Tuesday, November 3, 2020
In the last months of this rather turbulent year, you and your customers have probably already thought about coronaproof solutions for the holidays. Of course, this also applies to organizing a Christmas drink at home or with colleagues. This year organizing a Christmas or New Year's Eve drink requires a lot of creativity, because most of us work from home. That is why we have listed some creative alternatives for you. Read more about gift tips for your store here or even surprise your own staff with it.
1. Offer a do-it-yourself workshop at home
Where in the past there would have been a cooking workshop with the whole team or a big group of friends, you can also learn or experience something new at home. Boost this expierence by offering a matching DIY product!
▷ Make a christmas cocktail punch 🍷
With an online whiskey tasting or complete DIY cocktail package you can celebrate at home. Because you can easily make cocktails yourself, it’s nice to offer a package with fresh ingredients, a cocktail set and a cocktail recipe book inside.
Prefer a non-alcoholic version or a hot drink instead? Think of a winter recipe for making the most delicious chocolate milk, with oreo crumbs or marshmellows for example. With this you could offer a cute enamel mug!
▷ Make your own plant terrarium 🌱
Terrariums are also very suitable for a creative online DIY workshop, for anyone with or without a green thumb. The terrarium icl. Diy-tools is almost immediatly ready to use after unpacking the giftbox. Only the plants are missing. And if the receiver of the gift isn't that into plants? The demijohn can always be used for decoration or for wine storage, where the product was originally invented for.
2. Organize an online pub quiz or Christmas game (The virtual christmas party) 💻 🎄
Now that physical gathering in a group isn’t possible for a while, the craving for being together is all the greater. An online tool like Zoom, Teams or Skype doesn't have to be just for business. You can also use it to organize an exciting pub quiz. In this way, the corporate Christmas Party is not completely skipped.
Just like at the normal Christmas reception, bites and beverages shouldn't be missing. Provide a bucket full of tasty things to use during the quiz and toast to a better year together! Make it easy for your customer and offer a complete give-away-bucket with beverages inside.
Tip: Agree to put on ugly Christmas sweaters or put a mini Christmas tree on your desk during the quiz, for an even better Christmas feeling!
3. Make it cosy at home 🕯️
Want to surprise your friends, family or staff with something nice for in and around the house? Candles, cushions and blankets are often a good mood booster. And did you think of the winter garden yet? When you think of the winter garden, you quickly think of warmth and light. A fire basket, fire bowl or jolly lights quickly add a cozy romantic atmosphere to the garden. By the way, a basket or fire basket can be used to collect even more presents in, if you want to offer an extra richly filled Christmas gift as alternative to the christmas reception!
