Having a Bit of Fun with Engraved Gifts
Very little marks a special occasion quite like getting a loved one some engraved gifts. Most people go with a name and, where possible, a fairly traditional message. But what about if you fancy thwarting convention? Surely you can have a bit of fun with your engraved gift? Course you can. Here’s a rundown of a few ‘humorous’ engraved gift ideas.
Engraved silver
Let’s assume you’re unsure exactly what to buy, but you know you want some sort of engraved silver gifts. Now let’s assume you want to engrave it with something a bit funny. Here goes.
. ‘Your engraving goes here’
. ‘I cost more per kilo than cocaine’
. ‘Multipack item not to be sold separately’
. ‘There wasn’t enough room to write wh’
. ‘Silver is the new gold’
. ‘Demo model’
. ‘Birthday present to myself’
. ‘I sold a kidney for this’
. ‘Free engraving’
. ‘Hands off! I don’t know where you’ve been!’
Alternatively, if you’re buying a tankard for a bloke, how about something along the lines of ‘I love beer like a fat kid loves cake’? And we’re sure it’s not just the kid in us who thinks engraving a child’s moneybox with ‘My other moneybox is a Millennium Falcon’ is a cool idea! As for trinket boxes, ‘Jewellery not included’ may be dead simple but, in a silly and simple way, it works. Finally, we rather like the idea of engraving a compact mirror with the words, ‘You really needed to use me before you left the house.’
Engraved jewellery
Get online and you’ll also find no end of opportunities to get hold of engraved jewellery. As for the personalisation bit, how about ‘Engravings lower resale value’ or ‘In case you ever forget your name’? Failing that, and if you can find a pair big enough, cufflinks are crying out to be personalised with, ‘I didn’t choose this shirt’.
Other engraved gift ideas
What about if you’re not really a silver person? Well, there’s always the option of personalising glass and leather – notably champagne flutes, whisky tumblers and wallets. In terms of the boozy glasses and tumblers, why not plump for something like ‘We make getting drunk look posh’? When you buy a wallet online, meanwhile, you can add a six-letter name to the front. But why not have some fun and personalise it with the word ‘Cash’? Way more original than Alan or Steve.
