If a picture is worth a thousand words, the perfect gift for a loved one is worth a million. Whether it is for a birthday, holiday, or anniversary, putting thought and care into what you pick out for your family member or friend can say a lot. A simple way to show you care with a gift is to make it personalized. These gifts can come in many forms such as engraved cutting boards, monogrammed mugs, and personalized photo beach towels, but they have the same important functions.

Building Strong Personal Connections

Giving a gift to someone that is catered to their interests and speaks to their individuality becomes a symbol of your bond with each other. It shows that over the course of your relationship you have paid attention to their tastes and preferences and that you funneled that knowledge into a thoughtful gift. Every time that person looks at their personalized photo beach towel or monogrammed wine glass, they'll think of you and the fact that you remembered they love going to the beach or have an affinity for white wines.

Functional For Anyone

Personalized gifts work just as well for people you aren't as familiar with as those you're very close to. You may be buying a present for the holiday gift exchange at work and don't know your colleague that well, or maybe your aunt is very hard to shop for. Going for personalization is the easiest way to make the gift feel catered to them. Instead of grabbing a generic teddy bear off of the drugstore shelf, get a coaster set with their initials printed on them, or a colorful keychain with their name on it. While you may have trouble pinning down the gift receiver's exact interests, you can easily use their name to make a gift more personal.

Perfect For Every Occasion

Unlike holiday-themed baubles or knick-knacks, you can give a personalized gift for any celebration. If you know your mom loves the beach, give her a personalized photo beach towel with the whole family on it. This custom gift will encourage her to explore some of the 95,471 miles of shoreline in the United States while being able to have a piece of family with her. Custom gifts are perfect for couples on their anniversary or wedding, as you can add a date or place to an engraved present to make it even more memorable. 

The next time you're stumped on what to give someone as a gift, take a personalized approach. They're sure to love the gift and you will even have fun in personalizing it for them.
