All people are different, and choosing original and interesting gifts for your loved ones and friends is not an easy task. I would like to please everyone so that it remains in their memory forever. You need to approach your choice responsibly and after thinking carefully, because only knowing that you have made every effort will you enjoy receiving the gift.
And to make your task easier, we have made a selection of things that you can give for the New Year.
1. Wooden construction set
Almost all of us had a construction set as a child. We could sit for hours and collect all sorts of strange things. We have grown up, and now it seems that all this was just child's play. But the designers have also matured. Completely unusual and unique ones have appeared - such that they will awaken in any person his little Kulibin, who is waiting in the wings at the back of his mind. We want to tell you about Ugears constructors.
Ugears are absolutely amazing wooden construction toys. No glue or plastic - all materials are exclusively natural, but this is not the most interesting thing. Look at the model of the locomotive with tender. If you thought that there were 20-30 parts in it, then you were mistaken by an order of magnitude. The locomotive is assembled from more than 400 parts, and it will take more than 10 hours. And most importantly, all its parts, gears, wheels and internal mechanisms are set in motion! Yes, yes, he can ride on rails! This amazing engineering idea has been in development for several months and will delight anyone who is not indifferent to designers.
So if you have such a friend, then you can give him not just a beautiful example of 20th century industry, but dozens of hours spent assembling this cool model. But Ugears didn't limit itself to the idea of a locomotive - in addition to it, you can purchase a crossing and a platform to create a real railway station on the table!
2. Brutal mug
Nobody needs ordinary mugs; ordinary mugs are a vulgar and cheap gift, even if they cost a fortune. But we found you two brutal mugs that you will like even if you have never heard anything about a game like World of Warcraft. But what planet are you from if you haven’t heard anything about this game? For us, WoW is memories from our early youth, when there was no online game yet, but there was a cool campaign for the orcs “Invasion on Kalimdor” or an equally kosher campaign “Path of the Damned”, where you had to stand at the head of dead guys led by death knight Arthas.
How does this relate to circles? Directly. They all come from the legendary gaming universe. One mug is an exact replica of the vessel that was featured in the official Warlords of Draenor expansion video. It is supposedly made of tusk, and according to legend, it is also washed in blood. The mug belonged to one of the iconic WoW characters - the orc warlock Gul'dan. The second mug was shown in the game video that was released for the Pandaria expansion - there were also pandas there. The mug is called “Moguschan”, and it is very reminiscent of traditional German beer mugs, but the style is noticeably different, which gives the mug a unique and peculiar chic. But don’t be afraid of our perverted conversations that exude nostalgia - the mugs are quite functional and good even for ignorant people. You can give to anyone.
3. Wristwatch
Okay, you think that wristwatches lost their relevance as soon as the smartphone appeared. In response to this, we will laugh and tell you why you should give a wristwatch at all, but you should give them - this is one of the significant gifts in the life of every man.
So, a wristwatch, as you yourself understand, is not only a necessary thing in everyday life. We can actually find out the time by phone, although to do this we have to take off our gloves, unbutton our jacket, take out the phone, turn it on and only then look. But that's not the point. We agree that there is less practical sense in wristwatches now than before. But today the wristwatch is becoming a much more important symbol than ever before. A person wearing a wristwatch exudes confidence, business acumen and stability. You look at his watch and, if he made the right choice, you understand that he holds the world by the gills - he can afford to live as he pleases.
In a sense, a wristwatch gives your image strength and individuality, it makes you more significant and makes you relate to time differently. When you feel with your own hands how time moves the hands, then you understand that you need to act and not wait at sea for the weather. But such deep sensations are created only if a person has a high-quality watch, and not some cheap market watch that will break in three days. There are many quality brands, but most of them are not cheap. However, there are collections that are quite reasonable in price (price range from 4,000 to 30,000 rubles) and quality - for example, CASIO Edifice.
4. Portable grill
You know us, we cannot live without a piece of meat that is made according to all the canons of men's cuisine - simple, tasty and nutritious. We cook every week and often do it on a regular stove, but each of us understands that the most delicious meat comes out on the grill. This is true. There are so many options for grilling meat. A lot depends on skill, but the grill is the kind of thing that spares beginners from cooking. So gifting someone a grill for the holidays is a great idea.
But just be reasonable. If you give a huge colossus that there is nowhere to put in an average city apartment, then they will not be happy with your gift. Therefore, choose a portable grill that does not lose quality, but gains a lot in functionality. You can easily fold it and take it with you to the park, on the road, or out into the yard. A portable grill is a chic solution for any meat eater who is stuck in the city but wants to be in nature. Everyone will be happy with such a gift, even a student in a dormitory - the grill is really compact. Of course, all of this is true for the gas grill we found on the O-Grill website.
5. Acoustic guitar
Real music starts with a guitar, and the most functional guitar is, of course, a good old acoustic. You may not be able to connect it to the roaring sound of Rob Zombie, but you can take it with you on a hike or, for example, to visit a friend. To start playing acoustically, you only need acoustics. No amps, pedals or picks. You just take your fingers in your hands and hit the strings with them, and then everything depends on your zeal and talent.
That's why we think that giving an acoustic guitar for the New Year is a first-class idea. The person who picks up your gift will be shocked by the possibilities that open up before him. Perhaps the guitar will change his life, as it has done for hundreds of people around the world. But even if she just gives him pleasure, then that’s good. If a friend already has an acoustic system, then you can give him a ukulele - it is quite small, but not at all like a toy. The ukulele can also play top-notch songs. It is better to buy a ukulele or acoustics in one place, so as not to go far and be sure of the quality of the goods - this place is called the musical hypermarket JAZZ-SHOP.RU.
6. Edible Planet
Do you remember the ending of the movie Man in Black? Its essence is that the camera is carried away from our planet beyond the solar system, further and further, and in the end it turns out that our entire galaxy is enclosed in a ball, which is played by some creature. Makes me think. Let's hope that alien monster doesn't use the balls in other, more perverted ways. But what are we talking about? Have you ever wanted to eat the planet?
It’s unlikely that such an idea would have occurred to you or your friends, because it’s absurd! The guys from Vintage-Space don't think so. They make some pretty darn cool gifts for those with a sweet tooth - edible planets! It sounds cool, but it looks even cooler - it's the good old lollipop, but not the simple one. The lollipops are made by hand, which makes them look very juicy and realistic. The delicacy is sold in the form of a set of 10 lollipops, which includes not only planets, but also the Sun, Moon and even the Galaxy! All this is packaged in a presentable box, which can be given to a whole company or to a friend who is partial to sweets.
7. Perfumery
If you want to save money on perfume and buy suspicious bottles on the Internet to please a girl, then you are taking a big risk. It’s very difficult to choose a good perfume if you haven’t smelled it, and they can mix in anything. But there is one big fat “but” - if the store has been verified by your friends from BroDude, then you can trust it. We are talking about the luxury and selective perfume store Perfume For Me - it is distinguished not only by its excellent selection of exceptionally good perfumes, but also by its price, as well as a 100% quality guarantee.
The store itself is not easy. In it you will not find mass-produced and boring smells, but you will meet representatives of selective perfumery, which is created by the elite of the perfume world with a rich history and an inhuman passion for fragrances. That is, such perfumery is something completely shocking and unique. If you want your friend to have an individual scent, then buy perfume from them.
8. Electric scooter
An electric scooter is one of the most convenient means of transportation in the city. You won’t have to sit in traffic jams, it’s easy to get around crowds of people. The scooter can be put in a carrying bag, or you can simply carry it with you in your hands if you suddenly want to use public transport. In some cities, where people know what real traffic jams are, there is nowhere without such wheels. Therefore, if among your friends there are girls or boys who are constantly late for work, then give them a scooter - a scooter is more convenient to store and transport than bicycles, and it’s easier to ride them than a skateboard. The battery lasts a long time and they are easy to charge.
By the way, if your friends, relatives or colleagues have children who will have to give gifts, then buy them a scooter - they will go crazy with happiness, and you will enlist the support of the parent. We would have wanted a scooter like this if we were 12, but no one gave us one, which is sad. We buy them, of course, only in specialized stores - such as Electric Bicycle.
9. Tea
There are people who are simply crazy about tea and do not accept any other drinks. It is not surprising if we remember that this is one of the few things that have reached our time through millennia and remained unchanged. Only the scale has changed, and in most cases we drink ordinary tea, which is already several months old, which in no way corresponds to the ancient tea ceremony. But we found a company that follows traditions and can please connoisseurs of real tea.
The fact is that tea loses its unique properties over time, and this period is very short. So the rule “good tea is fresh tea” applies here. This is exactly what you can buy at the Vahdam Teas store. All teas are collected and packaged by hand on the best plantations in India and Nepal, and from the moment the leaves are cut until the company receives it, no more than 2 days pass. The Vahdam Teas approach made it possible to deliver tea directly to the cup, bypassing intermediaries and in the shortest possible time. So if you want to surprise one of your friends or loved ones and introduce them to tea that was previously available only to the elite, this is a win-win option.
For the New Year, a tea lover can be given one of the exclusive gift sets, for example, “Santa's Treasure” or a set of tea in teapots. The assortment also includes types that you have probably never heard of: Darjeeling tea, which is called “tea champagne”; Assam tea, which has absorbed the power of the Himalayas; the beautiful Nilgiri, collected from the slopes of the Blue Mountains in southern India; and unique signature blends of tea with spices - the so-called Masala tea, which will give you strength for the whole day! Delivery to Russia takes about 20 days, so it’s time to say hello to the tea pickers and order one of the sets as a gift.
10. Exclusive iPhone
It is worth recognizing that the apple company’s products are unique. But now even schoolchildren have iPhones, making these smartphones commonplace.
Various cases, although they add a pinch of individuality, hide the design for which many people buy a smartphone. A kind of vicious circle from which there is only one way to get out - to modify the iPhone.
It is definitely not worth decorating it with felt-tip pens or scratching initials on it with a nail. It’s better to contact the guys from iLoveiPhone, who do this professionally. What can they do? Yes, almost everything that comes to your mind. The workshop has a dozen different techniques for transforming an Apple smartphone: airbrushing, leather wrapping, engraving, gold plating and even luminous logos! And instead of cases, you will be offered to replace the iPhone case with a colored one - this is the most inexpensive type of modding, but no less impressive. In addition, the guys make exclusive and individual orders using precious stones and rare types of leather - such iPhone modifications are ordered from them by large corporations and people who value exclusivity and individuality.
So if your girlfriend is still without a smartphone, then run to the store, buy it and give it to the reliable hands of the craftsmen, where they will turn an ordinary iPhone into a unique one.
11. Humidor
If you have a friend who loves cigars, but complains about his “humidor”, and you can’t understand what it is (you think the word is related to sex), then this means only one thing - you need to buy a humidor. This statement is also true for those who want to give their colleagues, friends or boss a set of cigars. Just as you need a home, a cigar needs a home. After all, a humidor is a small (and sometimes large) cabinet for cigars, where the ideal cigar temperature and humidity are built. Without such a “cabinet” you won’t be able to store cigars for a long time - they can become damp, or, on the contrary, dry out. What cigar lover would want to cough up dried tobacco leaves? Cigars require care.
So buy a humidor. This is not just a beautiful trinket - it really brings benefits to its owner, and significant ones at that. Humidors, of course, differ greatly in price. Base your choice on the cigar collection of your friend or colleague. If he has a big one, then he doesn’t need a small humidor, but if it’s small, then you can look at budget options.
Florentine sachet is a natural flavoring based on beeswax and essential oils. Beeswax perfectly preserves aromas and is not lost in the sachet. It gives warmth, smells of summer, sun, field and herbs.
Why use wax sachets?
A great way to scent your laundry in your closet.
If you place an aromatic tile somewhere in the room, you will feel a slight smell of essential oils and wax throughout the room
Florentine sachet can be used as a Christmas tree decoration
By choosing an invigorating composition of essential oils and placing the sachet on your desktop, you will receive a source of good mood and performance
An aromatic tile with soothing ethers at the head of the bed will help you quickly relax and fall asleep peacefully.
This sachet looks interesting in the car instead of artificial flavoring
We will need natural beeswax, sachet filler and essential oils.
The filler for the sachet can be dried flowers and herbs, petals and seeds, spices (cloves, cinnamon, star anise), pine needles, citrus zest.
There is no need to buy sachet molds. These can be silicone molds for cookies and cupcakes, there can be lids from tin jars and even plastic mugs.
Manufacturing technology
1. Melt the beeswax in a water bath. To do this, place a small enamel mug or bowl of wax in a saucepan with water. The wax will melt faster if you grate it or try to grind it as much as possible. While the wax is melting, feel free to inhale the aroma of natural beeswax - this is an excellent inhalation for the prevention and treatment of inflammation of the upper respiratory tract.
2. Once the wax is completely melted, remove the bowl from the water bath and pour the wax into the mold in a thin layer (about 0.5-1 cm).
To prevent the dishes from spoiling, while the remaining wax in the bowl is still warm, wipe the dishes, collecting all the wax, with a napkin. The rest will not be difficult to wash off with water.
3. While the wax has not hardened, add dried flowers, spices or dry fruits according to your taste and desire.
4. Don't forget to add a drop of essential oils. The combination of pine essential oils, orange/tangerine and cinnamon will create a festive mood in the room.
5. Place a cocktail tube into the uncured wax and hold it until the wax “sets.” This is necessary so that the finished tile has a neat round hole into which you can thread the ribbon. Leave the wax mold on a flat surface until it hardens.
6. To quickly and without damage remove the sachet from the mold, place the mold in the freezer for 20 minutes. After the time has passed, remove the sachet from the mold.
How to pack a gift
It will be beautiful if you pack the finished sachet in a bag or wrap it in wrapping paper. Place the sachet in a beautiful box - you will get an exquisite original gift.
The wax sachet will retain the aroma of essential oils for 2 to 4 months. Then the warm smell of wax will remain for a long time. You can drop a little of your favorite scent onto the surface and extend the time you enjoy the unusual flavor.
Such a tile can be melted and, after changing the filler and essential oils, cast again. And this can be done many times.
Let someone lazy say that attention is more important than a gift, but on New Year’s Eve everyone is looking forward to the surprise under the Christmas tree. And it doesn’t matter that your husband is a respectable business man, your friend runs her own company, and your mother’s life experience is enough for three more - for a second we all turn into happy children, receiving a New Year’s gift. Therefore, try to please your loved ones with something unusual.
The pig is a symbol of luxury and wealth. She loves everything that is practical, expensive, beautiful and brings joy. It is not necessary to spend your last money on an expensive gift; it is enough that it is useful and of high quality.

New Year gift ideas for male colleagues
Usually in a team it is customary to make small gifts, no matter how closely you communicate with the person. And if it’s easier for a good friend to choose a gift based on his interests and hobbies, then the task what to give to colleagues for New Year 2020 sometimes it seems overwhelming.

What to give to loved ones for New Year 2020
The next stage is to prepare pleasant surprises for family members. You may not see some of them on New Year's Eve, but that's no reason to get by with a box of chocolates. Take our ideas and surprise your loved ones.
What is unusual to please the most needed people in the world? The cost of the gift, and often its practical value, is not at all important to them. With age comes awareness of moral values, therefore, when deciding what to give your family for New Year 2020, try to move away from a gift-thing in the usual sense. The following gifts are much better suited.
Gift ideas for mom and dad
photo albums with photos that are not in the family archive;
collection of favorite films;
a board game for a large number of players that will bring the whole family together for one activity;
tickets to a movie, concert, circus or dolphinarium;
drive.
Of course, you can present household appliances, household items, and personal care products - but they will not replace real emotions. Therefore, it would be ideal to give the parents a joint emotional gift, and then please each one separately with a more “down-to-earth” surprise.
For example, to understand what to give your mother for New Year 2020, carefully find out what cosmetics she needs or what household appliances she has been dreaming of for several years. Act smart: start this conversation a couple of months before the holiday so that she doesn’t guess anything.
Gift ideas for sister
If you can give your brother any item from our list of gifts for your husband, then the question is what to give your sister for New Year 2020 at the same time necessary, beautiful and original often leads to a dead end. Especially if you have had your own families for a long time, but your interests do not intersect much.
To avoid getting into trouble, bet on “eternal values”:
Jewelry;
household appliances;
certificates for home goods stores;
certificates for lingerie, clothing or cosmetics stores.
Gift ideas for grandmother, mother-in-law
For distant relatives, save not so much gifts as attention. You are bound by family ties, not interests or hobbies, so don’t try to guess with some narrowly focused gift. How can you find out what to give your mother-in-law for New Year 2020, if you communicate with her only occasionally? Or what to give to your grandmother?
For such delicate cases, it is better to choose universal “female” gifts:
for kitchen: napkin holder, multi-tiered stand for candies and fruits, a set of containers for bulk products, original potholders;
self care: shower gel, gift soap, universal creams;
beautiful textiles: towel, blanket, bed linen, tablecloth;
fresh flowers in pots;
panels, paintings, embroidery.
Gift ideas for friends
Since you know these people from “A” to “Z”, problems like panic what to give friends for New Year 2020 there shouldn't be. Remember their hobbies, casually dropped phrases, dreams and give them an awesome gift. And if finances do not allow you to implement too bold ideas, you can get by with a cool surprise.
Here is a list of answers to the question of what to give a friend for New Year 2020:
anti-stress coloring book;
a pendant with an image of a zodiac sign or a beautiful pendant;
sweet gifts: bouquet of sweets, personalized chocolate, gingerbread house;
subscription to a beauty salon;
costume jewelry;
everything that will help you survive the cold: soft pajamas, a thermal mug, a blanket, a fur hat, cool mittens.
And finally, a small list of unwanted gifts:
figurines of angels, zodiac signs, etc.;
watch;
knives;
perfume (if you don’t know the recipient’s tastes 100%);
money;
clothes (suitable only as a gift for those closest to you);
gifts hinting at a person’s health or financial situation;
any items of poor quality purchased at a discount.
Try to give fewer banal gifts, unnecessary and impractical things, meaningless figurines and piggy banks. Spare no money, time and effort to please your loved ones with pleasant surprises for the New Year 2020. But don’t forget – the best gift will be your attention, care and love.
Have you already chosen what to give to your family and friends for the New Year? If this question still remains unanswered, take a look at online gift stores - you will be surprised how many cool things you can find in their catalogs if you look hard enough. So that you are not distracted by a banal assortment like soft toys or worthless souvenirs, we have prepared a selection of 30 unusual and cool gifts.
It would be too much of a hassle to search through all the online stores, so we took one of them - the online gift store E-xpedition - and found a bunch of cool gifts in its holiday assortment.
1.
A warm microplush blanket can be given to a person of any age and gender. One will find it more comfortable and warmer to play on a tablet, another will knit socks for his beloved grandchildren.
2. Animal hat for those who love animals
Animal hat "Husky" This hat is made of faux fur, although you can't tell by looking at it. A great gift for a girl who is crazy about huskies and all cats and dogs in general. It warms not only your head, but also your hands.
3. 3D lamps “imprinted” into the wall
3D Iron Man lamp These lamps seemed to crash into the wall and break through it. Moreover, some of them, like a soccer ball or Thor's hammer, crashed inside the room, while others - the Iron Man mask, the Hulk's fist or the front part of a yellow car - were clearly outside.
A wall sticker imitating cracks is sold along with the lamp. A great gift for a child, or for a family with children, or for adults who like superheroes and unusual lamps.
4. Wireless mouse in the shape of a silver BMW i8
If your boyfriend or girlfriend is crazy about this car, a wireless mouse in the shape of your favorite model will be an excellent reminder of it and a visualization for making your wishes come true.
You definitely can’t do without a cool speech before handing over such a machine.
5. Aprons with a New Year's theme
If the person to whom the gift is intended often cooks and loves this activity, you can give an apron with a New Year's theme - Santa Claus and the more than erotic Snow Maiden.
The main thing is that it doesn’t look like a hint that it’s time to go to the stove.
6. Arctic Force Snow Blaster
One could say that this is a gift for children, but playing snowballs is fun for all ages, which can be played with equal pleasure and excitement at 10, 20, and 30 years old.
The Snow Blaster makes perfectly shaped snowballs that no longer need to be sculpted, and launches them using the conventional slingshot method.
Arm a company of at least three people with these, and the New Year will be very active and fun.
7. Gift baskets and parcels
In these baskets and parcels you won’t find banal “Raphaels” and bottles of champagne - everything here is real, in the literal sense of the word.
If there are chocolates, then they are made with honey and natural ingredients. If there are tea infusions, then they are real, with taiga herbs that give vigor and strength.
Moreover, in different parcels and baskets there are different gifts: there may be venison chips, stew, jam, and “the biggest candy of success.”
It's all coolly decorated, without vulgar colorful pictures, mostly using brown wrapping paper.
In today's gift industry, which is choked with bright colors and artificial products, such gift baskets are perceived as really cool.
8. Whiskey stones in gift wrapping
I think now there is no need to explain to anyone what whiskey stones are. The most important thing about these Schotland gift stones is the classy gift packaging, which makes them look truly elite.
9. Whiskey stones in different packaging
Another whiskey stones, this time gray and in gray packaging. Nine smooth stone cubes are held in a well-designed box with magnets.
10. Illuminated whiskey glass
These glasses light up at the touch of your hand and glow in different colors. It looks very festive and eliminates annoying confusion like: “Where is my glass?”, “Is this really my glass?”
You will recognize your glass by the color of the backlight - both in the light and in the dark.
11. Non-spillable thermal mugs No. 1
Thanks to a special system, car thermal mugs will never spill their contents on you. Mugs from the Contigo brand maintain the desired temperature of the drink for up to five hours and delight with a stylish design. A great gift for those who are often on the road.
12.
This gun and bullet are very similar to the real thing, but made from delicious natural chocolate. If your friend or relative is crazy about guns, why not give them an “endorphin boost.”
13. Toolbox
It will be fun to give a girl or guy who has never held anything heavier than a computer mouse in his hands an adjustable wrench, a hook, a gear and pliers.
The main thing is that this person loves chocolate, because all the instruments are made from it, although they look exactly like the real thing. And that moment when your loved one has not yet understood what’s what is priceless.
14. Down slippers
If you know that your friends or family have cold floors in their apartment, give them super warm slippers filled with down and feathers. Again, a universal gift for any age.
15. Suitcase-scooter for creative travelers
Ride like a breeze through the city streets to the airport or train station, ride a scooter around the waiting room, catching the envious glances of children - the scooter suitcase easily unfolds and provides a fun time during the moving process. A cool gift for those who are always on the go.
16. Custard cup with an unusual bottom
The “double” bottom of this cup makes it easy to brew loose leaf tea and drink it without straining. When you need to brew tea, tea leaves are poured into a smaller container, and boiling water is poured into a larger water container, after which the cup is rolled over to one side.
When the tea has brewed sufficiently, you can turn the cup over to the other side of the bottom and drink the tea slowly without becoming too strong. An original gift for connoisseurs of loose leaf tea.
17. Serious reward for merit
The Oscar statuette, a copy of one of the oldest and most famous film awards, simply cannot be awarded without a solemn speech.
Moreover, you can come up with a variety of merits - from real achievements to ridiculous assigned statuses.
18.
A simple soft toy will only please a child or a soft toy collector. But such a bear with a secret inside will be an excellent gift for any friend.
There is a lock on the bear's neck that opens a secret pocket. You can put any additional gift in this secret pocket. This will be a real surprise for your friend or relative, and he can then use the bear for his secrets and stashes.
19. For lovers of barbecue
The “Caucasus” set, made in Russia, is for those who adore kebabs, love to cook them, spend time in nature and put everything on the shelves.
One gift box contains skewers, a knife and an ax in cases, shot glasses and a flask.
20.
This gift will be useful for both travelers and those who love hiking. The 11,000 mAh battery is enough for eight full iPhone charges and three iPad charges. Two ports allow you to charge two devices simultaneously. This miracle cobblestone weighs less than 200 grams and takes up almost no space in your backpack.
21. Hats made of natural coyote and bluefrost fur
This gift is best chosen for those closest to you. No, not because you necessarily need to know the size of the hat - both the Esther earflaps and the Hephaestus model have special drawstrings to adjust the size.
It’s just that with close people you definitely won’t be mistaken about their tastes in choosing hats and you’re less likely to hear something like: “This is real fur! What a nightmare! Poor little animals!
Well, in general, earflaps are an ideal hat for Russian frosts, especially since the winter is expected to be cold.
22. Hoodie for sofa Jedi
A Jedi robe is a cool gift in itself, and if it’s also a comfortable robe for the house, that’s great.
23. LED attachments for bicycles
Yes, now is not the season for bicycles, but if your friend loves to ride a bike and stays on it all summer, then why not give him something for his two-wheeled pet?
LED bicycle attachments create up to 11 images on wheels, are protected from moisture and have a built-in speedometer.
With such attachments, any bike will look cool, and in the dark it will be safer to ride on the highway.
24. Brutal jewelry for a man
Jewelry from the Spartam collection in the spirit of minimalism looks as if it was restored according to models of ancient jewelry.
Leather and steel - what could be more brutal? At the same time, there is enough variety: a sea of interchangeable beads for bracelets, change them at least every day.
25. “Enjoy your steam!” - men's bath set in a gift bag
This is a great gift for those who often visit the bathhouse or sauna. The set contains everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable trip to the bathhouse.
26. Magnetic board for the refrigerator
Nowadays, all notes and reminders are made on smartphones, even stickers are already disappearing from our lives.
A magnetic board on the refrigerator is nostalgic for real objects and a cool addition to the kitchen interior.
You can write reminders and messages to your loved ones on it, or just arm yourself with colored crayons and wish your loved ones good morning.
For example, you can buy a winter bandana scarf with a 50% discount or order Ellehammer bags, backpacks and suitcases for three days with a 50% discount using the same promotional code as the 3D lamps: HAPPYSALE2015.
There are also gifts for purchases made at E-xpedition. For example, if you bought something on the website, you received an invitation to the New Year’s party at the Expedition creative park and a discount of 215 rubles at the Rosinter restaurant chain. In general, you get the idea.
That's all. I hope you liked some of these gifts, and you still have time to order them and receive them before the New Year.
Happy bright holidays and more unusual gifts!
Continuation of the bestseller with inspiring stories about how to change your life for the better.
The series “100 Ways to Change Your Life” was born from the column of the same name by Larisa Parfentyeva on the website of the publishing house Mann, Ivanov and Ferber. Having just appeared, this section caused a lot of responses. People began to write about how different stories helped them move forward.
The first book in the series has already become a bestseller. For your attention - Larisa's second book with new inspiring stories, author's techniques and a solid dose of motivation to dramatically change your life for the better.
Among the tools you will learn about:
- Highway of change. The author's concept is a path of 4 segments that anyone who decides to turn their life 180 degrees goes through. It answers two main questions: “Where to start?” and “How to move to a new level?”
- Wheel of Vocation. An interesting diagram that helps you understand whether you are going there. This is a tool that clearly shows in which business you will feel in your place. The author of the book has been working on this technique for the last 3 years.
- The era of accumulation. This chapter is for those who are stuck at one level and cannot move. The Five Points system awaits you, which will allow you to finally turn from a “friend of the main character” into the main character. Believe me: you have already “accumulated” enough to become the main one.
After the release of the first part of the book, several hundred reviews appeared online. Most of them began like this: “I would never have bought a book with this title if [name of some authoritative critic/blogger/friend] hadn’t recommended it.”
So if you don't know anything about the 100 Ways to Change Your Life series, don't be put off by the pretentious title. I promise: I will name the next book so that no one suspects me of pathos and “vanilla.” For example, “Pasta, boards, Salvador Dali.”
And now you have in your hands an unusual book, despite the title. To create the two parts of 100 Ways, I read over 1,000 books. I mixed the best ideas, techniques, thoughts and quotes in my head, flavored them with stories of real people, added soul, heart, irony, healthy self-criticism and put them on these pages. As one girl wrote in a review: “This book replaces hundreds of books on self-development.”
At the same time, on these pages you will find many author’s works (others would stretch each of them into a whole book) that you will not find anywhere else.
The book can be read from any page. Of course, thanks to it you will not become rich, famous and successful in a second. You may not even learn anything fundamentally new.
The power of the book is that it quietly puts you in a state of inspiration, insight and the desire to immediately move towards the realization of your great plans. As one reader wrote: “The pages are programmed to inevitably elevate your mood, a sense of self-worth and self-confidence.”
Who is this book for?
This is a book for fans of Larisa Parfentyeva’s work and readers of her first book.
And for everyone who wants to improve their life and become happier.
