Classic personalised gifts in NZ

Photo gifts

It doesn’t get more personalised than a gift with personal photos. You can get so many things made with photos these days. Of course, there’s the canvas prints or photo blocks to display in a home. Then there’s traditional photo books if you’re able to put a bit of time and effort into creating one. There’s also things like a calendar, a mug, t-shirt, mouse pad, clocks. There are so many options – the hardest part is picking the photo! There’s lots of DIY options available online or you can pop into places like Harvey Norman for your photo gifts.

Engraved or monogrammed items

There are lots of items able to be engraved or monogrammed so you can really let your imagination run wild. Stationary is a great one that almost everyone needs. From workers to students and everyone in between, stationary is always great to have on hand (and personalised ones are extra special). You could even go for things like an engraved chopping board or a monogrammed robe or wallet. Whatever you can think of – it’s probably able to be engraved or embossed, so get your creative juices flowing.

Jewellery

Jewellery can be a very personal item to gift someone. While you often need to know their taste, there are some great personalised jewellery pieces where you can’t go wrong. Name necklaces, initial jewellery, birthstone jewellery or a piece which represents their zodiac or birth month are just a few of the personalised jewellery pieces available. Another way to make a jewellery gift even more personalised is with an engraving.

Keepsake Box

You can get boxes printed or engraved to make them personalised. A great way to make it even more unique to your giftee is to fill it with all their favourite things. If they love a drink or two you could include their favourite spirit, craft beers or wine. They might be a foodie so you could fill it with all their favourite treats. If you want something non perishable there’s always options to fill it with relaxing spa products like bath bombs, face masks, or even personal items like a letter or photos. Whatever they’re into, you’ll be able to find something personal to fill a keepsake box.

Scrabble Wall Art

A unique and personalised gift perfect for almost everyone is scrabble wall art. You can personalise the words to suit your giftee. Whether you want to create a design with their name, their families’ names, inspirational words or almost anything else you can think of. They look great in bedrooms or on display in the family lounge.
