Personalized gifts are great at any time of year, aren’t they? They’re even more special around Christmas time. Giving a gift that’s been perfectly personalized to someone’s tastes, interests, an important life event, and seeing the recipient light up - that’s the magic of giving.
It’s what we all love about Christmas (well, a part of it, anyway!) and with a little help from Decorator’s Warehouse, giving personalized Christmas decorations as gifts has never been easier.
On that note, here are 5 great ideas for personalized Christmas ornaments that make excellent gifts, and you can give them at any time of year!
Based on Interest
The easiest way to give a personalized Christmas decoration as a gift, especially if you don’t have a specific moment to celebrate, is to target the recipient’s interest, or even academic pursuits.
Is there someone in your life that just loves sports? Know a die-hard offroader? Even a young one that’s going through the “dinosaur phase”?
Lovers of music, martial arts, architecture, video games, even something as simple as grilling can easily be offered personalized gifts that are aligned with those interests.
Giving personalized Christmas ornaments that reflect those interests is a simple and effective way to let a recipient know you’re paying attention, you care, and that those interests are important to you as well.
Plus, the great thing about this sort of personalized gift is that, while it can make a great Christmas gift, you can give them at basically any other time of year as well.
Celebrate a Birth
Another great way to customize a Christmas gift is to celebrate a birth, especially if it occurs around Christmas time - although that doesn’t matter, you could give this sort of gift even if the birthday occurs at another time of the year.
A newborn is a special blessing in the life of a couple and there are so many ways to commemorate it - personalized picture frames, albums, getting and bronzing the child’s first pair of shoes - these are just a few ways.
But another great one is with a special Christmas ornament that immortalizes their birthday and which will be cherished by the family forever. We offer several options in our collection, take a look at them to see which you like best. They are perfect for friends and family members that have welcomed a little one into their lives.
Another type - though it isn’t necessarily commemorating the birthday - is a “Baby’s First Christmas” ornament (also available in blue). These also make great personalized gifts!
Commemorate Matrimony (or an Engagement)
There are few milestones in life as significant as engagement and marriage. Either or both of these can be easily commemorated and given a special honor with a gift customized for the very occasion.
Engagement-themed ornaments make great gifts for those that get engaged around Christmastime, but as for weddings, a “first Christmas together” type of ornament also makes a great gift - and again, not just at Christmas time, but as a gift for the wedding or shower.
Immortalize Mom’s Favorite Recipe (or Anyone’s!)
Here’s a really cool, niche idea for a personalized Christmas ornament. Does your family have a special recipe that only gets broken out once per year (such as at Christmastime) or for other similar special occasions?
A great way to pay tribute to such a special thing (and to the person whose recipe it is!) is with a customized ornament.
We have just that thing for that - take a look at our “My Favorite Recipe” customizable ornaments.
Other Important Achievements (Graduation, New Job, Home Purchase, etc.)
Lastly, a great way to personalize Christmas decorations is by recognizing important achievements and other life milestones, other than those that have been mentioned here.
For instance, do you know a special someone who is coming up on an important graduation? Any graduation will do - high school, college - but for doctors, lawyers, and other graduates, it’s even more of a milestone.
Other important events could be getting accepted to a college, joining a sports team or another athletic accomplishment, or even just starting a new job.
Another unique one is purchasing a new house, or a first home. We have just the perfect ornament for that. Check out our “First Home Key” personalizable ornament.
Of course, these are just a few examples - there are many others.
