Cake Toppers For A Fun Gift Idea

By Laura Collins

It is so hard to shop for presents for friends and family, let alone co-workers that we don't know so well. The old standbys, ties, shirts, coffee mugs, plaques for business associates, these are all so stale and dull. Here's why not to buy the same old boring presents and a new alternative that will surprise and please them.

## Are They Going To Need This?

Do you really think that your brother wants that striped pink tie? Is this a unique expression of your sisterly love? Often we purchase a certain gift because we don't know what else to do. We get stuck in the rut of ties and coffee mugs. Then there's the other problem about gift buying, we buy for our own taste, not the recipients'.

If we just love Rick Astley, own all of his albums, we think that our co-worker would, of course die for that latest Rick Astley re-mix album. Well, perhaps not. Challenge yourself to think about what makes them tick, what they love. Find something that strikes a chord in their heart. And consider giving the Rick Astley gift to someone you don't care for too much.

## A New Idea

Here's one thing that would be a perfect unique gift for anyone - custom figurines. What are custom figurines? Well, they are personalized unique figurines, also known as cake toppers, which are derived from a several pictures of a human or animal. A professional artist will make a mini sculpture based on the pictures given.

These cake toppers are made with care with the non-toxic German soft clay that lasts a lifetime. You can create the custom figurines and dress them the way you want it as they come from many different themes like :

- golfing - fishing - surfing - wedding day - graduation - professional wrestling - playing the guitar - baseball - ...and many more

With these, or any theme you can think of, the artist can help to come up with figurines that are quirky and full of charisma. That's basically what this is all about -- fun! It is also possible to have double figurines for anniversaries as well as weddings! Can you imagine the figurines of your mom and dad in wedding suits, at the beach?

This beats a boring plaque any day. Take a look at these custom figurines for the next birthday gift you need to purchase. Not only birthdays but for weddings, anniversaries or corporate gifts; they will always be remembered. Very likely they will put a smile on the face of everyone who sees them.
