Used Gifts? Really?!?!
The vintage arena is overlooked when shopping for a gift. But sometimes, a well chosen vintage item that matches the person could be the perfect gift.

If they don't have a collection yet, a few items in a category as a gift can get them started collecting!

Vintage Greeting Cards
Vintage cards are fun to give on the occasion. If it is already signed, you can include a hand-written note telling why you think this card fits them.

Got an avid scrapbooker on your list? Vintage and antique greeting cards are nostalgic and often beautiful or even quirky.
Personalize it
It was popular for early 20th century items to be monogrammed. Charms are the easiest to find, but brooches and linens were also monogrammed. Taking the time to search out items to match someone on your gift list will show that they are worth the effort.

Occasionally you can find vintage and antique items with a space for monogramming, but it is still a blank slate.

Customizing a charm bracelet  with  charms that fits someones personality, hobbies, interests and passions is the ultimate gift that shows the time and thought put into the gift.
For Collectors

If someone on your gift list is a collector, why not learn a bit about their collection. The time and thought that goes into purchasing a gift that you think will fit with their collection can speak volumes about how much you care about them.
