Choosing gifts for the kitchen

The holiday season is approaching, many are probably "puzzling" what to give to family and friends. What to give to single people is not a question, but when it comes to family friends, you have to think. The “something for home” option is quite appropriate. In this article, we will talk about what practical gifts are suitable for the kitchen.

If we rely on the knowledge and superstitions of our ancestors, then only forks and spoons could not be brought in honor of the celebration, and the latter were long considered an excellent present, especially if it was not just a spoon, but painted or made of precious metal. But over time, the spoon was attributed to undesirable souvenirs, because they believed that if it was made with bad thoughts, then there would be a problem with food in the house. A spoon can be given only for the "first tooth" of a child, in other cases it is better to refrain from such a surprise.

If such items were handed over to you, then do not rush to argue with the donor or throw them in the trash, just buy off the present by giving some pretty penny, so it is believed that you will pay off from evil spirits.

An excellent present can be:

• sets;
• kitchen sets;
• cups;
• tureens;
• plates;
• mixers;
• aprons;
• various food processors.

But it's worth remembering that when buying such equipment, it is necessary to inspect the item for chips and other types of damage. Such cracks are believed to represent scandals.And if you present such a service to a person, then his life can radically change not for the better.

Everyone wants his surprise to be the most original and useful, so that the mistress of the house will definitely like it. In this case, it is worth paying attention to the presence of such utensils in people, they definitely do not need a second exactly the same unit. When choosing this machine, focus on its functionality and pay attention to:

• power (the higher the power, the less time it will take to cook);
• additional attachments (on their quantity and quality, here already focus on your budget and price-quality ratio);
• bowl capacity (Please note that the working volume of the bowl is less).

If you have definitely decided that a present for the kitchen should certainly be creative, but you think the dishes are too trivial a gift, you can remember that the best gift is one made with your own hands. What can you do with your own hands for the kitchen?

• Hot stand made of jute or dense rope, which can be a great addition to the interior.
• Organizer for the kitchen (stand for knives, forks, cans, boards), for its manufacture you can use a variety of materials - thick cardboard, wooden boxes, cans and much more.
• Topiary. Flowers and trees have always been an adornment of any home, but there is not always the time and desire to take care of them, then such a surprise will be to the liking of the person named. Topiary is a small hand-made tree for room decor.
• Tray... You might be wondering what's unusual here, the tray can be bought everywhere. But what if you make it more versatile and unusual? For example, a board-tray will save space in the kitchen and perform 2 functions at once.
• Much more using a wide variety of materials: toothpicks, stones, wine corks and even pasta.

When you have decided on a gift, purchased it or made it yourself, you need to figure out how to hand it over. It must be remembered that "they are greeted by their clothes." You can take the present to a place where they specialize in gift wrapping or do it yourself using wrapping paper, foil, or just a beautiful cardboard bag.

In addition to the gift wrapping made of foil, on which a photo of the hero of the occasion was glued, you can come up with tasks where you hid the gift, and in order to find it, you need to guess the riddle, complete the task. But it is worth remembering that if the person who accepts the gift is not a fan of such events, then it is worthwhile to come up with something else so as not to spoil the holiday and relations with each other.

If you have a handmade gift, then try not to use banal gift wrapping, but, for example, put a tray board in a beautiful bag and tie helium balloons to it. When choosing balls, you should take into account the identity you are going for and the interests of a particular person. If you decide to give an apron, then a creative presentation for an unmarried girl's birthday will be if she takes it off the donor herself.

Souvenirs for the kitchen can be arranged into a composition, for example, you can form swans from kitchen towels and pack them in a box, showing all your imagination. For people who know how to work with origami, more complex shapes can be made. Do creative work for your pleasure, and then your homemade souvenir will be the most original and interesting.

If the hero of the occasion is superstitious, then there is no need to present him with sharp objects - this can ruin the holiday. When choosing cookware, remember to check it for integrity. If your gift is made by hand, then try to make it look presentable. And remember that the pattern (if any), like the gift wrap, should match the celebration.
