A Guide to Finding Personalized and Unique Gifts

If you need to buy a gift but are feeling stumped, first think about the person you're choosing a gift for. Key in on their personal style. How do they decorate their home? What style and colors do they wear? What colors, textures, and patterns represent them the best? What kind of music, books, and movies do they enjoy? (Check out our collage-making tip for keying in on someone's personal style.)

Make a short list of items you think they would like. Be as random as you like, but key in on their personality. A faux fur throw, a star named after them, a motorcycle helmet, a day at the spa, a George Foreman Grill…

Then, just order your gifts online. For some people, this can seem daunting or even mysterious. But it's actually an extremely convenient way of buying and sending gifts as long as you plan enough time for the delivery. Just check the product avability and shipping options before you click the buy button!
