Creativeness
As people are different and tastes differ as well, it is possible to deep into more personal reasons of giving presents. Sometimes they are like a link between past and present. It happens when people do not see each other for a long time, but once they remember about a best friend at a school. Thanks to our memories sometimes different people return into our life even after many years of silence. In such cases real, vivid gifts are created. They are not material usually, but they bring warmth and tenderness of heart, sweet memories about far events that united people once in the past. A hand written letter proves connection with an old friend again. Add this letter to a material present, read it at the company, like an appeal from the past to the present and future times. A friend, especially a woman, would be touched with this personal addition. It is something that differs the real presents from the informal and neutral ones.
Risk and surprise is an important element of a friendly gift as well. Offer a visit to a hairdresser or a massage specialist beforehand and bring your friend to the place at the right time. Which woman would be against visiting a beauty salon, especially if it is a sudden and nice present on a special day?
Another variant to make your dearest person happy is to end the repairing in an apartment or add new interior with a desirable, but missing thing. Just imagine, that you return home thinking of disorder at an apartment, but you find shining order and finished repair. I would call it "a gift of Gold Fish". Really, it sounds like a fairy tale. Sometimes at the age of 40 people have dreams like in childhood.
For really non-ordinal and romantic people another gift is ready – a site on the Moon. Be sure that it is an expensive pleasure, but at least pre-wedding promise to give a star comes true.
The kids would be happy to hold correspondence with a favourite fairy-tales' hero – Batman, Superman, Grandfather Frost, Tom and Jerry... of course, you could play a role of this hero, but you need much imagination like the kids have.
Another issue is when you do not have enough money to make a good present, but a present is needed. So, it is a perfect stimulus to make your mind create something unusual and very special. In continuation of Chinese tradition to make small cranes of paper, it is possible to make some experiments with the bonds. Do you remember a fairy tale about a wooden boy with a very long nose? So, he tried to grow a money tree. We are able to make it with our own hands. You need a flower like aloe in a pot and many small notes. Make the figures with the notes rolling them like you wish it to do and fix on an imaginary tree. It promises to become green and very funny. You can add a funny greeting card with the good words. The present is ready! On wedding celebration you can make a masterpiece with your own hands. The ingredients are a firm sheet of paper and many small notes. You are to put them on the "picture" with glue. What form you wish to choose is your own decision, perhaps shaped like a heart of a flower.
The puzzles with a picture of a hero/heroes or something corresponding to a case (for example, a wedding pie for an engagement ceremony) is not a creative work of a presenter's hands, but could become a pleasant surprise for a person of any age.
Creativeness in composing gifts is desirable, but not the most important part of gift craft. It depends on an occasion, a receiver and connection with him, a giver's desire to make a present more special or more unusual. Some part of your soul enclosed in a gift is something that distinguishes this gift from any other present. It must be twice pleasant to invent a gift and then to see how a hero of an occasion is happy to receive such an unusual thing.
