When you want to give, you want your gift to be special, but we often have those on our lists who are difficult to buy for. The reasons for this dilemma are many: it seems that some people already have everything; it seems that over the years we've already given them everything; the gift is for someone we don't know well enough to decide what is suitable, and so on.
If you are at a loss, suffering from what an author would call "writer's block", consider collectable figurines. These lovely works of art are most assuredly for 'non-collectors' too for after all, the true appreciation of a figurine is in the emotion it evokes. The selection available runs the gamut, and while a particular figurine may have universal appeal, it can make for a very personal gift due to influences such as your relationship to the recipient and his or her personality and life experiences.
With a little thought, you can find the perfect collectable figurines gifts for everyone on your list. Do you wish to express romantic love, friendship, appreciation, comfort, joy, encouragement, or support? Your choice will depend on the receiver and what you know will be most meaningful to that person. Or you might wish to choose a figurine that makes a statement about his or her personal passion, cause, beliefs, or current life circumstances. Perhaps you'd just like something to inspire smiles or laughter. Look around, and you may even happen upon a figurine that represents a private joke between giver and receiver.
Of course, only you know the personalities of those on your gift list this year, but here are a few ideas to help get you started:
- Co-Worker Gift (or office party) - When circumstances require that a gift not be "too personal", a good choice is a figurine that expresses a universal sentiment such as the Jim Shore Christmas "Lion and Lamb" figurine. Both its exquisite design and message of "Peace and Love" make this figurine suitable for display year-round. On the lighter side, Jim Shore also offers the beautifully hand painted "Sleigh Bells Ring". Piled in the sleigh are five decorative ornaments, also hand painted, that can be removed to hang on a tree.
- Holiday Party Hostess Gift - Among Susan Lordi's Willow Tree Figurines are two excellent choices. "Welcoming Spirit" holds the wreath of friendship, expressing a warm welcome to everyone entering her home. "Mi Casa" depicts the gracious hostess in the sentiment "My house is yours".
- Teacher Gift - Perhaps most appropriate is Jim Shore's traditional folk style "Teacher" ornament bearing the message "Education is the road to Success". However, the Jim Shore Christmas ornament collection offers something to suit every teacher on your list, from nativity figurines to whimsical Santa figurines and snowmen.
- Close Friend Gift - For that very special friend with the selfless giving spirit, the one who always has time for you no matter when, consider the Willow Tree Figurine "Spirit of Giving". Introduced in January of 2009, its sentiment is "Generosity is your shining gift". Other Willow Tree Figurines that make especially nice friend gifts include "Truly Golden", "Blessings", "With Love", "Courage", and numerous others.
- Significant Other Gift - "Anniversary" from Willow Tree Figurines celebrates the enduring love of lifelong partners. For newer relationships, the figurine "Together" was created for those fortunate souls who have found the partner with whom they share life and love.
The possibilities are endless, and shopping for collectable figurines can truly put the fun back into giving. However, it is only fair to warn you of one problem: You'll have no trouble locating collectable figurines that make great gifts for everyone on your list - the challenge will be in trying to choose only one for each person. Oh well, save all those ideas, and you'll already have your shopping list made for next year's holiday giving!

Wade $5.85 Wade Benedict has a job to do: infiltrate a treacherous land and rescue Chloe Madison. It was her father's dying wish--and Wade is taking it personally. The problem is, this stubborn, angry and courageous woman doesn't want to be saved. Her rage at the oppressive treatment of women has pulled Chloe into the dangerous world of an underground rebellion. She can't desert the women with whom she forged a daring alliance, and this self-appointed rescuer can't force her to abandon her friends or her commitments--even though her own life is at stake. But Chloe has met her match in Wade, a man as honorable and determined as she. As they make their escape through the treacherous mountains, unspoken passion wears away at the sharp edges that guard their hearts. And when deadly danger stalks them in Turn-Coupe, Louisiana, together they must face a battle that can only be won by the indomitable will of family...and of love. |
