What type of gifts are appropriate for milestone celebrations?
Gifts that are personalized, practical, or indulgent are great for milestone celebrations. They should reflect the significance of the occasion and the personality of the recipient.
Do I need to wrap the gift?
Yes, wrapping the gift adds a special touch. Consider using birthday-themed or celebratory wrapping depending on the occasion.
How do I choose a meaningful gift for someone I don’t know well?
Aim for neutral gifts that appeal to a broad audience, such as gift baskets, candles, or plants. Personal touches can be added with notes.
Is it better to give a group gift or an individual gift?
A group gift can often provide a more substantial present, especially for larger milestones. However, individual gifts can be more personal and meaningful.
How much should I spend on a gift for my neighbor?
It’s best to consider your budget and relationship with your neighbor. Typically, spending $20-$50 is appropriate for milestone celebrations.
