Gift-Giving From Rayneau and What it Symbolizes!!

 Gift giving is a two-way street, in that giver and receiver experience the shared enjoyment of the exchange.

For us at Rayneau, gift giving supplies one with an armload of self-gratification. Gift giving is just one of the many ways you can show a person how you feel. Not just love, but gratitude and appreciation as well. You use it as a way to let someone know that you are thinking about them. The smallest, out of the ordinary, unexpected gift, if presented with a smile, will yield the biggest reactions.

Gift giving is both a benefit and a help. To give is the same with sharing. And to share is a relaxing act. Not only does it make a bond grow deeper, but it also gives a person the feeling of being kind and happy - because for most people, to see someone happy multiplies their joy. The joy brings the feeling of goodness to the giver.

Giving gifts is always a problem. If you love someone, you want to make sure you give them something they really want. Ideally, you want to see that look of joyous surprise when they open the gift and even before they say a word, you know it was perfect. But that doesn't always work.

It’s sad, really. You work so hard to find just the right gift, and then it doesn't fit - or it isn't the right colour - or it was broken in the box - or they already had one - or the design doesn't match what they already have - worst of all, it wasn't what they really wanted.

That’s the worst - to give someone a gift they don’t really want. Nothing makes you feel worse. They unwrap the gift and then there is a short pause - just a microsecond - but in that moment you already know the truth. “Why, it’s beautiful,” they say. But you can see the look in their eyes. You put on a brave front and try again. “Do you really like it?” “Like it? I love it.” But you aren't fooled. It’s not what they wanted. And drop by drop all the joy drains out of Christmas.

Then it became mindful to us at Rayneau this week as we thought about the question - if we were going to give someone a gift for Christmas, what would we give him/her that he/she would appreciate? The holidays are upon us, which means it's time to get cracking and find some great sentimental gifts for our valued friends and acquaintances.

You know that well decorated food hamper? Or that old aged bottle of whiskey? If you want to be the one who avoid sending those clichéd goodies, look no further. We at Rayneau have a wide range of fantastic gift ideas for you this year. 

Or if you are looking for that “décor package” to bring life to your friend’s home – Navita Designs Christmas Collections at Vide Bouteille is your best choice by far.
