Put your leftover paint in these paint buddies and retouch your walls anytime you need to!
Honestly, this is the type of thing that would make a great wedding gift. Don't you think? Only 'cause it's something you'd never really buy for yourself, but it's so f-ing handy to own. Would I be the only one excited to get one of these?
If someone close to you has an important birthday coming up, you know what you should do? This.
My friend Marla started sending me notes in the mail a month before my actual birthday (30 notes for my 30th birthday). What kind of notes, you ask? SWEET-ASS THINGS THAT SHE THINKS ABOUT ME! Compliment notes, if you will.
Is this the nicest thing in the world to receive? Why yes, yes it was. And some of them included gift-gifts too (like Urban Outfitters clothes & face masks!). Am I bragging? Fuck yeah! 'Cause this is one of the nicest things that anyone has ever done for me and I'm almost mad that I hadn't thought of it myself to do for someone else! You know what a fan I am of correspondence.
Anyway, definitely keep this in mind as a gift idea for a special birthday. Marla, you're the kindest person in the world and I'm lucky as FUCK to know you.
“If you can’t think of a gift for someone’s birthday, but you’d like to get them something more than just a card – go to Etsy and type in “baked goods” and search for sellers in the recipient’s state/province (so that shipping is crazy reasonable).”
“Bake a batch (or two) of Christmas cookies, wrap them up in a few different tins and keep them (wrapped) and in your refrigerator. So when someone surprisingly shows up with a gift for you, you have one in return for them. ”
Can you tell I'm extremely into the idea of preserving a child's youth? Is that normal considering I have no children? I'll wonder these things in the privacy of my room later. In the meantime, look at this guy.
This Etsy seller will put a child's drawing (or anyone's drawing really) onto a small keyring for you for $90 - $140 (depending on the size of the drawing). I don't know if that's a ludicrous price, but I would probably consider doing it some day. It's such a sweet idea.
Apparently, there are dozens of places on the internet where you can turn your Instagram photos into other things. Things like:
I would probably get the magnets done at some point, too. Such a sweet little idea. What these sites should really have is a way to purchase these as gifts to give to other people. As of right now, you need an Instagram password and login to choose what you want to print, but it's such a good gift idea for another person since receiving one's own photos as magnets would be such a welcome surprise since we all think we're individually such great photographers. (We are... right?)
