The Truth About Christmas Presents
...is that it's ALL about the details.
Remember when choosing Christmas presents that they are presents. Presentation is very important, maybe even more important than the present inside the box/bag/paper. So consider the details. Don't leave them out to be discovered before the deadline. Don't blow your cover by telling someone who isn't supposed to know. Make a ritual out of it. Keep it a surprise. Keep things under wraps until just the right time. Then infuse meaning and compliment your gift with a card outlining WHY you want to give because it's not about the what it's about the why. It's all about the details.
"Giving presents is a talent; to know what a person wants, to know when and how to get it, to give it lovingly and well. Unless a character possesses this talent there is no moment more annihilating to ease than that in which a present is received and given." -Pamela Glenconner
