1. Pre-greeting
Greeting your loved one, friend, relative on the phone, in text message, e-mail, as if you won’t or can’t greet him or her in person. Even if the celebrated knows that you organize a birthday party or it’s sure that you will meet him or her, it’s a kind gesture.

2. Gift on the big day
One of the most important things is that you have to give the gift to the celebrated on the big day, even if you can’t meet with him or her, because this shows how important this day is for you both. If you meet the celebrated later or on the next day, then parcel the gift, so you can give it in parts.

3. Be creative
The main point is the garnish, not just the gift. So send to the celebrated a bunch of balloons in the number of her or his age or write a message to a sheet and hang it to the entry of his or her work place, or you can spray him or her with champagne if the person likes fun (but don’t forget the changing clothes).

4. Forget the gift bag
Wrap your gift, even if your are bad in this task, because that is much is cuter and more personal than any gift bag. It requires a little time to find and choose the perfect wrapping paper, but it’s worth it. Overdo the question of wrapping, so the wrapping out process will be more exciting and this way the celebrated have to wait to reach the gift, while the excitement grows.

5. Personal gift card
Anyway, the gift card is really important, but above all the message is the most significant. If you have no idea what you should write it’s enough if you choose the simplest: ’I love you Honey’ or search a quote or a proverb, it would be also funny or unique. Don’t miss it because people love this kind of message, especially if it includes their name or nickname!

6. Sign the gift with your personality
If you give a book as a gift, write a personal recommendation into it, so it will be a real memory. The recommendation also can be a proverb, a quote or your own poem. If you give anything else, hide something personal in it, for example if your gift is a clothes, put accessories which you borrow from the celebrated and write a little post that the new clothes will perfectly match the celebrated style.

Another example, if you give a sport equipment get a picture of a sporty person and write the following: Very soon you will look like this sporty guy.

I guarantee that if you keep these points, the celebrated will be satisfied, happy and will remember your gift for a long time."
