Correct gifting etiquette's while gifting online New Year’s gifts


The season of gifting is almost upon us. With the New Year only a few weeks away, gifting and receiving gifts becomes the talk of the town. Right from gift shopping to ‘who got which gift from whom’ are topics that fill many an afternoon tea-party discussion. Practically everyone gifts a gift, and receives one in turn.

However, there are unwritten rules of gifting that not many are aware of. While these unwritten rules are mostly different for everyone, and are based on the interpretation of every individuals mind, they are essential to ensuring correct gifting.

Always keep the recipient in mind The first and foremost rule in gifting during the New Years is to keep the intended recipient in mind. Gifting does not mean one should impose their styles and personal choices on others. Thus, it is improper to gift any person something that the gifter likes. This is the biggest mistake most people make. A loved one can very well be happy with exotic flowers and a simple cake rather than a feeble attempt at gifting a piece of clothing that one thinks is the appropriate mode of fashion. Similarly, one should always keep in mind the age of the recipient. A good mood also matter, make them special with moments. Gifting a child a bouquet of flowers almost always goes unappreciated, at the same time, what sense would it make to gift an avid baker a cake?

Never gift to receive Gifting is an act that is selfless. It is improper to gift someone something in hopes of receiving a gift back! For example, never gift an expensive gift in hopes of getting an expensive gift back, at the same time, it is inappropriate to gift someone something less expensive just because that person has a history of gifting inexpensive gifts. That said, one should always remember to return the gesture when a gift is received.

Gifting according to culture While gifting, one should keep in mind cultural sensitivity. Not all cultures have the same gifting etiquettes. Gifting traditions should be kept in mind. It is always wiser to gift non-controversial gifts. The gifts available in the love n wishes are great options that can keep cultural idiosyncrasies in mind.
