Friendship Bracelets

• Homemade friendship bracelets are a good option for personalized gift trading. Simple bracelets can be made with someone's favorite colors. More challenging or professionally made bracelets can be made to include someone's name on them or a special date. Although they are called "friendship" bracelets, these can be traded among family members, spouses or people who are dating. All that is needed is string or yarn, which makes this a relatively inexpensive but special gift.
  
  

Picture Frame

• If you have a nice picture of yourself and the person you want to give a gift to, a personalized picture frame is the perfect gift. Decorate a plastic or wooden picture frame with markers, paint, stickers, glitter and anything else you can think of to make a one-of-a-kind frame for your friend or loved one. Write a special message on the frame or draw a design. Put the photo inside of the frame to add the finishing touch.
  
  

Rings

• Rings can be personalized in a variety of ways. Personalization can range from a complex arrangement of stones or a simple engraving. Have a jewelry or specialty shop engrave a special date like an anniversary or a name into a silver band. You and your friend or loved one can go together to pick out matching bands for each other and have then engraved for each other.
  
  

Poem

• A poem is a inexpensive yet special personalized gift. A poem allows you to express exactly how you feel about the person and show them how much you care. Hand write the poem or print it out on decorative paper. Write the poem specific for the occasion like a birthday or anniversary or write about the way you feel for the person. Frame, laminate or nicely wrap the poem before you give it as a gift.
