Christmas is one of the best times to show friends and loved ones how much you care. It can be challenging to find the perfect gift that truly expresses how you feel. Try these unique ideas to make Christmas special for the people you love.
Donations
For the person who has everything, a donation in their honor can be a meaningful gift. Find a cause they love and give generously. Organizations like Heifer International even offer gift catalogues so that you can give chickens, cows, goats, or other resources to families who can benefit from raising livestock. If your loved one is an avid radio or podcast listener, consider making a donation to their favorite program. A Kickstarter campaign can also be a fun donation, because it usually includes cool, exclusive swags. There are endless options for charities and non-profits that can benefit from a donation and will show your loved one that you care about them and their passions.
Gift Card for Massage
Everyone experiences some stress during the holidays. Some families travel, others host extended family. Gift shopping, meal prep, house cleaning, flights, packing; all of the plans and preparations can leave people feeling stressed and tense. Give the gift of relaxation to help relieve knotted necks and cinched up lower backs. A gift certificate for a massage at the Spa at Breckenridge is the perfect way to help your loved one start the year out right. They will feel pampered and loved as they let go of all the anxiety that has built up over the holidays.
Club Subscription
A subscription is the gift that will continue to remind your friends and family that they are loved all year round. You can sign up for subscriptions that will arrive monthly, bi-monthly, or even just a few times a year. Each time a box arrives at their door, they will think of the fabulous Christmas they enjoyed with you. There are subscriptions for just about everything. Some of the more common subscriptions are wine, beer, coffee, and flowers, but you can also find some that are outside of the traditional box. These include bacon, snacks, candles, hot sauce, books, specialty razors, and even underwear. Whatever your loved ones’ needs or passions are, there is a subscription available to match it. Amazing Clubs offers a wealth of ideas to choose from. Check out their long list of clubs, to spark ideas for what your loved will enjoy.
Membership
A membership is another gift that continues to give all year long. These are especially great for families. Memberships to your local science museum, children’s museum, zoo, botanical garden, rec center, or other local attraction will help families create memories and learn and grow together. The gift of an experience can make an impact that will last well beyond the holidays.

For more tangible items, check out sites that offer unique or hand-made items. Uncommon Goods and Etsy are both marketplaces that offer gifts that can’t be found anywhere else. Make a personalized Reel Viewer with pictures of shared memories with your loved one. This topography art is perfect for the adventurer in your life.

Try Something Different
When you start your holiday shopping this year, try something different. Think about what your loved ones enjoy and what unexpected gift will light up their faces when they open it. There is so much joy in giving, have fun this year by giving something special.
