Top 7 unusual gifts for the New Year

On New Year’s Eve you often want to give not something useful, but something that will be remembered, that will be associated with you and the New Year’s atmosphere. And despite the fact that every day there are new and unusual things or entertainment, it can be a challenge to find something suitable and unusual to give as a gift. Especially if a surprise is planned.

So specifically for such a request, we have compiled a list of gifts that are quite unusual and will definitely be remembered by the recipient of the gift.

Certificate to a pottery workshop

In the last couple of years, various workshops have started to appear actively, where everyone can try to make something out of wood, clay or sew with their own hands. There’s no end or edge to the master classes, so you don’t have to worry that something won’t work out. Going to a pottery workshop will appeal to both children and adults. It can be a great time with friends, family or your other half.

At the end of the fun process, there will be a plate or mug (or whatever your gift recipient decides to make) as a keepsake. And on top of that, if there’s a hard frost on New Year’s Eve, that’s no reason to stay at home. So +1 argument in favor of such a gift.

Wipeable Card

Does your friend/girlfriend, brother/sister or someone else love traveling? Then this is a great gift for the New Year if they don’t have one. You can find a map of the world if the traveler has global goals, or you can choose a pure map of Russia (or another country). Perhaps such a gift will motivate someone and encourage them to travel more or to start doing it at all. So, if you are going to give such a map, don’t forget to wish more bright and rich travels in the New Year.

Levitating lamp or flower pot

This gift looks extremely unusual, fresh and can fit into absolutely any interior. If the recipient loves plants, it’s easy to choose a flowerpot that floats in the air (the plant will love it and won’t do any harm). And if the recipient of the gift has no inclination to take care of house plants, you can give a levitating lamp. It looks cool and it’s useful.

New Year’s Eve vinyl record

Perhaps, if it’s not the most atmospheric New Year’s Eve gift, it’s one of them. This holiday has been accompanied by all sorts of New Year’s songs for years, and imagine how great it would be if those very same songs were played on a vinyl player?”

What a great gift.

There are plenty of options before you – Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, a collection of Christmas and New Year’s songs by Soviet, Russian or foreign artists.

A collection of Christmas and New Year’s songs by Soviet, Russian or foreign artists.

There’s a little nuance, though – if you don’t have a vinyl player, you’ll need to give it as a gift. On the other hand – what is not a gift?)

Candle/soap making kit

If going to a pottery studio or the idea of “getting out of the house on New Year’s Eve” doesn’t appeal to your gift recipient, a kit for creating soap or candles at home can be a great alternative. This is quite a fascinating process, which in addition to positive emotions will give a wonderful pastime and some material result of labor.

You can assemble such a set yourself, choosing, for example, some New Year’s candle/soap molds; New Year’s perfumes for a festive scent – tangerine, spruce, ginger cookies, etc.; ornaments and dye. Most likely your own set will be more expensive, but it will be individual and unique, which the recipient will appreciate.

Snapshot camera

A great gift that can capture all the highlights of your gift recipient’s life. A great option is the Fujifilm Instax mini 12. It’s not cheap, plus you have to buy photo cards, but it’s worth it. It’s a great gift for someone of any age, as long as they like to take photos a lot.

Certificate for a New Year’s photo session

And if the previous gift doesn’t seem particularly suitable for you, but you want to give New Year’s Eve memories that will stay with the recipient, then a New Year’s Eve photo shoot can be a cool option. Especially if you can choose a snowy day, an unusual setting or a snowy photo shoot on a horseback ride or with adorable huskies/ huskies, the gift will be 100% successful.
