This year I am giving out POB NFTs for Christmas!!
They are creations I made.
This one is the cubed kimchi "Kkak Doogie"
I minted twelve and will be handing out a few this Christmas.
You are very artistically talented and "Kkak Doogie" is a super cute Christmas NFT! @mineopoly
Thank you @ninahaskin,
I've been playing with pixel art and code to make crypto punks. I gave up the coding and just made a lame dot to dot. I saved the image the wrong size. Try, try and try again. I do most art when I am avoiding something I don't want to do. I don't want to count comments on yellow bird. But that's what I have to do to send out the prizes. I can't get POB NFT to connect today, but when I do I want to send it to some participants.
!LUV
Haha! @mineopoly
A personalized Punk Rocker named ybrdinium violet. My very first NFT. She's perfect! Thank you!π
I like the way you think and how you handle not dealing with things you don't want to do. I have a term for this ailment: creative procrastination. It's best done while listening to your favorite playlists at varying levels of volume depending on the genre and if anyone else is home or at work with you.πππ
Adulting can be so "not fun." We should've been warned!
I get some of my best work done in the process of "creative procrastination".
It's Friday. Have a !BEER and enjoy the weekend. Mine is already off to a great start. I spent the last hour in the dental chair. It wasn't half as painful as it looked.
Sorry, out of BEER, please retry later...

Christmas is all about love therefore my christmas gift idea would be to get something the person likes and most importantly what I can afford and attach to it a note appreciating all that the person has done and ways they inspire me. This way they will understand their relevance, role and place in my life.
My best is my boyfriend coming back to his normal self.
That's all I need
Due to popularity of crypto and blockchain, and my love to Ecency, I find Ecency points a very good present :)
Definitely a welcomed gift! One size fits all! @irisworld
@ninahaskin, @faith65, thanks for supporting that idea. I hope all of us will have a bunch of Ecency points next year :)

This is the coolest Ecency New Year gif!!! @irisworld
Happy that you like it :)
I would definitely love this too! Such a good idea.
It'd be super if Ecency points were awarded for everyone who replies on this post!!! π
Bag full of Hive and a warm hug. Nothing else.
My best Christmas ideas is having the best moments to show love to people around me,even extending such love to those who don't have the privilege to survive on their own.
Let me be very honest with this,that I always have passion and interest in giving to the world rather than taking too, Christmas to me is another opportunity to build on such idea
Plus gifts and food, drinks, etc. I always place a bouquet of jasmine on the table, its aroma always reminds me of Christmas because they bloom at this time, for me it is the symbol of the Christmas spirit. It is my secret gift. I know, very taurus haha
Time! Because it is very precious and sharing it with who matters most to you is the best present/gift one could ever give :)
My best hive present is getting an avenue to donate to the less privilege ,most especially the orphanage homes right now
Any gift that is been given in Christmas period is always appreciated but mine can be a hive present for Christmas.
My best idea of Christmas gift should be food, drinks and shelter for the less privilege so that they can equally enjoyed the eve Christmas Eve as well
Care, attention and a small, individual gift that a person will like!
Politicians and self appointed "experts" could give us the gift of silence, so actual scientists and doctors could deal with this covid situation uninterrupted...
Best Christmas present that I'm fortunate to receive, soon, will be my sister-in-law visiting us and getting to spend quality time with my niece (also, my god daughter) and nephew. I love kiddies and find their company energizing :)
As far as the best Christmas gift I can give, I wracked my brain what I might get my wife (after being together for over 15 years). Finally, I decided to get her a necklace with her name on it, in Arabic. She's half-Colombian and my Spanish is pretty good, now, but even though I'm Egyptian, her Arabic needs some working on ... Hence, the Arabic necklace ;)
My plan has alway been to show love. Planning on visiting the old people's home and prison to gift these people and also make them understand that they are still loved and cherished.
They may be separated or cut off from the by circumstances and nature, but I believe they still need that love and attention. Gifting them food items and what they will always need to stay happy will go a long way in making positive and long last impact in their life.
Nothing gives me more joy than putting smile on the faces of others. Sometimes, it is not always about the money but how we reach out and extend the hand of love to others that are in serious need of it.
Christmas is the time and season of love, I choose to touch lives and make impact through my act of kindness.
In my humble opinion , i would suggest to gift someone something priceless which is showing them love in this holiday season . But on the other hand when it comes to material things i would say send them a Christmas tree π to decorate maybe with boxes filled with a cap , a phone , cloth or wrist watch.
Probably add cash in the boxes if you wish.
Para mΓ el mejor regalo que puedo dar y recibir es el tiempo que se comparte con los seres queridos porque lo material se puede adquirir en cualquier momento pero el tiempo, el amor, el compartir son cosas que se van y no vuelven.
RegΓ‘lame tΓΊ tiempo y te regalarΓ© el mΓo.

If we happy and able to help someone who can celebrate it with there family then need to bring smile on someone's face. Try at least to one people and see everyone can celebrate it.
For my boyfriend, it's easy this time. His shaving machine is faulty, it was a cheap one at the time as we had little funds. I have bought him a good philips one he desired for a few years (in 2017), but I got scammed as the seller never send it and I could not do anything but take my losses. I did not have funds left for another present at the time, so we bought a cheap one months later. It's truly a pain using it nowadays and he'd love nothing more than a new one but this time, the Philips model I bought at the time (or newer but he's content with that one), I believe I should honor his wishes and let Santa bring that long awaited Philips shaver, maybe make a poem along with it. That Santa lost it or something, and it took 4 years to arrive haha.
Giving my fortune to less fortunate
Amen!
Christmas gift is challenging because on one hand, you have the recipient taste, and on the other the giver wish and way to provide the gift. So the perfect present is where the giver understands the taste and even buying in different price ranges will satisfy the recipient. And also, the recipient should be very open-minded to accept something in different price ranges, don`t expect to get a car! For example, I like wines and beer, so I would be happy with a $3 can of beer! But for sure I would appreciate a $500 wine π!
My best Christmas present ideas would be a Christmas themed pyjamas for the whole family, a cosy microwavable boots to overcome winter while indoors and a box of chocolates accompanied with a lovely wish note. I hope to actually get at least, one of them this Christmas for someone special.
My Best present Idea is a self recorded Christmasstory. Ill do it for my nephiew this year!
Christmas is the time of the year my cousins come to our home town, we live in Spain whilst they live in Germany and every year they come to Barcelona, Spain to celebrate Christmas. They usually spend about 5 days with us, unfortunately this year they will not be able to come. That is why we are surprising them and for the first time in my life we will be spending Christmas break away from home. Therefore, I believe that quality time with the ones you love is the most precious present Christmas has for us, thus the best Christmas present this year for my family and I.
A Christmas present Iβm really looking forward to gift my cousin is a manicure. She always likes to paint her nails or put fake nails. I think it is a great idea since I plan on going together and having a girls only day. This might not seem a lot, but she has 5 brothers and Iβm her only girl cousin, so I think she will love having a break!
In these times so conflictive, the best thing that one can give is time, time to share with loved ones, share with friends and provide help if someone needs it.
The best present is a Christmas trip!
apple products present from justin bieber like a song of βall i want for a christmas is youβ
that's it.
I always loved to give some special chocolats, special in smell and in the way they look. We all have so much things, so this is something everybody loves to get and once eaten it doesnt need any space ;-) ok, except maybe some may need new clothes after all the chocolate ;-)
Yes! *Everyone * loves chocolate! @beeberπ
huch π how did you find me here π§‘
Easy! Your profile pic is a memorable one! @beeber
Mein bestes Geschenk war ein IPHONE 8 π
The best Christmas present ideas are being together with family and friends; the gift of unconditional love (reach out and make peace with someone who angered you and be the bigger person!), spending time with loved ones as well as the elderly who have nobody during the holidays, donating to the less fortunate and lastly, the gift of food -- either homemade or store bought! πππ
Mi mejor regalo es darle gracias Dios por cada dia de vida. Hace unos dΓas supere el CΓ‘ncer, y saber que tendrΓ© muchas mas esperanza de vida junto a los mΓos, es el mejor regalo.
Some good chrismass food and small party with family. That's cool enough
Anything given through out the whole of these season is much much appreciated. But I will consider something really cool so I can spend time with the ones that matters to my life because time is all I can give and never take back and I hope they appreciate my stay around them because I really do appreciate their company too!
The best Christmas gift to me is having all loved ones around, so we can all sit together tell stories and party out like we have ever done before. And not forgetting moving around to support those who doesn't have anyone to cheer him/her up
Best Christmas ideas for 2021:
A physical christmas card πππ¬ with greetings: it's so long we hadn't received a physical letter, and this would be surprising beautiful!
Some of our time β²οΈ to our loved ones: there's nothing more precious than time, we could give some of it to help, listen, or just give attention to someone who needs it!
A mountain ποΈ of gifts ππ to the children: not expensive things, just wrap up candies, cards, little things and make presents for them to open. They'll love it!
A warm hug π€: since COVID-19's appearance on the planet, we've been so distanced and lonely. It's time to get all vaccined, eliminate the virus and get together!
To all of you, my very best wishes for the best Christmas ever! πβπ
Get a sample of what people want that kind gestures or money can afford.
Get it, wrap it and give to them. Doesn't have to be someone you love, could be a homeless person, a neighbor or a colleague at work.
My best Christmas present ideas is receiving ecency points and maximum support!
The best present that I can give to my relatives this year is to be with them. I bought some stuff as presents but the biggest one will be to be with them. In this "Corona Crisis" in my country, they scared us so much and no one wants to travel (we are living in different cities). We are also scared because in the different cities there is a different version of the virus.
I hope that this year I will have the chance to be with my parents, my sister and her family and my own family - together as one big and happy family!
I thing the best gift is we all are speak truth in infront of any one.
