There’s nothing better than giving a gift and watching the recipient’s face light up. It’s better than receiving a gift ourselves! It’s a wonderful way to show how much we care and how much we think of our loved ones.
However, if you’re on a tight budget or you’ve simply run out of ideas, it can make the entire process incredibly stressful, quickly taking away the shine of the entire occasion.
Thankfully, choosing to share a sentimental gift will tick all the gift-giving boxes.
A sentimental token shows how much thought you’ve put into their gift and how much they mean to you, and even if you have a modest budget, it’s still achievable.
