Choosing the perfect gift for people in your life is not an easy task. You don’t want to get them something basic, like candles or clothes, but you also don’t want to get them something so unique they might never use it. And unless they tell you exactly what they want, there is always a risk of buying something they already have or just do not need. If you have a birthday or holiday coming up and have no clue what to give a loved one, you can never go wrong with something sentimental. A meaningful gift that you put thought into shows how much you care about them. It is also a gift they are probably going to cherish more than something they could have just bought themselves. Gifting does not have to be hard, save yourself the worry with these 7 sentimental gifts to give anyone in your life:

1. Personalized Map Glasses

Do you and your childhood best friend have a specific location you go to every time you both are home? Is your childhood defined by many late night conversions you have had in said location? If this sounds familiar, personalized map glasses are a perfect gift. You can get a specific location engraved on two glasses, so every time your friend goes to drink out of it, you know she will think of you.

2. Custom Picture Pillows

If your friend is moving into a new place and you have no clue what to get them for a housewarming gift, custom picture pillows are a great idea. You can choose the style of the pillow and upload any picture of your choosing. A picture pillow is a classic gift that I guarantee friends and family will love.

3. Scrapbook

Sometimes, the best gifts are the ones we make with our own two hands. Scrapbooks are a simple yet meaningful way to show someone just how much you care about them. All you have to do is buy a journal, print off a bunch of photos of you and your loved one, and paste them all together. You can even add little doodles or notes throughout the pages to make it even more special.

    4.   Matching Jewelry

 

Whether this is for a significant other, a parent, a sibling, or a friend, you can never really go wrong with matching jewelry. Nothing is more meaningful than wearing a piece of jewelry that you know your loved one also has on, no matter where they might be in the world. If you get your mom matching mother-daughter necklaces for a Mother’s Day gift, she will cherish it forever. 

        5.  Photo Puzzle

 

For your friend who loves puzzles, get them a custom photo puzzle. It is not only super meaningful, it is also a fun activity you can do together! You can get a custom photo printed onto a puzzle that you have to piece together yourself. Plus, the end result will be a giant picture of them in puzzle pieces. They can even glue it and frame it if they want. What’s not to love?

            6.  State Candles

 

A perfect gift for someone who is moving is a state candle. They have candle scents from all 50 states, as well as diffusers and car fresheners. Whenever your loved one is feeling homesick, all they have to do is light the candle and they will be instantly transported back home. How sweet!

           7. Custom Vouchers

 

If you are looking for a fun and unique gift for your boyfriend, fiance, or husband, custom vouchers are a great idea. You can write whatever you want on them, like “10 minute massage” or “date night”. And whatever your beau chooses, you have to do it! Get creative with custom vouchers.

Gifting does not have to be difficult, you just have to get something meaningful that you know your loved will appreciate. Giving a sentimental gift is way more special than something basic that they have probably already have. Put some extra thought into your gift and the people in your life will appreciate it.
