Prizes and gifts that excite a birthday party
If you’re alive, there’s one thing that comes to everyone once a year: a birthday.
Chances are you’ll be invited to a celebration party now and then.
That’s when the dilemma is the gift.
We’ve gathered gifts that people will be happy to receive and that are sure to get people talking at the birthday party.
Prizes and Gifts That Hype Up a Birthday Party (1–10)
Handmade album gift for a birthday
For a birthday gift that will liven up a party with couples or friends, try making a handmade photo album.
Many big retailers sell album-making materials as kits in their stationery sections.
If you print out photos of your past memories and create a one-of-a-kind album, it’ll get everyone excited and also become a great keepsake.
Pop-up birthday card made with origami
Let’s try making an original card to include when you give a present at the birthday party.
A handmade pop-up card will really liven things up.
The heart in the center is also completely handmade from origami.
With colored cardstock and origami paper, you can create a lovely birthday card.
If it’s for a woman, it’s nice to make it in her favorite color, like pink or yellow.
Insta-style board
How about an Instagram-style board that can serve as a real keepsake, and if you take photos of it and upload them to social media, it can spread to many people? The design is up to you.
You can make an Instagram-like frame and decorate it with a theme centered on the birthday honoree, or make it like a group message board.
It’s sure to be a prop that gets everyone excited at the party.
Birthday Newspaper
How about a copy of the newspaper from the day the birthday party’s “guest of honor” was born? Many newspapers offer various services, so check not only national papers but also local ones.
That said, the articles in a “newspaper from the day you were born” are mostly news from the day before the birth.
Some people may already have a birthday newspaper, so it might be nice to give them the paper from the day after they were born and get excited talking about what happened on their actual birthday.
aroma candle
When it comes to classic birthday gifts for women, aroma candles are a popular choice.
They smell wonderful and look adorable—such a charming craft, aren’t they? There are also tutorials on how to make them yourself on YouTube and other platforms, so give it a search.
Original ticket
If it’s Grandma and Grandpa’s birthday, a “shoulder-massage voucher” from their grandchild would surely be a hit.
In other words, an original service ticket.
You could adapt this idea and have a woman give a man a “One-Day Date Voucher,” which might be nice too—it could even work as a way to confess your feelings.
However… we take no responsibility for whether the recipient will be pleased.
In any case, try getting creative with different services and making your own tickets.
Original playing cards
How about a set of custom playing cards featuring a photo of the birthday person? It seems various printing companies offer production services, but if you have a computer and a printer, you can also make them yourself.
While it would be nice for the recipient to keep them as a memento, another great thing about this gift is that they can open it right away and start playing.
