When it comes to choosing the perfect gift, the best gifts are those which can be used for a long time to come. When choosing a gift, you may be trying to think of something which can extend a long time over the specific day it’s intended for, whether that’s a birthday, Christmas, or anniversary.
Here are 6 great gift ideas if you’re looking for more of a long term investment in joy!
1. Jewellery
Jewellery is a gift that can be enjoyed time and again. It can spark joy every time it is worn, and it can be continually worn for as long as it needs to be. Jewellery truly is a long-term gift investment, and it’s something that the recipient can enjoy and wear any time. To make it even more special, personalised or monogramed jewellery can create an even more special gift. It can be marked for occasions, and then worn for formal events, birthdays, and more.
2. Subscription Boxes
Subscription boxes are perfect gift ideas for the long-term because they’re simple and home-delivered, so the recipient doesn’t ever need to worry about going out and topping something up themselves. Subscription boxes can be best suited to the recipient’s needs or interests, whether you’re looking to find a book-related subscription for a literary lover, the best vape subscription for the vaper in your life, or a foodie subscription for those who love cooking.
No matter the interest or need, there will always be a relevant and easy subscription service for it!
3. Photo Albums or Scrapbooks
Treasured memories will always be the gifts that keep on giving, and having somewhere to display memories is the perfect gift. Albums and scrapbooks also offer the perfect opportunity for creating some new memories, which means enjoyment can be gained from this gift whenever a new photo opportunity is made and whenever new items can be included in the album. You can also create perfect photo books digitally. It makes for a great addition to any shelf and gives you the means to look through your favourite photos in their physical form in high quality.
4. Craft Supplies
If searching for a gift for the arty type, then craft supplies mean they can practice time and again and make something new whenever inspiration strikes. These supplies could be paint, a sewing machine, fabric, or notebooks.
5. Personal Classes
Investing in classes based on the interests of your recipient is a great long-term gift idea. Maybe it’s something new they’ve always wanted to try, or maybe it’s a skill set they’ve been looking to improve. You could think about any of the below class ideas, or more:
- Cooking classes
- Art classes
- Music classes
- Fitness classes or gym memberships
- Self-defence classes
Whatever their interests, a class subscription can be a great gift to support them with it.
6. Garden Essentials
If you have a green-fingered recipient on your hands, then anything for the garden is going to be appreciated. There are many flowers and plants which bloom again and again as the years roll by, or which look great all year round. Or, other garden features such as furniture or a water feature will be able to be placed long-term and enjoyed for years to come. You could even pay for a small fish pond to be installed!
