| Everybody loves surprises. We enjoy the suspense of a twisted and convoluted plot in a movie or the unexpected love plot between two unlikely people in our favourite soap opera. It is no different when we give or receive presents. Imagine the scene. Your birthday or anniversary is fast approaching and just like a child, you start anticipating the celebrations that you are planning. This year it is going to be better than ever, with all the careful planning involved. But there is one thing that is completely out of your hands and that is the gifts
There is always a dud gift that wings its way to you and puts you on a bit of a downer, even though you are having a great time. All this just goes to show that when we choose a gift for someone, it could make or break their big day. We need to think about unusual gifts, in order to thrill and enthral. Unusual gifts are a pleasure to receive because they are so unpredictable. Nobody could possibly guess that they are going to receive such a weird and wonderful present, and will remain clueless as to what it is until the wrapping is removed. Unusual gifts are by their very nature able to keep you guessing just what they are, which is half the fun of receiving and giving.
Who could have predicted that inside this quite ordinary looking wrapping paper lies one of many unusual gifts? A Faux Suede Cushion Photo Gift in black or cream is personalised with a photo of your choice, and so could display a picture of you, your child or anyone near and dear to you. Maybe you would prefer a photo of your favourite pet or a beach shot from a memorable holiday. Whatever scene you choose to display on this luxuriously soft cushion, this makes a lovely surprise unusual gift that will mean so much to the recipient. They will definitely not guess what it is until they have it unwrapped. If you give someone a mug as a present they will be forgiven for recognising the shape in an instant. There will certainly be no prizes for guessing what it is. However, what they will not be expecting is a personalised mug with their name in bold letters for the world to see. Personalised mugs make great unusual gifts, as there is something that will be completely suitable for everyone. With a choice of themes such as sports related designs, hobbies such as gardening, aspirational dreams such as the wonderful Hollywood Hills mug with their name in lights or Diamonds mug personalised with their name in a diamond design, the vast selection of mugs are unusual gifts to give to everyone you know. So the old hippy will love the Stonehenge mug while the work obsessed friend will really appreciate an I Love Deadlines mug.
If you are trying to find unusual gifts for a keen sports fan, but want to avoid the run of the mill present, look no further than a personalised Commemorative Book containing oodles of information on the best moments over the years in that particular sport. Each page is a scanned reproduction of a newspaper article dating back up to 100 years and has been authenticated. The lovely leatherette cover adds the finishing touches to an unusual gift, as it is personalised with the recipient's name in gold embossed lettering to the front cover. This hard back book is available in a variety of sports themes such as tennis, golf, cricket, rugby and football and will make a fascinating read containing heaps of great archive reports.
Buying jewellery as a gift is extremely problematic. It is all a matter of taste, and quite often the recipient finds that it is not what they would have chosen for themselves. However, all the girls have a collection of jewels and keepsakes that need to be kept in one place in a bedroom. For a truly unusual gift an Engraved Butterfly Square Trinket Box will delight any female, with its delicate mother-of-pearl butterfly design to the lid. Unusual gifts like this are hard to find, and because it is so ultra-feminine this is the perfect gift for a bride or as an anniversary present to a loved one. She will adore its dainty and decorative presence as well as its usefulness and because of this unusual gift she will be able to lay her hands on her jewellery in an instant, instead of wasting precious time hunting high and low for it. Unusual gifts are so effective in keeping people guessing. Surprises are such fun and unusual gifts deliver the goods so that everyone is more than delighted with what they receive.
