Make it Personal
Add the personal touch of having your gift customized. Include the recipients’ name, date of marriage, baby’s first Christmas, or even a simple Thank You. Your personal message transforms your gift into something truly special that will be cherished for years to come. From ornaments to housewares, your words engraved on your gift will show them you went out of your way to let them know you care.
Spice it Up!
One element of choosing a successful unique gift includes giving someone something that is of immediate use to them. This can entail something like a gardening basket or cooking utensils with special engravings. These are excellent options and will make a fine addition to any kitchen. Food is such a universal experience with loads of potential for creative innovation, and we can help you put together a basket or arrangement that will excite their palette.
Step Outside the Gift-Wrapped Box
There are certain products on the holiday market that can make an excellent addition to any home. Indoor options include something fun for a home office, or special personalized wreaths to give the house a touch of warmth. You can even get really creative and make common household items and doorways more festive. Now is the time to buy them something they typically wouldn’t have bought for themselves. We can help you get creative!
Fun for the Whole Family
We offer different board games that can shake up anyone’s typical Tuesday night. Costumes are a festive and appropriate product that can put a smile on everyone’s face. There’s nothing like seeing dad dressed up like Santa, or even better, the Grinch! There are some amazing toys on the market for children of ALL ages and interests (even the husbands and dads!).
Sometimes the gift is in HOW you wrap it! An interesting idea is to give someone a puzzle that contains another present inside. Make it fun by giving a two-phase present that allows for them to feel accomplished when they figure it out. This type of product can help build the anticipation and really put an interesting element into any gift that they won’t expect!
Think Practically
Let’s face it. Some of the best gifts we get are subscriptions, services, or even our kids offering to do chores for a whole day. Have you considered turning the tables and giving a special service as a gift to a friend or family member?
Do you know someone who has lost momentum or ability to put up a tree this year or hang their Christmas lights? Evanston Christmas Lights now offers Our Services Gift Packages where you can give them their time-honored traditions back without having to lift a finger! Call us for our package pricing and we will happily coordinate our schedules to come decorate your mom’s house, your elderly neighbors’ exterior lights, or your Uncle’s front yard. Give them something truly special and unique by giving them our lighting installation and decorating services.
