Taurus Gifts for Christmas

This topic was created in the Taurus forum by Lovelyisis on Friday, December 16, 2016 and has 17 replies.
I have not been on these boards in quite some time, but just curious as to what gifts would Taurus (men and women both) actually like for Christmas or have been surprised by as a Christmas gift in the past?
A safe bet for me is a giftcard to someplace where I like to eat. People who don't know what else to get me end up getting me that. Not exciting, but it comes in handy.
Candles yeah, gift cards yeah.

I would advise you not to ask strangers and just really dig deep into their life style and see what would they individually appreciate from you.

The only reason I say that is because the Taurus folk I know are SUPER PICKY about receiving gifts.

I remember after my trip from Japan a while back, I had bought my mom this really nice Kanae Kokeshi Doll and I was so excited to give it to her.

Years later I never saw it displayed and when I helped her move out I saw it in a storage box still boxed. I asked her why never displayed it since I gave it to her with so much love!! And she said "but it doesn't go with the decoration?!"

Aaaaarrrrgggggg.... these Venusians ?

I don't mind asking strangers because I've already bought the gifts and they were tailored specifically to my friend. A pair of tennis shoes he fell in love with a couple months back he just couldn't afford at the time, a hoodie (since he loves wearing them), and just a couple tshirts since he loves wearing them as well (one with Taurus sign that says "I'm not stubborn. I'm just right.", and another one with a rubix cube mixed up that says "if you've got a problem, yo I'll fix it.". Just thought it still wouldn't hurt to ask some other fellow bulls smile

Wow! You're spoiling him...lol. Are you sure he's JUST a friend ?

He's a bit more than a friend until I get bored and/or deterred because he, true to his nature, refuses to cut out. Whenever I spazz out & want to detach for good he always tells me he's not going anywhere. I refer to him as just a friend though because most times when we do hang out...we really are just hanging out chilling & talking & relaxing watching TV....no sex. However, my best friend just visited from Philly (flight at my expense) for a week and I took her Christmas shopping for an entire day....everything on me. I spent more on her than I did him for Christmas. I keep my circle of trust very small so I tend to spoil the few that are in it. Its both my sun & moon that makes me this way. I'm just a bit fortunate that I'm in a position to be able to spoil my friends the way I do. It's all relative really compared to what I'm truly capable of doing. I enjoy seeing my friends happy....it makes me happy ?

I like giving and receiving art in some form, like framed art prints or oil paintings, decorative mirrors reflecting the personal taste of the receiver. I enjoy giving books to Gem friends and family because they enjoy receiving them so much. Friends with collections of something are the easiest to buy for. IMHO.

For myself, I enjoy receiving most anything decorative or useful. A gift card suits me fine. It's easy, and I get tons of pleasure using it.
From what I know about Taurus...they like things that are practical in some way, shape or form.

Been busy with the bull in my life, and life in general. I do pop in time to time to see what's going on.

I hope you feel better! I just shaking something off myself.

I agree. My favorite gifts are the luxe soft ones or nice perfumes. Like really soft slippers or blanket or a super soft robe or some really nice perfume. Makes me always think of that person when I wear or use it.
SUPER PICKY about gifts and rarely like the gifts I've gotten from others (I never tell them that though). But really we're hard to shop for but you need to LISTEN to what we say and observe us. The best gifts I've ever received are the ones that a lot of thought were put into it.

Must be something in the air. Because I was fine and woke up with chills, and sore throat, popped some Tylenol . I might go to urgent care and take off work. My brother here who I don't see often is getting sick.

You know Taurus rules throat and I can't eat or drink without feeling discomfort. Lol.

Oh yeah I'm picky on smells. My favorite body and lotion spray is Japanese Cherry Blossom. So far. I wear it to work and of course I have perfume for outgoing actions like White Musk, Tommy Hilfiger for woman, and my favorite JOOP.
