Since I'm trying to do better with acknowledging my family's birthdays and part of that is getting them a gift. Sometimes I'm not sure what to get certain people. I mean most people don't really NEED anything, or if they do it's not a gift type of thing. So when I find something that could work for a lot of different people I get excited.
Today I'm sharing my go-to-gift guide for the person who already has it all. These ideas also work great for gift exchanges when you aren't shopping for a specific person. Hopefully it will be useful for you too!

1)Finish this Book is great for anybody, even kids! It involves the reader in completing the story.
2)Perplexus Balls may look like a kid's toy (and kids do love them), but even adults will have fun with challenging puzzle.
3)Gourmet Salts are a unique gift for people who enjoy experimenting in the kitchen.
4)Bath Gift Baskets are great for anyone who enjoys relaxing and being pampered.
5)Cooking for Geeks brings the science into the kitchen.
6)Bocce Ball Sets are so much fun. This game is basic enough for kids to play, but is also great for adults.
One important part of making memories for me is celebrating and sharing them with others. Significant dates are the easiest to make into memories (anniversaries, birthdays, etc.). This year I'm going to focus on birthdays - just immediate family of my husband and myself for now - it's ok to start small!
I feel like it's important to acknowledging birthdays of those close to you. Collect birthday's of those you want to remember and write them into your calendar, planner or phone. Make sure you make a reminder at least a week in advance so you have time to prepare everything!
A physical gift isn't necessary - a well thought out letter detailing why you're grateful to have that person in your life is more meaningful and often more useful than giving them materialistic things. If you don't have time or resources for big gift, a card is great too.
Sometimes it is nice to give an actual gift. I love picking out that perfect present and seeing how happy it makes someone. It makes me happy too! Often I find myself wondering what to give someone, so whenever I find a gift that could work for a number of people I save it. I'm going to be sharing my "go to gifts" in my next post. So stay tuned for more!
