How to choose a joyful gift

How to choose a joyful gift?


/ Idea 1: Clarify the scene/

The gift-giving scenario can help us narrow down our choices.

For example, for housewarming gifts, it is more suitable to choose household items; for example, for car gifts, you should choose good car items; and for wedding gifts, paired items with long-lasting meaning are better.

Housewarming gift for a friend: incense stick + incense stick


/ Idea 2: Clear preferences /

Of course, if it is a broader gift choice such as a birthday gift, we need to confirm the scope by clarifying the other party’s preferences.

This requires us to judge the preference of the gift recipient through information collection and daily observation.

For example, if your friend has a favorite IP (such as Harry Potter and Disney), you can choose some good peripherals related to the IP; for example, if your friend is a renter who often needs to move and is worried about the accumulation of items, you can Choose some practical and consumable items; for example, if your friend has a very distinct interest, you can choose items related to the interest.

However, you need to pay attention to this kind of choice. A person often purchases many items by himself because of his own preferences. When an item reaches a certain amount, it may become idle.

And some friends will feel anxious when facing idleness. At this time, choosing the same type of items as gifts will make people feel “embarrassed” (for example, if I receive a cup and a canvas bag now, I will thank you at the same time. feeling anxious).


/ Idea 3: Ask directly /

If you don’t force a sense of surprise, and based on your understanding of the other person, and if they don’t mind this method, asking directly is actually the best choice (but some people may feel that asking directly is not thoughtful enough).

/ Idea 4: Start with the meaning /

If none of the above ideas can help you find a choice you like, you can also consider the meaning of the items.

Common everyday plants such as happiness trees, red roses, and carnations contain meanings; another example is that the name and fragrance of a certain perfume can fit your impression of a friend; another example is that I gave a perfume to a friend who was born in summer in previous years. For wind chimes, the merchant made a total of four wind chimes. The sounds are slightly different according to the themes of the different seasons, so I chose a sound that represents summer and gave it to my friends.

Although we occasionally feel that the concepts of many products are forcibly given by merchants for the sake of closing deals, when used in choosing gifts, we can fit the concepts and meanings with our own blessings and intentions, and give them to the right person.
