You read that right. We are just a few months away from the holiday season and shopping for gifts has once again appeared in our calendar of activities. Are you looking for the perfect presents to give your loved ones this season? Here are some great options for you.
Personalised Items
Looking for something that can be personalised off the shelf? You can never go wrong with personalised or customised leather goods. There are plenty of ways to personalise these items, but if you do decide to take a ready-made piece, monogramming can be done to give it a personal touch.
You can also opt for bulk orders for which you can get a higher level of customisation options, to create the perfect personalised presents for your friends and family. Want to make it even more efficient? Go for unisex items like cardholders, coin purses, key caddies or bag tags.
These small items can also be monogrammed and can come in individual gift boxes, so that is one less thing on your to-do list. Genuine leather is a sturdy material, and with proper care, can last up to years. There is real value in these items as it is something that can be used for an extended period.
The material ages well and develops a patina that makes the item even more beautiful through years of use. Want to take it up a notch? Go for vegetable-tanned leather. This tanning technique uses dyes extracted from natural sources like plants, more commonly from tree bark.
Bespoke Pieces
For that special someone, finding a unique gift that reflects their personality and style can be quite a challenge. Bespoke pieces are quite special gifts as they are specifically made for one person, making it one of a kind and truly special.
And the best gifts for this customisation method? Jewellery and stylish accessories that are made of leather. So, if you want to really make that special person truly happy, aside from the gift of love, give them something you know they will really love and will enjoy using for a long time.
Let them know that they are really special by giving them something that is exclusively made for them.
One-Off Pieces
Lastly, one-off pieces. These are usually off the shelf or off the rack pieces that are exclusive to a location, like a special edition timepiece. Styles and designs vary but are only released once, and usually only one piece for a selected country, region or store.
What makes a special edition, one-off timepieces valuable is its rarity and exclusivity. These designs are limited or specific to a location, which makes it a collector’s item and an heirloom, too. It is a gift that can be handed down from generation to generation.
Make Gift Shopping Fun
The trick to make gift shopping for the holidays less stressful is to start early and schedule your purchases. Avoid the rush and the crowd and piling up on the bills. The more time you have in your hands, the better your buying decisions will be, and the more manageable your expenses will be.
Early scheduled shopping allows you to pick from a complete list of options, which becomes impossible during mid or peak shopping season. So for this year’s shopping, start early and make sure to add these personalised items to your list, and we guarantee you, your loved ones are going to love it!
