Real life giveaways. Need help!

Reserved, because everyone reserves ;D

15seconds and one key i was interested in is ninja'd already..yeh.

Deserved comment because everyone deserves a comment.

I've imagined it as giving the bracelet directly to the person saying "hi, I'd like to make someone happy, here's something for you, it's handmade by me. I have a blog too where I show people that you can make somebody happy with just a small gift and being nice to them so would you mind if I'd took a picture for this blog?" - I'd answer "of course".

answer

1. I would love it; and why is she worried about being found childish since the reciever don't know who made it in the first place?!

2. places where people sit down and look around for a while and rest a bit are great places for these presents. The presents might be overlooked or thrown away if put in buses or restaurants or something

3. blog would be fun to capture the faces of people finding the presents. But a lot of work and more fun if you can get an audience for it. involves some work...

4. people here sometimes decorate lampposts with wool...

Is this inspired by the person leaving crocheted Pokémon at Pokéstops?

cmon... she calls herself a hag? dude tell her she isnt.

EDIT: also u can always leave an anonymous email on the package saying they can post images of themselves with the bracelet IF they feel like it.

1 No it isn't childish. And if it were, there is nothing wrong about being childish in your spare time.

2 No idea. But it should be some clean and friendly areas. So park benches are pretty much perfect.

3 You already figured it out, the blog seems ideal.

4 Maybe share the joy of creating and sharing? Teaching kids in a Kindergarten maybe. You could use the blog to propose your idea to them.

There is nothing childish about it, I think it's a very cute idea :D I think the gifts being used will depend from what gift it is and the person who receives it. For example I wouldn't use a bracelet but I would keep it in its gift wrap forever. I would use a bookmark and I would also keep its gift box. There is no way I would throw away something special like that. Also I love handcrafted gifts no matter the quality.

That's adorable, anyway be careful, leaving a shady package in a metro or in a public place can lead to big misunderstandings.

I've seen a few stations closed because "someone left a package and ran away"

1-It's a pretty good idea and the pitures look great. I would love to find a bookmark like one of those (I work with gloves, so not much of a bracer user...)

2-If she is happy with it, of course it is worth the effort. With the blog on air, she can post pictures of the gifts being placed and some tips about the place, so people can go look for it.

3-The blog is a great idea. Put an email with the message so people can send their selfies with the gifts. Waiting to take their pictures can be very time consuming and maybe frustrating.

4-She could accept requests on the blog and randomly choose one or a few every month. The person would pay for shipping and agree to send a picture as soon as receiving it.
She can also post some tutorial videos on how to make it and give tips to beginners.

1.) I really like this idea, it's a nice surprise for everyone who comes across it.
2.) I don't usually go out often, but the places that you guys are already leaving surprises seems like good places. The bracelets and bookmarks are really cute, I wonder if you could do key chains?
3.) you should definitely put up a blog, it might encourage others to do the same, and the comments would be fun to read. I don't think you should wait for a comment for the "victim", or post an email, but if you make a blog, you could probably leave it on the note so people could check it out.
4.) I doubt your fiancee will look insane randomly giving away things, it might be a little weird, but it's still a nice surprise. I can't seem to think of any other ideas.

Love the idea!

Yours presents are small in size and can be easily put on a bus, metro, train-seat, in coffee-shops, in stores, ext. The crowds there make the "gifter" invisible. And if somebody spots you, a smile and "shush" sigh with gift to the person will make it good.
For the "feedback part" - a simple link and/or QR code to FB page/blog will make it easily accessible for the modern-day social-ninjas. With the simple "Where did you find me?" and "Did this make you smile?" questions it'll be a great start.

There's books on the bus and trains already. Last winter in some cities of Bulgaria we made winter-coat "presents" for those in need. Can't find now useful links of course! But giving is always great!
I am 31 y.o. and smile to strangers everyday. In the 99% grumpy population, if I get 2 smiles back, I know I made someone's day better.
Smiling makes you happy. I'm a chemist, trust me!

I think it is an adorable idea. I think there are people who will be happy about it but also those who do not care. In this regard I would think it is better not to stay close to watch the reactions because it can be discomforting. Also it is more interesting for the receiver if there is noone close so it stays mysterious.

If you want reactions I would suggest making the blog-post and just leaving a web-url with the gift. So people can visit the blog and tell what they thought (and post screenshots). This way she will mostly get positive feedback since the non-carers usually do not comment. She just have to think if she remains "anonymous" in the blog.

As for places it is hard. Depending on how long it takes to find the gift you have to consider the weather. In the open rain will be a problem. But you can't tie those gifts everywhere like in a book store. It will raise suspicion and stuff like that. Also the "giftcard" needs to emphasize it is a gift for a random stranger so they know it is okay to take it.

This is everything coming to my mind at the moment. Maybe I'll add later.

ok, first i have to say that's a very kind idea and more people should think that way... :)

FIRST ANSWER: i am 30 years (male) and make sometimes Origami and leave them in the train or bus i took, maybe someone find them and smiles and gets happy... we are never too old to be social...

SECOND ANSWER: she should choose the places carefuly because of the new "terror" in the media all packages standing around alone are suspicious and if someone calls police it can be a bit trouble... :P if she makes scarfs, hats and those things too she could give them to homeless people first, they don't bite (maybe smell) but will be realy happy about a gift and that people thinking about them (not feeling alone)... if she places them at public places like a library she should make a good readable card with something like "This gift is for the person who found it!"

problem could be that most people are afraid of taking things, because it looks like robbery or something other...

THIRD ANSER: the idea with a email / blog / internetpage is very good + never give your privat adresses away... surprising people that found the gift could be an arkward situation btw but who knows...^^

PERSONAL REQUEST: i life in germany and if your fiancee is ok with it i would gift some of them to people in my local area... :) i would pay the package too...

i would like to write more but im busy right now...:P

Have a nice day...! :D

Reserving this spot to write a proper reply after I reach home. I can't type properly on the phone. Takes too long.

It's a nice idea! She should include a message: "Make someone smile too"

i cant spend much time but i want to answer this about beliving it is too childish
the worst thing in life is thinking that you have understand and the best is keeping an child eye
(well the traduction in english is surely pretty bad but whio cares if the idea is still there I hope)
