Original and unusual birthday surprises
Birthday is a special holiday for everyone, because it is on this day that the date of a person's birth is celebrated. And, undoubtedly, everyone wants to receive some special gift for their birthday, be it an important and dear thing or an impression that will leave joyful memories for a lifetime.
But it is important not just to choose a high-quality and useful gift. It is necessary that it matches the desires, lifestyle, preferences and character of the birthday person. Let's take a closer look at how to choose a cool birthday present and make the birthday boy an unforgettable holiday.
Peculiarities
There are many factors to consider when making a birthday surprise. Let's talk about them separately.
- It is very important to consider the relationship with the birthday person. For example, some formal gifts to loved ones and close friends will not bring them joy, but, on the contrary, will upset them. For loved ones, the gift should be selected with soul and love. Formal gifts are good for coworkers and acquaintances with whom you don't have a very close relationship. But even in this case, it is worth thinking about choosing something useful that will definitely come in handy for the birthday boy.
- When choosing a surprise experience, do not forget to take into account the character of the person and his preferences. It is unlikely that a homey Tikhona will be comfortable at a noisy event, and a person with a fear of heights will hardly be comfortable in a parachute jump. You need to please the birthday person with a surprise, and not make him uncomfortable.
- If you are giving any edible surprises and cosmetic gifts, you need to take into account the person's health condition, the type and sensitivity of his skin, as well as the attitude towards such gifts. Some foods can be offensive, for example, if a person has problems with being overweight, while others can cause an allergic reaction and be hazardous to health. Cosmetics can also trigger allergies on delicate, sensitive skin.
- The surprise should be selected and organized taking into account the gender and age of the birthday person, since many options for congratulations may be appropriate for women, but will turn out to be completely inappropriate for men. And vice versa.
- When organizing congratulations for a holiday, it is best to keep everything secret to the last, so that the effect of surprise plays into your hands.
- And, of course, it is important to observe in all measure, since too much with congratulatory elements or an inappropriate gift can not only cause discomfort, but also seriously upset a person.
Unusual creative ideas
Sometimes, in order to please a person, it is enough just to give him a good gift, but imagine what his delight will be from a surprise organized with love. There are many different ideas for preparing an unusual birthday present, consider the most popular and impressive ones.
Balls
Balloons look very beautiful and impressive, which is why they are most often used to prepare surprises and birthday gifts. With them, you can come up with many different options that will undoubtedly delight the birthday boy.
For example, you can fill transparent balloons with different shiny papers and a special gas, thanks to which they will not just hang, but tend to the ceiling. The filled balls can be fixed to the floor, or you can let them sit freely under the ceiling. In the second case, contact with lighting fixtures should be avoided, since the balls can simply burst if overheated.
You can make an original surprise with balloons and a door.
The meaning of this idea is that when the door is opened, a large number of colorful balloons will burst into the room, and if the birthday person does not know anything about the surprise, then his pleasant impressions will become even brighter from the effect of surprise. To organize such a congratulation, you will need a large number of balloons, inflated independently or with a gas cylinder, scissors, scotch tape, beautiful wrapping paper or simple transparent film. From the outside, you need to glue the doorway with paper or film and fill the resulting space with inflated balls. It is very important that the door opens to the inside of the room, otherwise the surprise will not work.
If you want to present the birthday boy with a cash gift, but do not know how to arrange it in an interesting way, you can also use balloons.
Before you start inflating them, you will need to place a neatly folded bill in each of them, after which the balloons must be inflated and tightly tied. In order for the birthday person to understand that his gift is inside the balloons, it is best to attach a sharp object and a note with a detailed description of the actions to the surprise.
Photo
A surprise with photos may seem like a very budgetary and trivial idea, but this opinion is wrong, because here too you can come up with many pleasant and amazing ways to congratulate and please a loved one.
A collage of photos can be made in the form of a box, which will collect the warmest memories with touching captions for each of them.
You can buy a suitable box in a store or make your own from thick cardboard and beautiful wrapping paper. And an insert with photographs can be made in the form of a booklet or an accordion.
A collage of photos in a special album will look not so original, but no less beautiful will be the look of a collage of photos in a special album, as long as it is not a simple album for photos. It should not have compartments for each photo separately, it is necessary that it consists of clean dense sheets on which you can draw, write wishes and warm words, as well as stick photos. It will be very easy for creative and creative people to make such a gift - you can simply create a beautiful scrapbooking album.
In addition, you can make a beautiful and unusual garland from photographs. The only drawback of this option is that you have to cut up some of the photographs a little, but it's worth it. In order for the garland to be bright, beautiful and memorable, it is best to use a colored double-sided tape to connect its elements, which will need to be glued between two parts: fragments cut from a photograph and a piece of colored thick cardboard with a beautiful pattern.
Video surprise
For loved ones who live far from you or are simply on long business trips without the opportunity to come, you can make a video surprise with congratulations. In order for such a gift to turn out to be truly interesting and cool, you will need to carefully prepare: study all the intricacies of home video editing, ask all close friends and relatives to shoot small congratulatory videos, choose music and leave some free time, because video editing is not so easy task, as it may seem.
After editing, you need to send a video surprise to the birthday person. You can supplement it with some kind of distracting message to enhance the effect of surprise, or a beautiful text greeting.
Original quests
To make your birthday fun and the surprise itself a real adventure, you should pay attention to quests. You can contact a company specializing in organizing such events, or you can independently invent and implement something special.
For example, you might organize a little surprise trip. In this case, you will need to carefully think over all the details and organize the process, draw up a route for movement around the apartment or outside the home. It will be necessary to organize several intermediate points at which the birthday person can find notes with subsequent instructions. The final destination can be made as a place for a party, where everyone will gather to celebrate a birthday, or simply a room in which the gift is hidden. It all depends on the scale of such an idea.
It is quite possible to slightly complicate the process by supplementing the instructions with some simple and pleasant tasks for the birthday boy.
For example, for a girl, one of the tasks may be buying a stunning dress, and for a man - something corresponding to his hobbies. But you need to delicately select tasks, since not every person can appreciate such surprises at their true worth.
As for the rest of the quest options, you can use ready-made offers. For example, fans of horror movies will love this style of quests, while travelers will definitely love the options with elements of adventure. They will find their audience and detective stories, as well as quests related to chemistry and biology. The main thing is to choose the right one, taking into account the preferences of the birthday person, and make sure that all security measures are taken into account in the organization you have chosen.
Unexpected congratulations
To please a loved one even more on his birthday, you should take care of the effect of surprise, because it is always nice to spontaneously receive gifts and surprises. But when organizing such a congratulation, some peculiarities should be taken into account.
For example, a morning surprise with breakfast in bed, a bouquet of flowers, or an armful of balloons might work for a loved one, but might be inappropriate for friends and colleagues. And congratulations for parents in general should be especially warm, dedicated only to them, so in no case should you use any template options.
An excellent option for organizing an unexpected surprise for friends can be a cafe, in which it will be necessary to gather all the close people of the birthday person, having discussed with them the concept of the event, time, place and further actions in advance.
In order for the effect of surprise to be stronger, you can go for a trick, pretending that you are too busy, will not be able to attend the holiday, or do not remember the significant day. But it is important to do everything as delicately as possible so as not to offend the person.
In addition, you need to ensure that the unsuspecting birthday person also arrives at the appointed place by the designated time.
If your parents or loved one has an anniversary, you should think about organizing a large-scale holiday. Of course, it will not be possible to completely conceal the celebration of the round date, since the birthday person will also want to take part in the process, but something can still be kept secret. The main surprise of the evening can be made an unforgettable show with live music, unusual dances or magic tricks... To organize such a non-standard congratulation, it is better to contact the professionals.
For a colleague, an unexpected congratulation can be organized by gathering the whole team, picking up a suitable gift and handing it over at the height of the working day, when the person does not expect it at all.
Congratulations can be supplemented with pleasant words, flowers, poems, and even songs.
Other options
In addition to all the options listed, there are many more ways to organize birthday surprises. For example, you can turn on fantasy and write a song for the birthday boy. It will not be difficult for creative people to write poetry and an unpretentious melody, but if you do not have the ability to compose music, you can use the ready-made disadvantages of popular compositions by overlaying your text on them.
With your own hands it is really possible to make a delicious wall newspaper or a large-sized postcard. Such a surprise usually contains various sweets, small items of clothing, drinks in small packages, and much more.
Each product is attached to paper and a certain signature is made to each of them, reflecting the attitude of the congratulatory person to the birthday person. Usually these are pleasant words that characterize a person in the best way, or sincere congratulations with wishes.
A very romantic gesture can be drawing with paint or chalk on the asphalt under the windows of the birthday man, as well as a song with a guitar, if we are talking about a girl. But you should be careful, because not all neighbors are able to appreciate such a gesture.
If the birthday girl for some reason does not like flowers or has an allergic reaction to them, you can still please her with a beautiful bouquet, but not quite ordinary. Recently, bouquets of sweets, sausages, cheeses, dried fruits, and even nuts have been very popular.... This kind of gift will be not only beautiful, but also very tasty, which is good news.
But sometimes you shouldn't be too smart, because in some cases it is enough just to cook a delicious dinner and set the table beautifully, so that the holiday turns out to be sincere and memorable.
