I want to buy my mother perfume.
I want to use it too.
She knows I do.
I will leave it in her room but I will come in and use it every once in a while.
It's important to me that she knows this.
This applies to friends as well.
If I bought it for you, it means I also think it's nice.

i just got this perfume tester and the lady put "enjoy :)" on a little note inside the bag. people also put "thanks for buying!" in my online thrift purchase bags all the time, so i started doing the same on all my secondhand items sold online :D
it feels a little more personal, and there's so much kindness in the world that goes unsaid otherwise. i warmly recommend leaving kind little notes for others

that usually includes a robust list of what they do/are passionate about, which will give you a good jumping off point.
HOWEVER, I am also a big fan of renegade gifting. the most treasured items I’ve ever received as gifts are things that I’d never buy for myself (and therefore would never ask for) but are things the gift giver associates with me.
my mom gave me a calmansi tree one Christmas to remind me of my childhood in the Philippines. one of my bffs got me a handmade leather journal with the last sentence of my thesis stamped in the cover when I graduated. my ex got me pottery classes at a local studio and handmade a fun gift certificate for my last birthday.
I love to give books bc that’s what I’m passionate about, and it can be a fun way to mix my personality with the receiver. the best part about receiving a gift is feeling truly seen by the person

Dope to be giving. You can know the person, or maybe not, too. Flowers are classics for the homemaker types. But the best is something really small and thoughtful. Nothing fancy or spendy. Just that shows em that you know em and and came across something that they'd like or that reminded you of them. This is sweet I think to do this :) also cool to like give some of your fav clothes to your brothas /sistas/ siblangs

Home on the Range
Pocahontas
The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland

The Cat in the Hat
Beverly Hills Chihuahua
Muppets Treasure Island
Monsters vs. Aliens
