Customized Gifts are Great Tributes
Customized gifts are great tributes to people who are special in our lives and have earned the extra effort in making the gift personal. Who is one person in your life that you admire the most? Who has had the greatest influence on your life? When we go above and beyond our normal effort to find a way to say thank you, it feels more meaningful for the gift receiver.
When you Google “tribute,” it says it is “an act, statement, or gift that is intended to show gratitude, respect, or admiration.” We are praising someone we love and care about with something that is personalized, highlights their life, or focuses on what all good they have done to impact others. This is why customized gifts are great tributes to give to someone like this.
Here are some ideas of customized gifts that help give attention and appreciation to someone you care about. When was the last time you went out of your way to make someone feel special? How do you show someone that you hold them in high esteem or tell someone how valued they and their efforts are? Think about yourself. How do you feel when someone recognizes you and your work in a positive way? It makes us light up on the inside when we do good for others. We are also more motivated to keep doing whatever got us praised for in the first place, when we are acknowledged for it and it creates feelings of loyalty and bonding to the person who recognizes it.
Show recognition for those you love and appreciate because these customized gifts are great tributes. Say it with a photo or words. One of the best ways to do this is by making a time capsule about the life of your loved one (whether still living or not). What better way to pass on a legacy to the family of this loved one all the virtues, character traits, stories, mementos or memorabilia, heirloom items, and overall wisdom.
Using the “Any Occasion” DIY Time Capsule seen here, you can put any photos of your loved on on the outside of this tin, making a customized time capsule and great tribute. You can also have friends and family write on the outside of this DIY time capsule tin. Imagine a class at school signing the outside of it in remembrance or to thank a great teacher. Priceless. You can also paint on the outside or use your own artwork photos to put on the outside. The sky’s the limit for what you can do to decorate this DIY time capsule.
Then, fill this DIY time capsule with whatever you want to preserve that expresses who your loved one is, and how much they have impacted the world, making a lasting tribute. Have family and friends fill out a “Message to the Future” letter making predictions about where they see the loved one in the future or thanking the loved one for all the great memories and influence they have had on their life. What a great honor.
Check out this list of how you can use the DIY time capsule to make customized gifts that are great tributes for many different people and milestone moments in our lives. You can put customized gifts within the time capsule too, like monogrammed items, customized photo charms, drawings, etc.
