The most popular answer is coffee. Indeed, this gift will definitely please him. Each morning will begin with a pleasant reminder of the donor. It remains only to choose the appropriate option, and there are many of them.

Ground or cereal.

If you are not sure that the recipient of the gift has a coffee grinder, then it is better to present him ground coffee. The main thing is that the portion is not very large, which can be used in a week. Grain coffee is suitable for lovers of the ritual of preparing a drink. Many people really like the process of grinding, when the air in the room is filled with an incomparable aroma.

Monosort or mixture.

There are people who have tried many different types of drink and have firmly decided on the priority for themselves. Find out what kind of coffee lover you like and the issue with a gift will be resolved. If a person is in search or just loves to experiment, then choose a coffee mixture for him. There are many options that are drawn up by experts in their field. Such improvisations reveal new facets of the taste of familiar varieties.

Inexpensive or elite.

Fortunately, the price range for coffee fits into any budget. It is quite possible to buy a great variety within 500 rubles per package. But if the coffee lover is used to expensive gifts, you can surprise him with an exclusive one at the corresponding price. The cost of different types of coffee depends not so much on taste as on the rarity of the variety.

The simplest case is a newbie or mid-season representative. In this case, it is easy to meet 1-2 thousand rubles, presenting a good grade of coffee or a Turk. Well, if you yourself "in the subject", then just do not give instant coffee or a Turk from stainless steel. In the case of an avid coffee lover is much more complicated. He has already acquired most of the appliances and accessories. For coffee varieties such people have well-established preferences, so gifts worth more than 10 thousand rubles are appropriate.

Coffee as a gift. New Year decoration.

If a person is an avid coffee lover, then the question with a gift to him seems to have been decided by itself. But you and I know that this is far from the case. Firstly, most likely, not only you are aware of the addictions of such a coffee lover, and a coffee gift carefully selected in the store may not be the only one, which means that the whole surprise will immediately fade. And secondly, giving a can of coffee, albeit in colorful factory packaging, is simply boring. So what to do? A decent way out of this situation is offered by Svetlana Matveeva, who will tell you how to do it yourself christmas decoration coffee  in the technique of sweet design and turn the coffee lover's object of passion into a dream gift.



Master class: New Year's coffee decoration

For me, since childhood, the New Year is a holiday similar to a fairy tale, where treasured wishes are fulfilled. So today I want to share my tale with you.

I am a crazy coffee lover, I have already tried dozens of varieties. Therefore, I really like the process of gift decoration of coffee.

My tale began in the morning when I poured myself a mug of aromatic coffee. And so, what came of it ...

So, for work you will need:

Candies;

Corrugated paper in different colors;

Coffee (or tea) in a jar;

Penoplex;

Wire;

Scissors;

Glue;

Polysilk;

Floristic materials for the manufacture of fungi.

Decorative tape;

Cones and other New Year's decor.

We cut a circle or square from a foam sheet suitable for our composition of coffee and sweets in size.


Then we cut a hole in the foam-based base so that our coffee can fits freely there.


We cut 2 square pieces of gold corrugated paper with a size of each side 1-1.5 cm larger than the diameter of the base and glue the last on both sides.

We cut a hole in the upper part, bend the tips inward.


Glue a strip of corrugated paper of the same color along the side. while the height of the strip should be greater than the height of the base by 1 cm.

We make little things by stretching the edges of the paper.


In addition, we draw a side surface with a ribbon.


After that, insert a can of coffee into the hole made. Well, and, of course, we select various New Year's decor for decoration: cones, coniferous branches, flowers, toys, etc.


One of the main elements of my New Year's composition as a gift to a coffee lover, I decided to make flowers from sweets with red petals (only 3 flowers).

Such flowers are made from sweets as follows. We wrap a small candy in a golden polysilicon and cut out the petals of a serrated shape (10 pieces).

We also cut out a small “fence” from golden corrugated paper, as in the photo.


First, wrap the candy with a gold “fence”, twist the ends with a petal.


Then we attach a piece of wire to the tail and put the red petals around the candy in 2 tiers of 5 pieces and grab the base of the flower with an elastic band (this moment is more clearly demonstrated).


When the flower is ready, you can take glitter (it is sold in any stationery store) and tint the tips of its petals.


We make 3 such flowers from candies and insert them (sticking the wire into the penoplex) into our base.


From handy floristic materials, we make small colors of different colors (one color is also possible - depending on the idea). Then we will fill them with voids.


Toy figures are also attached to the base using wire. It can be glued or wrapped around the figure.


After all the basic elements of the composition of coffee and sweets are in their places, we glue the nuts and various New Year's decor.


You can make spirals from decorative brushes (they are sold in flower shops). Inside the wire, so the brush can be given any shape. Spirals will look very interesting.


Here's a coffee-New Year's tale I got.
