The Secret to a Gift They’ll Actually Keep (Hint: It’s Not Another Mug)

We’ve all been there. You open a gift, smile politely, and think… “What am I supposed to do with this?”

Let’s skip that moment.

Gifts should make people feel something—not just fill up a drawer. The best gifts get used, displayed, or tucked away in a memory box because they meant something.

So, how do you give a gift that actually sticks around?

1. Make it emotional.
When a gift says “I see you,” it hits different. A wooden medal that says "You’ve got this" after a tough season? That’s a keeper. Something that makes someone cry a little happy tear? That’s gold.

2. Make it personal.
It could be their name, a date, a quote, or an inside joke. The smallest touch makes a gift feel tailor-made. That’s why our cards, candles and medals are all designed to be personalised—because the details matter.

3. Make it usable or displayable.
Candles that scent a room and soothe the mind. Medals that hang from a shelf or mirror like a daily dose of encouragement. Cards that are too pretty (and too personal) to throw away. It’s about giving something they’ll want to interact with again and again.

So ditch the novelty mugs. Let’s give gifts that linger.
