Have you just given another sweater, appliance, or pair of socks as Christmas gifts to that man in your life? While getting a gift at all matters and is certainly appreciated, this way of gift-giving is mundane and actually boring and oftentimes lacks creativity and thought. So why not give experience gifts from Giftory instead? Here is why they are great.

They are Fun and Tailor-Made
The surprise and delight on someone’s face as they embark on a “Design Your Own Prosecco!” experience workshop! Allowing your giftee to create something distinctive is no small thing. It’s an experience where they can participate actively and remember you. If your friend loves the great outdoors, why not treat them to an exhilarating national park hike? Tailored experiences help create everlasting memories long after the infinite sales hoardings have faded.
They are Memorable
Think of all the random stuff piling up in your attic, basement, or garage that was a gift you could not bear to throw away but had no use for. That gentleman in your life probably has the same issue. However, they don’t have to worry about that with experience gifts. Think of visiting a stunning historical structure or enjoying the sights and sounds of a tour around a city your friend is passionate about. These memories will be etched in the giftee’s mind and can be shared with for years to come.
They Can Be Enjoyed Together
Experience gifts like going to a football game or diving will not soon be forgotten and will create shared joy and memories. Imagine sitting side-by-side in a pottery class and catching up while modeling clay pieces, and the laughs that will follow when one of you creates a blob that was supposed to be a vase — priceless!
They Will Make You the Best Giver
Let’s face it: no one wants to be a mediocre gift giver! Opting for personal experiences, such as a gourmet cooking or art class, is a meaningful gift that will likely always be remembered – and nit something other people have already received. So you will be awarded (cue drumroll) the best giver ever!
They Show You Know the Person
So, your friend wants to watch Blake Shelton on tour or some cool indie band coming to a town near them, and they have been talking about saving up for it for ages. And you come in like some fairy godmother/father and hand them the ticket for their birthday. Now, that is a gift that says you know them and have been listening and want them to be happy!
They Encourage Growth and Exploration
We all know that life is about personal growth, and what better way to spark progression in the people we love than with the gift of experiences? An art class for the aspiring Picasso, a cooking class for the soon-to-be celebrity chef — trying new things will open up a whole new world of possibilities and hidden talents and inspire confidence and joy!
The Perfect Way to Give Gifts
Personal experience gifts are a heartfelt solution to the age-old present. They are enjoyable, memorable, sustainable, and carefully crafted to fit a person’s unique personality and lifestyle. So, the next time you’re scrambling for the “perfect” gift, reach outside your box, maybe check out Giftory, and get creative with gifting an experience. Give the gift that keeps on giving, and you’ll be recognized as the official best giver in all the land – well, at the very least, in that loved one’s immediate circle.
