Unique Holiday Gifts 2009
I thought maybe we could start a thread with unique holiday gifts to help each other out!
I will start!
In the past I have given these and they have always been well received:
Family Name Sign
Link to Vendor
Rough Marble Vineyard Estate Coasters with last name on them
Link to item:

Re: Unique Holiday Gifts 2009
This year I got my aunt in our secret santa. She loves turtles, so I think part of her gift will be the adoption of a sea turtle from The Riverhead Foundation Last year I gave my secret santa a share of an animal through Heifer International.
I give those family plaques as engagement gifts, everyone loves them!
My FIL loves scrimshaw and reading, so I got him a scrimshaw bookmark on etsy.

Re: Unique Holiday Gifts 2009
This is cute and different! I also like the idea of buying part of an animal... That sounds like it might be a good idea for some of the kids.
eta: Keep 'em coming ladies!

Re: Unique Holiday Gifts 2009
Not so much unique but at somewhat personalized.
Each yr we get calendars made for the upcoming yr with pictures (of kids and family), made from Snapfish or Shutterfly.
My inlaws get one and so do my parents and they love it.
Ok, this is super cute

Re: Unique Holiday Gifts 2009
bumping for more suggestions...
Another idea is to frame a stock - Website
For our anniversary - I bought DH stock in Disney (we vacay there once a year) and had one share framed...
It was very cute.
They have other companies as well - Abercrombie, Allstate, Amazon, Sam Adams, etc so you can tailor it to something he likes.
eta: I'm sorry - not just for DH - maybe a sibling or a parent too! They have Mattel - for a little girl. etc.

I think this is a great family gift. You can personalize it with up to 6 "faces" plus the name.

Re: Unique Holiday Gifts 2009
Just found this and thought it was a cool gift for people who have everything (a bit $$- so it's best for someone you spend more on- like parents maybe)
Adopt an Olive Tree
Adopt an olive tree for a year and you'll receive all the produce from your tree. Imagine dunking your bread in your own oil from your own tree 1,500 miles away on a hillside in Italy. It's delicious, it's good for the world and you get to show off to your friends. With each adoption you'll receive an adoption certificate and booklet about your tree, a Spring Package containing all the extra virgin olive oil from your tree and an Autumn Package containing a set of three flavoured extra virgin olive oils.
$109
