Love this video! I immediately added these rules to my notes, and here they are for easy reference: 1. All gifts should contain an element of surprise 2. Respect the gifting Holy Trinity: 1. NICE 2. MADE 3. THOUGHTFUL 3. Made gifts should not be bigger than one's hand. 4. Dating and/or Monogramming a gift gives it extra power 5. Know what flowers your girl likes. 6. Take your time with books. 7. A Postcard COUNTS! 8. TWO DAYS 9. She will tell you. 10. Buy small gifts when you travel. 11. Expensive, not Costly 12. For KIDS: You pick the store, The kid picks the gift. Gift receiving: Send a thank you note The point of gift giving: Make people feel loved (even if you don't love them).

About one of the last comments, not to send you gifts. I find it to be a really cool thing in that case to donate to a special charity and write to the person saying “I donated (insert gift type or money amount) to this charity in your name”. Thee are so many financially secure people with financially secure friends who keep giving each other stuff they don’t need or don’t have space for. Something like “I donated art supplies to a local youth program in your name” is a wonderful thing and feels great for both giver and receiver.

my boyfriend sent me this and said it reminded him of my gifts over the years and i've never felt more honored. this video perfectly sums up my gift giving philosophy in far simpler terms than i've ever been able to come up with when asked by my loved ones! i would add one last note: without fail, i have found that men love flowers too , and because flowers are such an unexpected gift for men, you can often ask them outright what flowers they like (without being too blatant with your intentions) and they will be happy to even just get to ponder the question. if they don't have favorite flowers you can always just choose something you think would look nice in their home. :)

6:14 'Know which flowers your girl likes' is really good advice. Every person getting the same breed of flower for their partner, is like implicitly saying 'One key unlocks all doors'. Its hurtful, because you haven't found anything that distinguishes them from someone else you've probably dated...Really good advice

My favorite gift I have ever gotten was when I turned 16, I was given a ceramic cup from my art teacher. He made thousands of them that are all really similar but this one felt really special. I mean it helps that he knew I was a pretty big coffee drinker at the time so he also got me a bag of this really good Peruvian coffee to go with it, but the cup just feels magical in a way.

Your tip about writing it down is spot on! I keep a running list of gift ideas (on my phone) for the important people in my life and I add to it all year long- then around the holidays or their birthday, I already have 5-8 things on the list to choose from for each person. It makes it sooo easy and I know each gift is thoughful.

I love gifting, it's essential for every spirited man and woman to learn. Some of my favorite gifts to give and receive recently have been consumable things that took considerable effort, like hand made chocolates. It's great to have consumable gifts because almost nobody needs more useless crap in their life

I got my sister her first phone when she turned 16. She wasn't expecting it and cried when I surprised her. It made me cry seeing her so happy. It took me a a couple months of planning trying to slowly get info about the model and colour she wanted. The notes definitely help. Like Van, my advice is to always keep an ear out and WRITE IT DOWN.

Addendum to number 5, flowers: If your recipient lives with pets ask the flower shop for pet safe choices. Lillies for example are beautiful but quite toxic to cats. A couple of years ago my partner and I spent a whole night at the emergency vet clinic (and a few hundred dollars) because one of our cats reacted badly to a flower bouquet she (my partner) received for her birthday. The sender of course didn't know and had no intention to harm, but I must say the association lingers, they keep on sending flowers every year and sadly most of the time we leave them out of the house because we love these animals. I love flowers, I love gifts and I hate to sound like the safety police, but hey, if it saves anyone a worried night at the vet it pays to say it. Lovely video, thank you Van!

You know, I was watching that episode of Seinfeld where Jerry and Elaine hook up and agree to be friends with benefits, right. In that episode Jerry has to get Elaine a gift for her birthday and he ends up getting her money. Meanwhile, and the reason I bring this up for this video, Krammer comes in with his present--gift wrapped for the surprise. She opens it up and it's the bench she had been hitting at. Krammer had it all down like a real pro: surprise, nice, thoughtful, made.

Spot on advice. Best gift I ever received was a Christmas card with my friend and I painted on the front from a photo of when we met with Santa hats on. The gift is worthless to anyone else but the sentimental value it holds with me and the appreciation I have for an artist friend of mine to sit down and paint that for me is immeasurable.

The way the occasional sounds have a rhythm with your voice and the way you allow us to mentally drift and daydream with you... The organization is fantastic. I haven't even mentioned your perfect gift-giving guide and how helpful it is. I wonder how many great moments people will share because they watched your video and knew which gift to give and HOW. You really focus on the how and I love that. Thanks dude.

I hugely echo your comment about knowing which flowers to get for your significant other (or anyone for that fact). My wife is not a fan of roses whatsoever and to be honest, has a deep love for roadside flowers or wildflowers in general. I told my sister this before my then girlfriend and I got married at the courthouse and my sister surprised her with a bouquet of very simple flowers to have in hand when we said 'I do.' I had a small simple boutonnière made of matching wildflowers myself and she was beyond over the moon. To this day, if I surprise my wife with a bouquet it's always something simple and small like the wildflowers. On the flip side, my favorite flowers are gerbera daisies and that's always what she surprises me with. It's amazing what simple yet thoughtful gestures like nothing someone's favorite something will do to their overall happiness.

You honestly nailed it right in the coffin when getting your loved ones a gift. Being young and in a brand new relationship with no past experiences you’re learning as you go. I was the person to ask what my girlfriend wanted as a gift for her birthday or Christmas and it would make her upset by letting me know I wasn’t thoughtful enough haha. You have to pay attention just as you said and listen to the things they want (reasonable things of course and without breaking your piggy bank). Appreciate the video, keep them coming!

And we all know that feeling of giving a really good gift. Idk ever since watching it I wanted to be better at giving gifts. One Christmas I gave a really good gift to my cousin and his fiancee at the time. Now wife. It was cookware. I had visited them before and it came up that they were looking into getting new cookware. So I got them a whole cookware set. And it felt really good. It was really cool giving them a gift they really wanted.

This video really expresses the joy in giving and receiving as it was originally intended. Tangible ways to express love to people in our lives.

One year ago, I stumbled upon a video titled 'The Art of Gifting', and today, I have just rewatched it. Those 'rules' presented in the video are truly a masterpiece. I want to express my gratitude to Van Neistat for creating such a wonderful video.

This one is so good. I jotted down notes and I'll take some time this weekend to think about any upcoming gift giving, and then get creative with this list.

This was such a perfect video, in fact, the video itself felt like a gift to me - nice, thoughtful and maid - just what I was looking for, at just the right time made by such a charismatic person! I'll carry this advice for the rest of my life and for that you have my eternal gratitude

I wanna thank you, this is truly a great guideline and i will save this to use it in the future because lately ive been wanting to show my loved ones more love, and gift giving is a great way to do that, but im not great at choosing presents so this will be immensely useful
