Original gifts for Christmas

We all like to give the perfect present at Christmas, especially if you are giving them to a special loved one, a close relative or a soul mate. With these gifts we like to show them how valuable and important they are to us at this time of the year, when everybody gets a little bit sentimental at social and familiar reunions. Why is it, then, that we always end up buying the typical scarf, the boring best seller, or a perfume that no one will use? This Christmas buy something original and surprise everyone with useful but different gifts! Get inspired by the ideas that we give you from ShBarcelona while laying on the couch of one of our rental apartments in Barcelona.

Flotarium

If the person who is receiving your gift has been through a stressful period lately tere’s not a better present than a relaxing session floating in a sensory deprivation chamber in Flotarium. This 2’5m x 1’6m capsule that resembles a spaceship contains 600 liters of water and 300 kilos of Epsom salts (magnesium sulphate) that will make you float like you’re bathing in the Dead Sea. Furthermore, inside this “capsule” sensory stimulus are totally removed while floating around: gravity, light, sound, touch … is like returning to the womb for an hour and for only 35 euros. Doesn’t that sound like a good experience?

Jedi Knight Slanket

If one of your relatives is very sensitive to the cold as well as a true geek be ready to make him or her cry when you give them this Jedi knight Slanket. Last year Slankets were sold out in all stores (physical and online) of Spain after the Slanket big boom thanks to all those funny videos and promotions. This year, hurry up and get a Star Wars style Slanket!

Waterproof MP3 or Scooter suitcase

For the most “sporty” friend you have, if you have one of those, you can buy this Waterproof MP3, a device for listening to music while swimming or practicing any water sport. At a very reasonable price! If any of the gifts are aimed at someone who generally spend the year traveling, nothing like this scooter suitcase made by the prestigious suitcase brand Samsonite, to be on time for all the flights and trains rolling through airports and stations at full speed. You won’t find anything more original!

Well, maybe … how about giving a ballon flight to someone? Not suitable for those suffering from vertigo, but certainly more than one would enjoy the flight.

And to welcome the 2018 in the best way possible you can give this fabulous Chocoplanes calendar to someone… A good gift if you are in love with someone.

Up to here! We hope to have awakened your Christmas creativity…
