The Art of Gift Giving is both easier and harder than you think. Giving gifts is easier than you think because people are always showing you who they are, what they like and don’t like. Pay attention to your peps and you won’t need to ask them what they want for their birthday; You’ll already have ideas to surprise them. And I don’t know about you, but I love surprises…giving them at least. It’s fun to give a gift they didn’t even know they needed. Once they see it, they instantly realize they’ve need that box of XYZ for years! They’ll wonder how they’ve lived this long without it! Now that’s a great gift! Let’s move onto the harder part of gift giving…some great gifts you have to craft and shape. They cannot be bought, they can only be dreamed up and created. Often the extra effort is what makes a gift great. With the right effort and creativity, you can go the the Dollar Store and it’s still straight magic. I believe it really is about the thoughts and feelings you put into a gift that make it amazing. You don’t necessarily need to spend a lot money on thoughtful. Thoughtful is the magic sauce.
