On the nose of the holiday season, many probably "puzzled", what to give to relatives and friends. What to give to single people is not a question, and when it comes to family friends, you have to think. The option "something for the house" is quite appropriate. In the article we will talk about what practical gifts are suitable for the kitchen.
Is it possible to give dishes?
If you rely on the knowledge and superstitions of our ancestors, then you couldn’t bring only forks and spoons in honor of the celebration, and the latter were long considered an excellent gift, especially if it was not just a spoon, but with a painting or made of precious metal. But over time, they also took the spoon to unwanted souvenirs, for they believed that if it was made with bad thoughts, then there would be a problem with food in the house. Spoon can be given only to the "first tooth" to the child, in other cases it is better to refrain from such a surprise.
As for the forks, they are the same as knives, needles and scissors associated with evil spirits, it is believed that she lives on sharp objects. Therefore, forks will bring quarrels to the family.
If such items are handed to you, then do not rush to swear with the donor or throw them in the trash, just pay off from the present, giving some kind of penny, so it is believed that you pay off from evil spirits.
An excellent gift can be:
- sets;
- kitchen sets;
- cups;
- tureens;
- plates;
- mixers;
- aprons;
- various food processors.
These gifts are perfect for any celebration, whether it's a birthday, anniversary, New Year or even a wedding.
But it is worth remembering that When purchasing such equipment, it is necessary to inspect the item for the absence of chips and other damage. It is believed that such cracks personify scandals. And if you present such a service to a person, then his life can drastically change for the worse.
How to choose a food processor for a gift?
Everyone wants his surprise to be the most original and useful, to be sure to please the hostess of the house. In this case, you should pay attention to the presence of similar utensils in people, the second exactly the same unit they just do not need. When choosing this unit, focus on its functionality and pay attention to:
- power (the higher the power, the less time it will take to prepare food);
- additional nozzles (on their quantity and quality, here you are already guided by your budget and price-performance ratio);
- bowl capacity (note that the working volume of the bowl is less).
Creative gift
If you have decided for sure that a gift for the kitchen should certainly be creative, but consider the dishes too banal, you can remember that the best gift is a handmade one. What can you do with your own hands for the kitchen?
- Hot Stand from jute or tight rope, which can be a great addition to the interior.
- Kitchen Organizer (stand for knives, forks, jars, boards), for its production you can use a variety of materials - thick cardboard, wooden boxes, tin cans and much more.
- Topiary. Flowers and trees have always been a decoration of any home, but there is not always time and the desire to care for them, then such a surprise will appeal to the imennik. Topiary - a small tree, made by hand for the decor of the room.
- Tray. You might think that there is something unusual, a tray can be bought everywhere.And what if it is made more universal and unusual? For example, a tray-tray will save space in the kitchen and perform 2 functions at once.
- Much more using a variety of materials: toothpicks, stones, wine corks and even pasta.
How to hand?
When you have decided on a gift, purchased it, or made it yourself, you need to figure out how to hand it. It must be remembered that "meet on clothes." You can take a gift to where they specialize in gift wrapping or do it yourself with the help of wrapping paper, foil, or just a beautiful cardboard bag.
If you want to effectively deliver, you can come up with various quests to unpack the prize.
In addition to the foil gift wrap, on which you have attached a photo of the hero of the occasion, 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 a 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 relationships with each other.
If you have a gift made by yourself, then try not to use banal gift packs, but, for example, put the board-tray in a beautiful bag and tie helium balloons to it. When choosing balls it is worth considering the identity to which you are going and the interests of a particular person. If you decide to give an apron, then the creative delivery for the birthday of an unmarried girl will be if she removes it from the donor herself.
Souvenirs for the kitchen can be arranged in a composition, for example, you can form swans out of kitchen towels and pack them in a box, displaying all your imagination. People who can work with origami can make more complex shapes. Be creative in your pleasure, and then your self-made souvenir will be the most original and interesting.
If the hero of the occasion is superstitious, then he does not need to present sharp objects - this can spoil the holiday. When choosing dishes remember that you need to check its integrity. If your gift will be made with your own hands, then try to make it look presentable. And remember that the pattern (if there is one), as well as the gift wrapping must correspond to the celebration.
