Welcome to the feature where every fortnight we will explore different topics that are listed in the book A List A Day by Paperchase. They range from food, music and travel to really random topics so I thought it wold be a fun one to talk about throughout the year!

Today’s List: Gift Ideas

Sometimes it can be really difficult to come up with ideas for presents for people, well today I am going to look at a few ways in which I think is fun ways to come up with ideas for gifts for friends and family.

Homemade

This has to be the most personal way of giving a present as it is all made by you and then delivered to the person that it is for. It can take a lot of time but usually it is worth it. Scrapbooks of memories, video edits, photographs and even items that have been sewn or crafted as great little momentos.

Forgotten Sayings

My favourite app on a phone is the notes one because it comes in handy so much. One of the ways that I use this app is to take notes of gift ideas. Usually, well away from Christmas or even birthdays you can get into conversations with people where they will say something that they want, I take note of it. You can guarantee they will forget and then it will be a surprised with what it is and that you remembered.

Research

Another way of finding out what they want is by researching them – look at their social medias, the sort of thing they like and you may discover something.
