How to Personalize Your Holiday Gifts
5 MINUTE READ
The holiday season is the most beautifully hectic time of the year, full of feasts, parties, traditions, and more than a little bit of chaos. It’s easy to lose track of your head, let alone keep track of your gift list. There are so many people we encounter on a daily basis who make a big difference in our lives and gift giving is one easy way to make sure they feel appreciated.
We realize that choosing what to buy or how to make a gift personal is not always easy. Silipint products are a great go-to gift. Not only are they easy to personalize for each special person in your life, but they're unbreakable, eco-friendly, and make life a little easier.
Here are a few accessory options to personalize your Silipint holiday gifts.
Coffee & Tea Lovers
Whether it’s hot or cold, everyone starts their morning with something, and our silicone cups are perfect for their sipping leisure. They safely hold hot and cold beverages and are microwave, freezer & dishwasher-safe. One better, they’re eco-friendly replacements to single-use paper, plastic and Styrofoam cups from coffee shops. So, whether you’re buying for your eco-warrior friends or just the person who is constantly on-the-go, these gift ideas will put a smile on their face!
- Silipint: Limited Edition Tumbler (available in 22oz or 16oz, the Cool Berry Crush Tumbler is a new tie dye and one-of-a-kind)
- Fill with: Gift card to a local coffee shop or fancy, aromatic tea bags, or a premium blend of coffee
- More buzz: Mini-bottle set of flavorings like caramel and hazelnut, travel honey pouches and a personalized stir stick
Party Hosts
Holiday parties will look different this year. Whether it be the parties are hosted online or have significantly reduced guest lists, or perhaps it's an outdoor scavenger hunt to ensure social distancing - either way, it'll be a lot of work. If someone is putting in the effort to bring people holiday cheer during this unique season - this is a great time to recognize them.
Normally, this would be a tough gift to try to figure out, but unbreakable silicone drinkware makes a great gift for the people who appreciate an easy cleanup. Not only can they toss their Silipint cups in the dishwasher and microwave, but they never have to worry about dropping and breaking glassware.
- Silipint: A set of 14oz Wine Glasses or 16oz Pint Glasses
- Pairs with: Bottle of wine or booze of choice
- Extra charm: Personal-sized decadent dessert or a sausage and cheese platter (these goodies are just for them to enjoy once their hosting shoes are off it’s time to relax)
Mailmen, Housekeepers, Butchers, Bakers, and the Candlestick Makers....
What we’re really trying to say about these people is that they’re the ones that come through for us on a regular basis without many thanks. Helping us wrap up last-minute roasts the day before a big dinner, delivering our packages for us during cold, winter storms, and they get our children to school safely. They deserve a little extra recognition, especially during the holidays.
