Are you sick of generic Christmas gifts that you, your friends, and family give each other? Get creative and give each person on your list a unique Christmas present this holiday season. Think about each person?s personality and interests when choosing them.

1. Garden gloves and a plant. The avid gardener will appreciate this unique gift. Write a note regarding his/her garden and how you?ve realized the time and effort he/she must put into keeping it beautiful.

2. Locally made barbeque or steak sauce and basting brush. This is a unique gift for a man or woman who likes to cook out on the grill. Maybe he/she will invite you over for some good home cooking when the weather heats up.

3. Donation. Does the recipient love animals, religiously clean with green products, or visit the elderly at the local community center? Let him know that you appreciate his charity interests by making a donation in his name instead of giving something he might not use.

4. Towel warmer. If you want to give a gift of luxury to a friend or family member, give them a towel warmer for Christmas. Every time they hop out of the shower on a cold winter morning they will have a soft, warm towel ready for their use.

5. Hot dog and marshmallow cookout set. You can find one of these at Target for about thirty-four dollars. Give it to a friend that likes to cook out during the summer and make plans to have a cookout on the fourth of July. Use the marshmallow sticks in the fireplace to make s?mores until the spring.

6. Spa relaxation and sound machine. Want to give someone a day at the spa but can?t afford the five hundred dollar price tag? Give them a twenty dollar sound machine and bubble bath.

7. Books on tape. If you have a child or grandchild that you want to give a special gift, then find some books that you used to love as a child. Tape record yourself reading the books and then give them the tape and books to read along. Your child or grandchild can enjoy your favorite books even when you?re not there or available to read to them.

8. Homemade CDs. Put together a list of your favorite songs and download them onto CDs for friends and family to enjoy. Make themed CDs such as Christmas music or jams for New Year?s Eve.

9. Shopping spree. Give your mother, sister, or significant other a gift card and the day together. Help your family member pick out things they love while chatting about the holidays and plans for New Year?s resolutions.

Finding a unique gift really isnt that hard, just take one of the above and give it as a unique christmas present.
