What Your Go-To Gift Says About You

(And Why It Might Be Time to Mix Things Up… Just Saying.)

Let’s be honest: we all have a go-to gift.

The thing we reach for when time is short, ideas are few, and gift fatigue is real.

But have you ever stopped to wonder what your default gift says about you?

Well… we have.

Here’s what your go-to gift is telling the world—and how to level it up when you want to make a lasting impression.

The Bottle of Wine Giver

What it says: You’re classy, practical, and always welcome at dinner parties.
The risk: It’s forgettable. Unless it's truly special, it might end up in the re-gift pile.
Prezzie remix: A custom cocktail kit with a handwritten recipe card, local mixers, and the recipient’s favorite flavor profile.

The Scented Candle Enthusiast

What it says: You value cozy vibes and a good ambiance.
The risk: Unless you know their exact scent style, you could be one lavender/vanilla misstep away from "meh."
Prezzie remix: Pair the candle with a few curated self-care goodies—think luxe matches, a calming playlist QR code, and a custom note that says, “You deserve this.”

The Gourmet Snack Gift-Giver

What it says: You know the way to someone’s heart is through their stomach.
The risk: Feels generic if it’s just off-the-shelf.
Prezzie remix: Elevate it with small-batch, local treats and fun packaging that speaks to the occasion (e.g. “Snack Breaks > Staff Meetings”).

The Branded Swag Sender

What it says: You’re all business, all the time—and you’re big on brand visibility.
The risk: It can feel more promotional than personal.
Prezzie remix: Keep it on-brand, but infuse it with meaning: your client’s favorite tea in a branded tumbler, or a gift tied to an inside joke or shared project win.

The Gift Card Go-To

What it says: You want to be generous and flexible.
The risk: It can feel like an afterthought, especially without a personal touch.
Prezzie remix: Present it inside a beautifully curated mini gift—like a local coffee card tucked into a cozy mug with biscotti and a note that says, “Take five—it’s on me.”

So, What’s Your Gifting Personality?

Whether you’re a “wine-and-wrap” type or a “click-and-ship” pro, your go-to gift is saying something. And if you’re here, chances are you care about gifting that feels thoughtful, not transactional.
