Whether your loved one is into travel, wine or unique experiences, we have something they will love. So sit back, relax and let us show you some of the best unique birthday gifts out there!
Unique Gifts to Give to Adults Who Have Everything
How to Think Outside the Box
It can be tempting to just purchase a gift card when you’re out of birthday ideas. But honestly, thinking outside the box and coming up with unique ideas doesn’t have to be hard.
Instead of just grabbing the first thing that comes to mind, create a list of personality traits and characteristics of the person you are shopping for.
What do they love to do? What are their hobbies, likes, and interests?
When you take the time to get to the bottom of who they are, you’ll be much better at selecting gifts they’ll love.
So next time you’re feeling stumped about what gift to give, take some time to think about the person you are shopping for and let that guide your decision.
Items or Experiences? Which is the better buy?
One of the best gifts you can give someone is an experience rather than a material possession. This is especially true for people who seem to have everything they could want.
Instead of buying them another trinket that will collect dust on a shelf, consider getting them tickets to a show or a unique dining experience.
These types of gifts create lasting memories and are much more thoughtful than something mundane. Plus, life is meant to be lived and one of the most wonderful things you can do for someone is help them cross items off their bucket list.
Just be sure to purchase something that appeals to their interests and not yours. Otherwise, you run the risk of giving them something they don’t really want.
The best way to avoid this pitfall is to make a list of all the things you know about the person you’re shopping for (and yes–I’m doubling down on this method). Pinpointing their hobbies, likes, dislikes, and anything else that might be relevant is the best way to avoid an unwanted birthday gift that most likely can’t be returned.
Unique Birthday Gifts For Adults Who Have Everything
1. Masterclasses or Courses
If you’re on the lookout for unique birthday gifts that will really make a lasting impression, then turn your attention to gifts that are all about personal growth.
Why? Because there’s nothing more important than investing in ourselves and our own happiness. And what better way to do that than by learning something new that we’re passionate about?
Whether it’s a cooking course for the foodie in your life, a business masterclass for the go-getter, or a mental health workshop for the self-care junkie, there are so many amazing options out there.
So go ahead and treat your loved ones (and yourself!) to a unique birthday gift that will keep on giving long after the wrapping paper has been thrown away!
2. AirBnBs
When looking for unique birthday gifts for the special people in your life, you can’t go wrong with an AirBnB gift card. This will allow them to pick a place they really wanted to visit and travel without the cost.
I recommend always looking at the rates for AirBnBs you’ll know they’ll love and then purchasing a gift card slightly above cost to cover the entire purchase.
Not only will this be a unique and memorable gift, but it gives them the control over the experience they wish to have. So if you are looking for the perfect present for that special someone, an AirBnb gift card is the way to go.
3. Wine Tastings
If you’re looking for unique birthday gifts for the adult in your life, look no further than wine tastings. Experiences like this are perfect for those who already seem to have everything. They provide a much-needed break from everyday life and offer a chance to relax and enjoy some of the finer things in life. And what could be finer than sampling some of the best wines the world has to offer?
Whether your birthday recipient is a connoisseur or a novice, they’re sure to appreciate this unique and thoughtful gift. So raise a glass to their health and happiness!
4. Home Chefs
Okay, this next one is really a hit for me! A personal chef is one of the best unique birthday gifts you could give! Most adults have busy lives. We work, we have families and we always need to eat when we come home. Giving the gift of a much needed break from the stove is wonderful!
Purchase them an all-inclusive home chef package and allow them to enjoy delicious food in the comfort of their home. Not only will they get to enjoy amazing food, but they also won’t have to lift a finger in the kitchen! It’s the perfect way to show how much you care.
5. Travel Arrangements
Travel arrangements are one of the unique birthday gifts that you can give to your loved ones who already have it all. This is because it gives the gift of experience and creates beautiful memories for the person who will receive it.
The only caution that you should take into account is to really know who you are buying for. This is because some people might hate flying or might only travel to specific destinations.
Therefore, if you want to gift this amazing idea, try having a conversation with the person beforehand about their interests in order to get a feel for what they would like. This way, you can be sure that you are giving them a unique and memorable travel experience they will be over-the-moon in love with.
The older we get the harder we become to gift–and understandably so. I mean, it’s quite the challenge buying for someone who seems to have everything. But I told you we’ve got you covered. In this blog post, we’ve shared a few of our favorite unique gifts that are perfect for adults celebrating another year around sun. From masterclasses to the in-home chef experiences, these gift ideas are sure to make your loved one’s day!
