Funny gifts – unpacking concrete
Wouldn't you like to be so mean and give away meaningless gifts, but rather oneoriginal packaginguse, this idea is great. It is particularly suitable for smaller gifts that are cast in concrete. If you want to get your gift, you first have to break the concrete. That's what you call original packaging, isn't it?
Use this idea for fun gifts toVouchers or ticketsto pack and give away for various events. It is also suitable for funny monetary gifts. Depending on how difficult you want to make it for the recipient, you can mix particularly solid concrete (with less water) or less solid concrete. You need:
- Concrete mix for crafts
- sufficiently large freezer container
- Wooden letters
- sealable bag for the gift
- Glue
You need the wooden letters to tell the recipient how the gift will be “opened” (e.g. “Break me”). Instead, you can also attach a card or a ribbon with a label to the concrete block and label it. Take the freezer container and stick the letters in mirror image. Mix the concrete as directed on the packaging and pour a thin layer into the can. Shake the can a little to distribute the concrete well.
Take the bag and seal the gift in it. Place it on the finished layer of concrete and fill in another layer. Make sure the bag is covered on all sides. Shake again and let the concrete dry thoroughly. While you're at it, you can implement this idea for fun gifts for birthdays, Christmas or other occasions for several people.
Play pranks and choose funny gift wrapping
This original packaging is great for funny Secret Santa gifts, but also for funny gifts for men, for women and for young and old. It is not possible to tear open the wrapping paper with anticipation. Instead, the only way to get the gift is with scissors. An idea that is guaranteed to get a laugh. All you need is the wrapped gift and plenty of cable ties, preferably in at least two colors. And this is how funny gifts are made with them:
First, tie three pieces of one color together, cut off the excess with scissors and place the resulting U-shape under the package. Then attach a fourth cable tie to the two ties that protrude upwards and cut off the excess again. Repeat the whole thing until you have wrapped several rows at equal distances around the package.
Turn the package 90 degrees and now tie three cable ties of a different color together. Place this under the package again as before. But you don't just plug the fourth cable strap into the two protruding ones. Instead, you alternately pass it under and over the first rows beforehand, creating a kind of braided pattern. Now you can tighten and cut the ends. Keep doing this until you have the entire package tied up and therefunny packaginghave.
Streamer spray
The joy about the expected gift quickly evaporates with this funny gift idea. A streamer spray is hidden in a box. If you pull on the cable tie, it will spray you. You need:
- Streamer spray
- Cable ties
- Gift box
- Glue stick (the glue should not be strong)
You can see exactly how you can make these types of funny gifts in the video. In addition to the box, we recommend preparing a reconciliation gift so that the recipient quickly forgets the prank. A bottle of “anti-stress pills” (Smarties, M&M’s, etc.) like in the video is one option. But you can also come up with something of your own. How about a homemade liqueur or a delicious oneGift from the kitchen?
Curious packaging made from adhesive tape
Two layers of duct tape are all you need to get on someone's last nerve. And with that you just wrap the gift box. Start with any wide tape and cover the entire gift, including the bottom.
After that, you can take special gift tape, which is offered with different patterns. This way the gift looks more festive. Stick this on the pack again, add a nice bow and you can give away your present.
Funny gifts – batteries instead of Gameboy
A retro Gameboy is a great pastime that anyone who grew up in the 90s will enjoy. Imagine the happy face when the recipient sees the package... and the disappointment when they only find batteries inside instead. The gift is especially for one90s theme partya great idea.
Pack the batteries in a sealable bag with a label that says “Gift not included” (usually packaging for electronic devices says “Batteries not included”). Of course it's just a joke and then you give the Game Boy as a gift.
A new iPad as an eye pad ;-)
...or is it? For those who understand English, you can use a pun to make funny gifts. For example, iPad is pronounced like “eye pad” (cotton pads). If you have the packaging for an iPad, you can pack a pack of cotton pads in it. You can also gift other things with the help of puns and prank your friend or relative. But also add a weight so that the recipient doesn't immediately notice that something is wrong.
- Fans of the Disney film “Frozen” (frozen/deep-frozen) – Instead of a gift, that with the“Frozen” themehas to do, a pack of frozen vegetables
- iPhone (= I phone – I make a phone call) – For example, put a photo of you making a phone call in the package
Or how about these headphones that play with the words “beats” and “beets”:
Wrong headphones
If you know someone who listens to music almost constantly, this idea is perfect for him or her. They will certainly be very happy about new headphones. But the joy won't last long, because there's actually something completely different in the packaging. If you want to make headphones as fun gifts, you will need:
- 1 box (preferably headphones)
- empty cans of beetroot
- For the Harry
- Hot glue
Put some hot glue on the can and stick the headband there. Repeat the whole thing with the other can and the other side of the headband. And that's all they have to do. All that's missing is the packaging. If you can find a box of headphones, even better. This means that the recipient believes right up to the end that they are really receiving headphones. Also wrap the gift with nice wrapping paper. That makes the excitement even greater.

Funny gifts for men and women with guessing game
At Christmas, grab the presents under the tree, tear open the paper and receive your present – no matter what! You don't have to make it that easy for anyone. Instead, you can turn it into a guessing game that everyone involved will have fun with. No matter whether you are looking for ideas for teenagers, young adults or funny 50th birthday gifts, you can use this original idea not only for the special day, but also for funny Christmas gifts.
The puzzle game itself is very simple. Wrap a box with wrapping paper. There is a card hidden inside with different words that provide clues to the actual gift. For example, for a bicycle you can write down the words pedal, mountain, outside, peaks, etc. Depending on the age of the recipient, the clues may be more or less clear to make it harder to guess. Only when the item is guessed will you receive your gift.
Above allgreat gift ideasYou can give away things that don't fit in the room or can't be packed without people immediately guessing what they are. The actual gift simply remains hidden somewhere else during this time. You can also stack two or three boxes inside each other and label each one with words. But the first two contain lists that make no sense. This way you can continue to keep everyone on the hook. The correct guess words are only contained in the third box.
