What to give for your birthday?

Each of us has ever been puzzled by the question of what to give for a birthday. And it doesn't matter if a loved one needs to be surprised or practically a stranger. A sea of ​​things has already been presented to relatives, and the tastes of unfamiliar people are a mystery. Don't worry, we will help you make the right choice and suggest a lot of fresh ideas for a birthday present.

When choosing a gift for one of the most important holidays, do not forget about all the nuances. First of all, you need to take into account the following factors and features of such a gift.

• The age of the recipient. Your surprise should correspond to the age category of the person to whom you are going to give the present. You should not hand over a stuffed toy the size of a chest of drawers to an adult over forty, and a leather wallet to a small child.
• Your financial capabilities. It is foolish to give something equal to two of your monthly salaries to a person who is not very close. Of course, the closest relatives can be worthy of such a grand gift and your efforts to save money for it. But a friend or work colleague will surely be embarrassed by such a gift and be puzzled by the selection of an equivalent surprise.
• The practicality of the gift. Not all people love figurines or pretty paintings. Get to know a person a little before buying them wonderful souvenirs.
