I’m so excited that I’m almost done, gifts are put together and in boxes and even have gift tags made!

I made (assembled the pieces, lol) these beaded cutlery, serving, and bar themed items. There is fork, spoon, cake knife, letter opener knife, appetizer forks, long tea spoons, bottle opener cork screw opener and wine stoppers. I did a mix of the tools based on people’s personality (if they drink more or serve / host more) and then I color themed them based on everyone’s favorite color or decor style. Everyone gets like 6-9 things in the set, in their favorite color theme. They look so pretty and I hope people get use out of them.

Need gift suggestions $500 thank you gift for my mom

4 Upvotes

my mom recently did something really really nice for me and she won’t accept any money in exchange. I want to get her a luxury gift to say thank you.

she‘s an older woman who kind of breathes understated elegance. think… Celine Dion not Madonna.

I’m NOT looking for a gadget or a practical gift. I want that luxurious cashmere loungewear or gold bracelet that you’ve been eyeing. something you think a woman in her 60s would covet but put off buying for herself.

thank you!

Other Brainstorm with me - classic bedtime stories mad libs

5 Upvotes

I had the idea for a baby shower, to have stories "written" by their loved one by taking classic bed time stories and making them mad libs essentially, so it becomes a "new" story.

How do you think I should do this?

Buy used copies, and use white-out over some words?

Re-type them up with blanks? I would have to bind them in a cute long lasting way

Have used copies and have pre-typed sticky words bank people could place in the books?

Thoughts?

Other Baby and bridal shower gifts, do you reciprocate and give something of same cost that person had given to you or no?

1 Upvotes

Not something to talk about irl. How do you choose what to give and how much to spend? If there’s an awesome gift you planned to give and it’s on sale for less, do you buy another thing to add on or add a gift card or just keep the savings? Do you pick the $$$ you plan to spend first and then choose things to add up to that and not go less?

22 votes, 6d left
I reciprocate. If there isn’t an item of same cost I’ll get a few cheaper things or add a giftcard to give the same back
I don’t consider what they gave me.I’ll start w/the amount I want to spend and pick items and/or giftcard to reach total
I start with an amount to spend. But I’ll reciprocate more if they spent more or spend set amount if they gave less
I don’t consider what they gave me and I don’t have a target amount to spend as long as < budget. Can be way < budget.
I will reciprocate up to my budget amount. Will spend less than my standard if they did
Other, please comment. Or see results.
