'Tis the Season!

...for gift giving and receiving!  Although you may have all your gifts purchased for friends and family by now (or maybe not), most of us have difficulty selecting a gift for special people in our lives.  We may find difficulty due to finicky personal tastes of the friend, or even that the recipient already owns something similar to what we hope to give to them.
   It's easy, however, to feel confident purchasing a personalized gift for someone.  Personalized gifts always feel more thoughtful to the recipient, because they show the true value of the relationship you have with your friend or family member.  They also show a level of thoughtfulness a common item found in big-box stores could never show.
    When gifting a personalized gift, timing is most important.  Something personalized with a message often holds emotional value to the recipient, which often bring tears of appreciation.  Think of your surroundings before handing the gift to the recipient so they can react naturally without feeling too vulnerable.  (A party full of extended family and friends most likely isn't the best time to share a personalized gift, as the meaning may be lost in the activity).  When presented in a private setting, your loved one's true emotions can show through, strengthening the relationship you hold with them for life.
