It is no secret that painful thoughts about what to give for the New Year 2019 lead to the birth of the next pack of socks, a cologne of the “death of a cockroach” class and a bottle of mediocre alcohol.
But don’t worry! So that you do not spend the last week before the holiday on a hectic search in stores, we have compiled for you a list of 30 ideas for the best New Year 2019 gifts. Less hassle for you - more joy for relatives, friends and colleagues!
We have already prepared the best gift ideas for 2020 New Year.
30. GPS tracker
A smart tracker is an indispensable gift for parents whose children love to run away and get lost in the crowd, or dog owners, or regularly wondering: “Where did I put the keys this time?” Moreover, a search keychain with GPS navigation can help out in the situation of a sudden disappearance of a suitcase at the airport or train station.
You just need to consider that it’s better to buy such a thing in Russia so that the GPS tracker is certified. Otherwise, law enforcement agencies may have questions to the buyer, such cases have already been covered in the press.
29. Aromatic diffuser
Unlike candles and incense sticks, the diffuser does not smoke, does not smoke, and in general its presence is determined only by a pleasant subtle smell. In addition, the bottle itself, in which there are several thin sticks of porous material, looks beautiful and, we are not afraid of this word, is environmentally friendly. Good tone - complete with the diffuser itself, you can give for the New Year 2019 several spare containers with aromatic substance.
28. Family in a frame
It's not about a boring family photo, where everyone is looking intently and severely at the camera. Often artists, both beginners and venerable masters take orders for images. And this is not necessarily a gigantic oil painting, and there is nowhere to hang it - we can talk about a funny stylized watercolor and even embroidery or textile collage. In general, at your discretion. The gift is ideal for relatives living away, with whom you are closely connected.
27. Protective plaid
If a work colleague has a country house and children, then it means that a waterproof plaid for children’s games will come in handy. On the one hand, the rug itself is warm and soft, and on the other, a dense waterproof material will protect children from damp and cold. And it can be washed in a car, which parents will probably appreciate.
26. Chocolate Fondue
It would seem that only pieces of fruit and hot chocolate - and such yummy! A fondue maker turns eating dessert into a whole ritual. First, melt the chocolate in a beautiful container with girlfriends for wine, then dip fruit, marshmallows, pieces of cookies or muffins into it. And you continue to drink wine and chat with girlfriends. What could be better for a women's party?
25. Virtual double
If your friend is fond of computer games and spends all his free time behind them, and you are aware of his passions, then a good New Year gift will be easy to choose! He will certainly appreciate the quality of the poster with the image of his alter ego from another universe. Many artists who can be found on the network will be happy to write a portrait of a game character for a moderate amount and send you an image in any resolution. But what to do next with it is up to you.
24. Personalized cookware
Who drank from my cup? Who ate from my plate? With new personalized cookware sets, such questions will go into the realm of tradition. All you have to do is order a print on the mugs or plates with the names of family members and funny pictures - and no one else will drag other people's cups and forget them somewhere in the bowels of the apartment.
23. Set for the traveler
Does your friend or girlfriend seem to spend more time on the plane than on hard ground? Often travels on business trips? Constantly wound from one end of the world to the other? So, he or she will be happy with the traveler’s kit - a sleep mask and a travel pillow for the neck. Just make sure that both are easily erased and lightly weighted.
22. Dark Nights
There are not only in the city of Sochi. For friends, late returning from work, or for inveterate travelers, or for summer residents, packing their things for a trip home on a dark evening - for all these categories of citizens a small but powerful flashlight with a super-hardy battery will be an excellent gift. And if it can still be hung on the arm by the loop - there will be no end to pleasure.
21. The device for popcorn
What is better combined with a home theater than a popcorn machine? Especially if it is decorated in retro style - in a red and yellow tent, which was once used in America in the 50s.
20. Ageless classic
Have your friends recently tied the knot or have they simply come together? Friends jumped into a mortgage and bought an apartment, and now they have repairs and need to save? Give them for 2019 Pig kitchen appliances, something interesting and practical. For example, a modern pressure cooker, slow cooker, waffle iron or hot air grill. Yes, even a set of cutting boards, but not ancient wooden ones, but, for example, designed in the form of a folder with inserts, will demonstrate your attention and care.
19. Set for the garden
Inveterate gardeners will surely enjoy the gift set of garden tools. It should be beautifully shaped, with convenient and easy to clean handles and a special container or bag with compartments, where you can put all this wealth into the winter.
18. World map on a blanket
Great gift for kids and schoolchildren. In addition to purely practical value (it’s warm and comfortable to sleep under), a blanket with a map of the world can be used as a platform for games.
17. Cot for kings
If friends or relatives have a pet, they will certainly appreciate a set of comfortable beds. And the owners - a removable cover that can be machine washed.
16. Add pepper
If a person is fond of cooking, it is almost impossible to make a mistake by giving him a set of spices. In stores you can find many options for such sets - from simple cardboard boxes in a peasant style, tied with an authentic hemp rope, to entire multi-story temples of original taste sensations. The choice is yours.
15. Headphones and headsets
If your friends like to listen to music and (or) are fond of online games, then high-quality wireless headphones or a gaming headset is the best option for a New Year's gift. For this, your friends' neighbors will also thank you, because not everyone likes music rattling behind the wall.
14. Game sets and figures
Choosing a gift for a fan of a game or movie is simplified to the ridiculous. He will be happy with everything - from the figures in the form of a favorite hero to the game set with characters from whom he is a fan.
13. Soft toys
Let's be honest - even the most strict adult in the shower is still a little bit a child. And which child does not like soft toys? They are warm, comfortable, it is pleasant to iron them and even sometimes take them to bed if you want to "hug and cry." Of course, these are good dust collectors, well, let them. Dust can be brushed off, and pleasant emotions from a gift are priceless.
12. New Year's decor
Beautiful balls, multi-colored garlands, luminous Christmas toys - all these objects are useless at other times, except New Year's Eve. So give a gift when it is most appropriate. After all, creating a New Year’s atmosphere without an appropriate decor is a very difficult matter.
11. Game console
The world of games on a desktop computer is gradually dying away - all the hot new items come out first on consoles, and only six months later on a PC. Currently, there are several types of consoles, the most popular three are Nintendo Switch, PlayStation and Xbox. You can give the console to a child or a husband who is interested in games.
10. Board games
Board games can be played in almost any environment - from the train compartment to the kitchen. You can play with friends, grandparents and children. There are clear rules in the “tables”, and no one will go “out of turn” or cheat. The best board games develop social interaction, improve concentration, train logical thinking, and it turns out that this is not only a pleasant, but also a very useful gift.
There are many options for board games - from classic word games and charades to creative (compose your own fairy tale) and hardcore DnD sessions.
9. Computer hardware
Having bought a computer once, its lucky owner is doomed to regularly upgrade. Surely you have a friend or girlfriend who complains that it is high time to put a more productive graphics card or add RAM, but there is no money. And then you appear on the scene, with a generous gesture, holding out the desired. New year, dreams come true!
8. Dolls and baby dolls
A suitable gift for a young princess is a gift set with a beautiful doll and accessories for her, or a small, neat baby doll, which can be put in a doll stroller and play in "mother-daughter".
Do not believe those who say that boys do not play dolls. They play, just dolls should be more “brutal” than girls. It can be a doll in the form of one of the superheroes, a fireman, a policeman, etc.
7. Phone Accessories
Does a friend show off to everyone with her iPhone? A friend recently bought a new smartphone? Give them a beautiful accessory for their mobile pet for the New Year. Believe me, for modern people who do not part with a mobile phone, little can be the best gift.
6. Robots and transformers
If I had a robot in my childhood, able to walk, sing or dance, I would be the king of the court. Now, with a robot or a transformer, it is no longer possible to introduce other children into ecstatic ecstasy, but for a young or adult lover of mechanical toys this will be a great gift.
5. Carnival costumes
Themed geek party is one of the best scenarios for celebrating the New Year. You can arrange a draw in advance to determine the suit that you will present to a friend or girlfriend. And he, accordingly, will choose a suit for you.
Also, a carnival costume will be a great gift for a child who will participate in the New Year's performance. Perhaps it is his costume that will be recognized as the best, and the little lucky (or lucky) will receive a prize for him.
4. TV
What could be better than lying on the couch and watching the New Year comedy without having to knead the melted snow porridge on the street? The new TV is a great gift for lovers of high resolution and large screens. And considering that many modern TV models are equipped with various useful “tricks” like Wi-Fi, Smart TV and TV tuner, such a gift will be clearly remembered for the whole year.
3. Cosmetics and perfumes
For a fashionable girlfriend, colleague, relative or wife, you can find in stores or order online a set of cosmetics or perfumes in exquisite packaging. It is clear that you would like the gift, it should be good cosmetics made from quality ingredients that will not cause 100% of the future owner of allergies. This often happens with gift cosmetics, so it is advisable to know in advance which brand of cosmetics the person to whom you present the gift is using. And what kind of aromas does she like the most.
2. Constructor
Having presented an interesting constructor to family friends, you can feel like Superman or Wonder Woman. After all, you save not only children, but also adults from the boredom of dull evenings, when you do not even want to watch TV. There can be many options, depending on the age and preferences of those gifted, from the simplest sets for babies to the most complicated models, like the world's largest LEGO Star Wars set.
1. Smartphone
Even the smartest and best smartphone of 2018 is morally obsolete in a couple of years. And many secretly dream of a new model, but cannot afford it. If finances allow you, work for a loved one with Santa Claus, give him or her a brand new mobile phone. This does not have to be the iPhone of the latest model, now there are a lot of worthy competitors from South Korea, Europe and China.
Also, the smartphone will be a good New Year's gift for an elderly person who would be glad to part with the outdated “folding bed”, but he is afraid that he will not understand all the functions of the touchscreen device. Patiently and thoroughly explain to him how to use your smartphone, even if it takes part of the New Year's Eve.
