Written by Daniel Bell | Mon, Dec 09, 2013 @ 08:58

As you make your way down your holiday shopping list, searching for the perfect gift for all those special people in your life, there is likely at least one person who is almost impossible to buy a gift for because they already seem to have everything. 

We know wandering around your area retail outlets or shopping malls hasn't inspired any unique gift ideas, so we put together a list of unique, custom-designed, personalized, one-of-a-kind, (and sometimes weird) gift ideas to help you out. Some of these gift ideas allow you to custom design the product, and some allow you to personalize the gift with the addition of a name, initials, monogram or custom message. It's hard to get more unique than a gift you custom-design and personalize yourself. 

Scroll through the list and find your inspiration. Whether you’re shopping for mom, dad, children, your best friend, or even a co-worker, there are 10 unique gift ideas right here, and you don't have to wait in line. 

As our gift to you, we're offering FREE ground shipping* on all orders during the holidays. So if you buy anything on our website, including the custom-designed, personalized floor mats from our Design Your Car Mats™ line and the stylish, luxury floor mats from our Car Couture™ line, you get free shipping. GGBailey.com is the only place on the internet where you can custom design and personalize your floor mats, and we can make custom-fit floor mats for all makes and modelsAs always, all orders are processed in just two business days, so you won't have to wait long to receive your unique gift from GGBailey.com.

And if you like this post, here are a few other holiday-themed blog entries you might enjoy:

Scroll on down past the photo of Santa loading presents onto his custom trunk mat from GGBailey.com to check out our 10 unique gift ideas for the person who has everything, and comment at the bottom to let us know what you think or share your own ideas.

1. For anyone who drives: Custom-designed, personalized floor mats

We may be biased, but at GGBailey.com, we think our personalized car floor mats from our Design Your Car Mats™ line make great gifts, and they are unique because you design your own car floor mats. As you saw above, even Santa Claus loves our custom floor mats and cargo mats! All you need to know is the year, make and model of your friend or family member's vehicle to design custom floor mats they will love.

There are only four steps to design a set of personalized floor mats but thousands of possible design combinations. You choose from one of 10 carpet colors, pick one of 41 edging options, then pick an optional heelpad shape and color, and then personalize it. You can choose an embroidered name, initials, or message of up to 10 characters (including spaces) or add a monogram. We have two font styles available -- block text or script -- and 18 color choices. If you prefer an embroidered image instead of custom text or a personalized monogram, we also have 16 logos to choose from. Click here to see more details for each step.

Each set of designed mats are one-of-a-kind, and we can make custom-fit floor mats for all makes and models. You can even personalize a trunk mat or cargo mat with a custom message or monogram! All mats are made and shipped within two business days, so you won't have to wait long to get your hands on this unique gift.

Click the buttons below to Design Your Car Mats™ or shop Car Couture™ if you prefer to give leopard, zebra, camouflage, or oriental floor mats. We have 11 patterns to choose from in our luxury floor mat line. 

2. For anyone who really loves their pet: PetChatz...

This would be a totally unqiue gift -- it's a device that allows users to communicate with their pets using their smartphone or computer. And by communicate, we mean PetChatz allows you to video chat with your pooch, deliver treats, and even release your personal scent (yes, you read that correctly). PetChatz also has sound and motion detection, so you´ll know when your pet is around. The system is remotely controlled through the PetChatz Web site, a tablet or smartphone app. You can see a video and get more details about the product on blessthisstuff.com

3. Or pet placemats and pet car mats

If you know someone who really loves their pet, then we also have a gift idea from GG Bailey. Check out our For Your Pet section to see our selection of pet placemats, including our latest design shaped like a bone, and pet car mats. Each of our pet products is made with the carpet from our Car Couture™ line, so you will be giving the pet lover in your life the gift of luxury. And you get FREE ground shipping* during the holiday season.

4. For anyone who likes a clean space: Remote controlled mop...

It's a mop that you can control with a remote while you relax. OK, the RC Sugoi Mop is probably intended more for fun than for actual cleaning, but it certainly fits the unique gift bill. Six AA batteries are required (two for the controller, four for the mop) to run the mop, which can be purchased from Amazon or directly from japantrendshop.com. That site has a neat little video (entirely in Japanese) that shows the RC mop zooming around a wooden floor while not actually getting much work done. 

5. Or car cleaning supplies

If you prefer a more serious gift for the neat freak on your list, then we have another unique gift suggestion for you. GGBailey.com offers three quality cleaning tools anyone who like a clean vehicle would appreciate.

First, for the outside, our Sheepskin Washmitts, made of 100 percent Merino sheepskin, are soft enough to be ideal for dusting, polishing and washing your car without worrying about damaging the paint. Available in black or grey, our washmitts can be used both wet and dry and with any soap that is safe for vehicle paint. Simply rinse your mitt afterward and it will last a lifetime.

For the interior, we also offer a Sheepskin Duster, ideal for safely removing dust and debris for your car dash, and our Oreck XLAUTO Car Vacuum. This lightweight sleek silver vacuum plugs into the cigarette lighter and has a 15-foot cord for reaching into the trunk and other hard-to-reach places.

6. For anyone who likes interesting home decor: Scrabble Rug...

We found this silly, over-sized Scrabble board rug on theawesomer.com, and you can also find it on Amazon. It measures 78"x78" but unfortunately does not come with tiles, so you won't be playing over-sized Scrabble anytime soon. This would make an interesting gift for anyone who loves the word game, and it could be hung on the wall as art if the recipient preferred not to step on the double and triple word scores.

7. Or home mats

If the picky person on your list requires a unique home decor item that is a bit more classy, then you should browse the GGBailey.com For Your Home section. 

In addition to sheepskin rugs, we have home carpet mats available in medium (30"x17"), large (48"x25"), extra large (57"x25"), and double door sizes (72"x32"). There's no need to sacrifice fashion for utility when you can get a GG Bailey mat that protects your floors in high-traffic areas while adding style that complements your fine decor. Whether the desired style is traditional, contemporary, or a little of both, you'll find the right fit among our 11 designs of Car Couture™ luxury-weight carpet.

Our woven polyurethane carpets come in Beige Chariot, Topkapi, Red or Black Oriental, Beige Plaid, Camouflage, Leopard, Zebra, and Tiger. Our Subtle Style carpet, available in beige and grey, is specially made with high-quality nylon yarn that is cut to create a simple and elegant two-tone pattern.

8. For anyone who likes a comfy seat: beanbag hammock chair...

It's a beanbag chair, and a hammock, at the same time! Le Beanock™ is made for those who want to relax and literally feel like they're floating on air. Attaching its support structures to the ceiling means that you, or whichever lucky person on your list receives this as a gift, are able to lay down and relax. Stylish and unique, it's a new twist on the beloved bean bag. Available in a range of colors or with the U.S. or British flag, there are plenty of options to match the taste of the person on your list. 

9. Or sheepskin seat products

To give your picky person a unique gift that will add style and comfort to their drive, consider GGBailey.com's Sheepskin Seat Vest Cover or Sheepskin Bucket or Bench Seat CushionAvailable in seven colors, our sheepskin seat accessories are universal fit for all seat types and they are every bit as durable and elegant as they are comfortable.

Our thick, deep Sheepskin pile provides natural springy comfort allowing air flow, making seating cool in Summer and warm in Winter. The patented trim cut allows your seat to show, which pleasantly accents your leather or fabric seats.  All of our Sheepskin products are made from the highest quality 100% Merino Sheepskin and with non-skid backing. 

10. Gift certificates

So you may be thinking that gift certificates aren't really a unique idea, but they can be if they are good for a unique website offering one-of-a-kind products. At GG Bailey, we offer gifts certificates of various amounts that can be used on anything we sell, from our custom floor mats in the Design Your Car Mats™ section and the luxury floor mats of our Car Couture™ line to our home and pet products

If you give a gift certificate, your loved one can visit our site and design their own custom floor mat themselves, ensuring they get the perfect fit and style for their vehicle. Our gift certificates start at $50 and there is no limit to the number you can purchase. They do not expire and can be used at any time for anything on our website.
