What to give for goodbye?
Farewell, separation for a long time or for a short periodtime is always a difficult test for loving or friendly people. It is rarely easy, even if you are just being nice to a person. And then the desire to present an interesting gift is the best way to express your kind feelings, gratitude: whether it will be graduation, retirement or just moving to another city or country. Who knows, you may never see each other again!
Sentimental gift to a friend
A good friend, with whom you will part for a long time,you can give a universal gift, which brings to the next chapter of his life all those warm feelings experienced together. It's about an ordinary photo album. Yes, a little old fashioned, but with a taste. Such a gift, decorated not only with photographs, but also with funny collages and inscriptions, will "warm the heart" of the friend in separation.
More options for "friendly" gifts
This can be a pocket watch or a wrist watch, notnecessarily expensive. But try to find an engraver and make a memorable inscription on the subject. The text is arbitrary, but very warm: here you can express wishes, confess your friendship and love, and the like. A man or a young man may also get a less original gift - cufflinks and a tie.
Gift to the girl at parting
A girl at parting for a long time you can givemedallion with a joint photo. On the reverse side - a memorial engraving with a declaration of love and devotion "to the grave." A good "female" present, talking about mutual feelings - a ring with a stone (preferably, selected according to the sign of the zodiac) or other decoration, just not too expensive. Of course, if you are an oligarch, you can donate an emerald necklace!
What to give as a farewell to the employee
When leaving for retirement, it is also acceptedto give gifts. Especially if the employee is valuable and respected, has authority among his colleagues. Moreover, such a gift, as a rule, is collective, and this means that you can choose quite expensive and worthy of attention. So, having made a certain intelligence (that this person already has, so as not to get trapped), we choose the options. The best is a vacation package in hot countries or in a domestic holiday home. This is really looking at your means. You can give a laptop, a video camera or a tablet - it will always come in handy. Of course, it is necessary to accompany your gifts with the appropriate wishes expressed in writing and, importantly, with flowers!
