✨ Occasion Guide

A special way to show you’re thinking of them
In some cases you will know the recipient very well, in others you will know them less well. Coming up with a fitting surprise for your partner or best friend is often easy. But when it comes to surprising your neighbour or child’s teacher, it can be a bit more of a struggle. Not to worry, as you may have more insight into what they like and enjoy than you initially think! Perhaps your neighbour spends a lot of time in their garden? If so, they more than likely enjoy gardening and you can think of a surprise that has something to do with that. If your child’s teacher often wears purple, chances are she will love a gift that has the same colour. The fact that you’re taking the time to notice these things is a gift in itself, as it will make the recipient feel seen and appreciated.

Planning your surprise
If you’re really looking to surprise someone, it’s important to choose the right moment; the moment they would least expect. A birthday surprise is always great, but you could choose to go for a less expected moment. Perhaps a friend is picking up their new puppy this weekend, for example. If so, you could send them a little surprise for them and their new best friend. If a friend’s relationship has just ended, show them you’re there for them by surprising them with a gift set of things that will offer comfort and distraction, such as chocolate, a comfy blanket and a personalised wine glass; perfect for a night of Netflix.

When choosing your surprise moment, think about which events are impacting the recipient’s life and go from there.

Get your message across
A beautiful personal message is key when it comes to creating a great surprise. Let the recipient know why you’re so grateful for them and why you appreciate your relationship so much. A little thank you, or reason they’re on your mind. You can always choose to surprise someone without a reason, of course, but even then there will be something that has triggered the desire to surprise them at that moment, so tell them! Perhaps it’s just because they’re always there for you when you need them, always up for a laugh, or the best at taking care of your plants or pets if you need to be elsewhere. Whatever the reason, share your feelings!
