Consider these tried and true gift-giving guidelines!
Katia Designs has special holiday deals on unique gifts designed to empower and inspire.
According to Gallup, Americans plan to spend around $923 this holiday season on gifts. They also report that 90% of adults will buy gifts this holiday, with most spending a minimum of $500 and 35% of people spending over $1,000. That’s a lot of money to pay if you don’t get it right. We have seen how mass gifts are returned yearly because people are not pleased with what they received. This year can be different, as long as there is a little effort put forth when picking out the gifts.
“We can do better than grabbing something last minute and hoping for the best,” says Katia Rudnick, owner and jewelry designer at Katia Designs. “This is the time that you can shine by picking out something that will be meaningful and make someone happy.”
Not only can gifts make the person receiving them happy, but they make the gift giver happy, too. According to research published by the American Psychological Association, spending money on others called prosocial spending, leads to greater happiness than spending money on oneself. This may be one of the driving factors behind why people spend so much during the holidays – because it makes them happy to give people gifts.
Before selecting those gifts, however, there are five tried and true gift-giving guidelines to consider, including:
- Something they want. There’s something that everyone wants, and most people know about it already. They have been dropping hints and letting people know that it’s what they want to receive. It’s great to get this gift, but there is no element of surprise in it. They already know that someone is going to come through with purchasing it.
- Something they need. This is something that they usually need, but they may not be willing to put the money out to purchase it. They may need a new toaster, iPad, or something else, but they keep putting off making the purchase. This will likely be a practical gift that will fill the hole of something missing or replace something they have.
- Something to wear. Gifts that people can wear are sensible and will always remain a staple. To get this type of gift, you must know the person, including their sizes, color preferences, and whether or not they will wear it. This could be where the idea of the ugly sweater originated, after all. This is a gift that will keep them in socks or something similar, but it’s not going to dazzle or wow them.
- Something to read. This is always a good choice if you know that the person enjoys reading. You can select based on their favorite authors, genre, interests, hobbies, and more. Purchasing books is also an affordable option for those who are on a budget or want to stretch their gift-purchasing ability.
- Something that makes a statement. This is the gift that is going to wow them. It’s the one they want, but they may not even know that they want it. It’s the gift that when they open, they will have a huge smile and know that this was a well-thought-out gift that could be for nobody but them. It matches their personality and is going to make them feel special.
“People who purchase jewelry gifts from my collection are giving something that makes a statement,” added Rudnick. “Not only does the gift giver feel good, but every time the person who receives it and wears it, they will feel good. If you have a spiritual badass on your list, my jewelry line is exactly what you are looking for.”
