Why Get Handmade Gifts

Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, graduations… when you’re thinking of giving gifts to a special person, the first thing you think about shouldn’t be the price of the gift. How does that saying go… “it’s always the thought that counts”? Yes, a gift that matches the receiver’s personality is thousands of times more treasured than an expensive gift that doesn’t take the receiver into account. It might not always be worth much, but if a receiver knew that you had them in mind when you were picking out the gift, it elicits a lot of indescribable emotions.

That’s why you should always be careful when picking out a gift, and not just buy the first thing you see. But what kind of gift is a surefire way of conveying your thoughtfulness and appreciation for the receiver? The answer to this question lies in the uniqueness of the gift you give them.

Customised gifts: presents to remember you by
Customised gifts are foolproof in showing people you care about them. Why? It takes more time and effort to make customised gifts, of course. They were made especially for the receiver in mind, they aren’t just mass-produced trinkets that you just bought at a shop haphazardly. No, it shows that you painstakingly chosen from many different items picked out something that you know the receiver would use, and then had it crafted in a way that symbolises what the person means to you. Customised presents are items that are much more memorable and meaningful than giving plain ones.

The ultimate customised gift

And on that note, you can up the ante by giving customised handmade gifts. What are they? These are gifts are made by skilled artisans who use traditional methods or tools to craft the gift painstakingly by hand. They are the most personal of customised gifts, and they are the best show of appreciation that you can give to any receiver. Here are just some of the reasons why you should consider giving a handmade present to your loved one.

  1. They are one of a kind. Literally. Handmade gifts are made with extra care in mind, as opposed to standard customised presents because of their nature. They’re not factory-made and they can be made to exact specifications.
  2. Handmade gifts add a flair to everything. Sometimes the human touch is something you need in a gift. Every handmade present is created with careful consideration by expert crafters.
  3. Imaginative ideas. Handmade gift ideas can include anything under the sun. For example, at Arch Heritage, you can design your own gifts with wonderful images of Singapore, or let us know how you want your gifts to look.
  4. For picky people. There are some people who are just too hard to buy gifts for. Maybe this person already has everything, or you don’t know what kind of item to buy for them. A handmade gift ensures that what you give is something they haven’t received before.
