Friendship Day is just around the corner! In Goa, International Friendship Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of August. This day is a celebration of the meaningful bond of friendship, a bond that is created on the foundation of love, compassion, motivation, joy, and interests.

As children, we would eagerly await this day to tie friendship bands on our friends. However, as we grew older, friendship became more than just bands. Now, it is about giving our friends customised gifts to make them feel special and loved. Here are four interesting customised gifting ideas you should consider for this upcoming Friendship Day!

1) Handmade products by Faye D'Souza

We all love cute, customised gifts to give to our loved ones. Then connect with Faye D'Souza on Instagram. She currently runs a small business called "Scissors & Paper" that offers customised pieces, macramé, and gift hamper boxes. If you're looking for something creative, Faye is your go-to girl.

If you are placing an order for a gift hamper, the process tends to be the longest to be made since her work is unique, creative and time-consuming, Macramé products, on the other hand, are made more quickly.

All of the products are handmade and customised, so they are all priced differently. This Friendship Day, ‘Created by Faye’ has introduced macramé keychains with personalised name tags with messages such as "Thank you for always being there."
