Answer #1

If your parents are tech savvy, then look into the latest hand held devices. Avoid original artwork, as your artistic preference may not resemble your folks. A nice watch is always appreciated by fathers for it’s visual appeal and functionality. Although original art is discouraged, a tasteful ceramic figure (I.e. animal or people, avoiding dangerous looking animals) makes a handsome gift. A designer sweater is a nice gesture for the cold season but avoid seasonal images like Santa Claus or reindeer flying and while on the subject of clothes, don’t give shoes or pants, those articles of clothing are always at the scrutiny and comfort of the ones wearing them (there’s is a lot to avoid). If jewelry is something you’ve considered, go with an attractive bracelet or necklace with an elegant pendant. Best to steer clear of earrings and rings, these are also subject to major scrutiny, and remember, good gift giving isn’t hard but can be easily turned upside down by a startling original painting, a ceramic rattle snake or a pull over depicting a Christmas tree with gifts under it. In the end, anything not too flashy or gaudy will make a fine gift for a parent or friend. Just use your best judgment, be considerate and remain casual, that is unless you know your parents’ interests in which case you can pick a thoughtful gift that will make them smile. Happy Hunting. :) Peace

Answer #2

I think that whatever you give your parents, and they give the impression that they don’t like it or “are not impressed”, they are not acting very nice. Give gift certificates and let them decide what to get, or make something yourself.

Happy christmas :-)
