Gifts the Non-Bro Guy in Your Life Will Actually Want

Make Nice with the New Neighbors: 5 Perfect Housewarming Gifts
Although it doesn’t get talked about much on House Hunters, the one feature that can really make or break a new home isn’t the kitchen, bathroom or the backyard; it’s your neighbors. And good neighbors, I think, are more an issue of nurture than nature—when you set a friendly tone with new neighbors upfront, you’ll find it’s easy to build and keep a relationship with them, no matter who they are or how they live. But the first step, of course, is to meet them.

Secret Santa Style: Gifts Your Colleagues Will Fight Over
秘密圣诞老人和雪花awkw礼物交换ard scenarios. They are a warm fuzzy, festive and social thing to do around the holidays, but it’s also an odd experience buying gifts for people with whom you might share a cubicle. Whatever you do, don’t just buy something completely boring and generic that everyone will hate equally. Take a risk (it’s only a gift exchange) and get something that’s still useful, but also has a little bit of style and personality.

Silly, Off-Beat White Elephant Gifts for Maximum Laughs
The first time I heard about a white elephant gift exchange (sometimes called Yankee Swap), I thought it sounded crazy. “Wait, you open a gift and then someone can take it from you?” I’ve always felt that the “winner” wasn’t the person who went home with the most sought after gift, but the person who brought the gift that everyone was vying for. And what’s the perfect white elephant gift?

Perfect Gifts for the Cook Who Has Everything
Gift giving can be tricky. Let’s say you have a friend who loves to cook, and you want to get them something you know they’ll use. But of course, since they love cooking, they probably already own all the kitchen tools they need. Instead of getting your friend an ice cream maker or a pan shaped like Santa Claus, why not give them a lovely, luxurious version of something they already own? (We wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to pick up a few of these things for yourself, too.
