Are you fed up with racking your brain to come up with suitable gift ideas for birthdays, the Christmas holidays and other special occasions? Do you worry that someone else might come up with the same gift idea as you? Are you concerned that your gift will not be well received? If you suffer from any of these fears there is a simple way to overcome them - make your own gift, personalized to the recipient's personal tastes. I know that sounds difficult, but it's really not! In this article I am going to focus on personalized gift ideas for the home, and provide you with three different products that can be personalized to create some of the best gift ideas around. Personalized Blankets Everyone likes to snuggle up under a blanket on a cold winter's night, whether they're watching TV, reading a book or just dozing on the sofa. That makes a blanket a good gift idea, but, if you personalize it with meaningful photos and a message or two, it's no longer a good idea, it's a great idea! Before you rush into customizing your blanket, stop and think about the interests of the recipient. For example, if they are a parent or grand-parent, you can bet your boots that they would love a blanket personalized with photos of their children or grand-children. If they are a dog lover, can you think of a better gift idea than a blanket personalized with a photo collage of their favorite dogs? Personalized Shower Curtains Before deciding on a shower curtain for a present you need to make sure the recipient doesn't have a bathroom with a shower cubicle enclosed with a glass door! If, however, they have an open shower cubicle or a bath tub that doubles up as a shower, a personalized shower curtain could be a good choice. Before making up your mind, pay a visit to their bathroom. Does the shower curtain look new or is it old and dated? Does the bathroom have a theme, sea shells, dolphins or something else? Armed with what you have learnt on your visit to their bathroom you should now know whether they are actually in need of a new shower curtain. If they are all you need to do is personalize a shower curtain with a color scheme to match their bathroom; if the bathroom has a theme simply add that theme to the curtain and you will have the perfect gift - a gift they will without a doubt appreciate! Personalized Doormats Next time you visit a friend or relative have a look around the porch to see if they have a nice doormat. If they don't have one or the one they have is tatty and worn you'll probably find a personalized doormat will make a nice present next time you need to buy a gift for them. When it comes to the personalization you can create the perfect mat to suit their character. If they are very formal a plain mat with some simple text should be ideal - something like "Welcome to the Smith's" or "The Smith Residence". If they are happy go lucky and less formal maybe a touch of humor would work - something like "Welcome to our Humble Abode" or "No Riff-Raff". The bottom line is when you make your own gift it can be anything you want it to be. Just do a little research, look for something the recipient either doesn't have or something they do have but needs replacing. Once you identify a suitable product all you need to do is personalize it with photos, designs and text you know to be dear to them. Do that and you will have the perfect gift - a gift that is meaningful to them as well as being something they will use.
