Impression Gifts
Such gifts have become especially popular recently, when many began to prefer traveling, learning new skills and other impressions over buying some kind of material values. What to give a father-in-law for the New Year or, say, a birthday? A relatively young father-in-law who is interested in cars or racing will surely enjoy a go-kart certificate or a few extreme driving lessons. For those who wanted to become a pilot in childhood, a training flight on a plane or a Tu-134 flight simulator or a MiG fighter is suitable, an avid fisherman is catching predatory fish. You can present an invitation to a man for a tasting of whiskey, wine and cheese, a burger cooking lesson, a pottery master class, an evening in a restaurant with unlimited meat or an excursion to the base of your favorite football club.
Practical gifts
The necessary gift for the father-in-law is money that is not wasted. Cuddles that are pleasant and sweet to the heart, of course, are also needed (although mothers are usually more interested in this), but many practical people will prefer a present that is really useful in everyday life and will be used for good.
What to give a father-in-law? If the family often gets together for a delicious dinner, you can present the grill for the home. Electric heating elements in such devices heat volcanic stones so that they can cook fish, meat or vegetables without excess fat.
Surely a universal kit will be useful to any man, which will be needed on vacation, and on the road, and at home. Watches are another traditional, but quite appropriate gift for father-in-law for 60 years. One only needs to remember that the person to whom the watch is given must give the donor a coin. Then the bad omens associated with the watch will not come true. Amateur gardeners will be delighted with a set of tools, especially if such a set comes with a folding chair. In general, there are a lot of options.
Sweet memories
What to give father-in-law for New Year, for example? This is a family holiday, which is usually celebrated with relatives and friends. But young couples often like to attend parties and noisy festivities on this holiday, leaving their parents at home to sit with their grandchildren. Anyway, it is supposed to present at least a symbolic gift to relatives . You can remind your wife's parents about how they are loved and dear to children and grandchildren, giving something conditional, figuratively symbolizing care and attention.
A soft plaid is perfect in this case. In addition, it is an almost universal gift. Such a product can be bought at any price segment, and besides practicality, such a choice is also an opportunity to choose something really suitable, because a large assortment of rugs is available on the market. The most practical are acrylic and fleece products, which are not prone to the formation of pellets, allow air to pass through, quickly wash and dry, and are pleasant to the touch. Even better is to get a real, woolen blanket. It is better to dwell on dark shades.
What to give a father-in-law? A photo album made by yourself using the scrapbooking technique is suitable (already with photos of children and grandchildren, old friends and close people, with interesting signatures, pleasant little things and stories). A homemade tea set will also be a good present. Why not give a fragrant herbal collection, individually packaged in small bags with warm words? Labels can be made as a standard form, as well as hearts or clouds. The inscriptions can be very different: declarations of love, encouraging words, wishes for a good day and compliments.
Personalized gifts
What to give a father-in-law for a birthday? Named gifts are those that are intended for a particular recipient. So, you can present a beautiful cup or beer mug with the inscriptions “Papa No. 1”, “Papa is the best”, “The best father-in-law” for the wife’s father and “Golden father-in-law” for the husband’s father, a personalized Hollywood star made of ceramics, a flash card or engraved lighter, Oscar statuette, print T-shirt. A great idea is the Journey Through Memories poster with the most important photographs and kind words.
Technical News
Additional power sources for smartphones remain popular, a portable speaker system or an e-book is also useful. A good sound or video card, a USB hub, a card reader with several connectors, a gaming mouse, a steering wheel and pedals (only for fans of racing games), a removable hard drive - all these small technical gizmos are very useful and will surely like the test.
Addicted person
What to give a father-in-law? Presenting something related to a hobby of a loved one is a win-win option. Here it is only worth remembering that the fisherman does not need to give a new fishing rod at all, and the jack to the motorist. These are the main things that the father-in-law already has. But it would not hurt to think about a set of spinners or a spinning bag, a vacuum cleaner for a car, a mini-refrigerator or an automobile tent. By the way, the gardener will have seedlings and seeds, the culinary specialist will be delighted with a roll typewriter or a miniature smokehouse, and the intellectual will like a beautiful writing set or a rare edition of his beloved author.
Status Gifts
What to give a father-in-law if he is a wealthy and important person, company owner, director or leader? We need a present that emphasizes the status of a loved one. It can be an expensive business card holder or diary, a business bag, a man purse or a briefcase, handmade chess or a set of bronze figurines. Such things, of course, are best given if the father-in-law is an authoritative person for the giver. “Status” things are also suitable if the father-in-law is a businessman and rarely communicates with his daughter’s family, because then it’s hard to find out what a person really likes.
When the birthday boy has everything
What to choose as a presentation, if it seems that everything is useful and practical, and so it is, but you don’t want to give any “standard set”? To make an original gift, just make a little imagination and effort. You can make a portrait of the hero of the occasion for photography, a cartoon doll, collect family photos into one album, order a calendar that starts not from January 1, but from the day of the father-in-law's birthday. In addition to the main gift, you can make a greeting card, as well as bake a cake.
