There is no doubt that when you are looking for the right gift for wife, the level of accountability is as high as her expectations. And to be candid, getting through all those potential gifts approaches the impossibility of solving a Rubik's cube with your eyes closed. But fear not! This article is your special weapon for wife's 40th birthday ideas that will make her face light up.

First of all, we have to address the usual mistakes in the quest if the best gift for your wife. Overcome the temptation to purchase something which you need to have. 

Gifts That Generate Celebration and Gratitude Long Afterwards

If you are a die-hard fan of something, you can be sure to find a subscription box dedicated to it but here’s a good news, there is almost every interest under the sun covered. Does she ever turn down the chance to try a new type of cheese just because she likes it so much? For that reason, there’s one for everything one wants to subscribe to. Geeky about the obscure documentaries? Yes, the same is valid here as well. Once a month when she opens a package she'll be able to recall your attention. Furthermore, it is an excellent method to make sure your gift is a tad bit different from the crowd of the predictable presents.

Experience Over Material

Sometimes the best present your wife doesn't wrap is not in a box either. Rather than acquiring some of those items (whether it is a cooking class, a surprise travel package, or tickets for a stand-up comedy show), we create memories that outlive most of the material goods. On top of that, it is a skillful technique to have a good time. And not to mention, if you go ahead and book that one activity which has been on your bucket list, it actually benefits you in more ways than one. Yeah, just make sure it's something she will like as well or you'll get nag about it on her next birthday.

DIY Disasters Turned Triumphs

If you are creative enough, you could opt for a hands-on DIY gift option as well. I think there is no better way to prove that you love someone than spending four hours on a hand-made macrame plant holder for them. It may very well become a complicated knot, but believe me, she will be delighted with your efforts and you will both enjoy a good laugh. Just remember to keep the backup gift at hand, in case the DIY initiative fails.

Tech Treats

In the modern world today, whereby everything is digital, a tech gadget could just be the one she was not aware that she needs. Be it in the form of the newest fitness trackers that politely ask where you’ve been, or smart home appliances that answer your questions about your clothes, tech gifts that make her life a little bit easier could add a splash of humor in her daily routine.

Pamper Her

Alternatively, being the given of traditions and culture should be taken into account. A spa day with your routine massage, facial and manicure-pedicure might be just what your friend needs to release her stress and rejuvenate. To clarify it's rebellious and to some extent, sometimes it makes you experience some guilt-free but never ceasing 70-inch television hours.In the hustle and bustle of our ordinary lives, unexpectedly we may face the task of letting our loved one know how much she means to us with the right "wife gift". Nevertheless, all is not lost as long as you add a bit of creativity, sprinkle a little humor, and dose it heavily with thoughtfulness; you will have her not only enjoying the present but also building the foundation of your relationship. Know that the most special gifts are the ones, that make her heart warm for some time, and hopefully a smile and even a tear (the good one, hopefully) as well. Therefore, get down to it and go out to pick up that perfect gift that states, "I Love You So Much and I Love It When You Make Me Laugh."
