Any christmas ideas for my sister

wendyphant

Here is my sister's profile and I need some ideas for her up to £40

She is 28 single has a high flying job only ever wears real tiffany jewellery and goes to the states a couple of times a year to buy new stuff!!!!
She has a new car every year:p
Has no outgoings because she lives with my mum and has a high paid managment job. She has no sense of money as in she will be as happy with a £2 pressie as with a £200 pressie which makes things harder:eek:

She dotes on my son and has hundreds of photos ect of him and last year we bought her a peice of fingerprint jewellery which she adored as much as a finger painting by my son.:j





HELP :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

lol, every time someone asks for help on a pressie I always give the same idea - goodies from Lush!! (hopefully you'll know which shop that is and have one near, if not they are online - www.lush.co.uk )

They do have some gorgeous products, yes a little pricey sometimes, but they are so unusual compared to normal "smellies", and as they say you arn't paying for the packaging, as all the money goes into excellent quality ingrediants. They have some really quirky christmas ones aswell!

They have a huge range of giftboxes this year, ranging in prices, they look so nice aswell as they are wrapped for you in gorgeous paper. Alternatively you can choose them seperately.

I just clicked on the link to make sure it works and spotted that with any order you receive a free 100g of snow fairy pink shower gel which smells divine!! you could always keep that for yourself, if you didn't want to give it away

You could always get something aswell to go with one of those or spend the whole amount on a gift box, I'm always happy with gifts from them though, it's exciting to have a look through the box and see what goodies you get inside!!

HTH!!

Adopt a child in Africa or India for her? A locket with a picture of your son in?Does she have any hobbies?
She is your sister so you must know what she likes?

I wish I did know what she likes the main thing is with her having money when she wants something she buys it so she never "needs" anything.:money:

Going back to Lush....... I've been distracted by it instead of looking on MSE!!

If you click on the picture of the boxes piled up by santa on the link I put above it takes you to a page showing gifts by price range (i tried doing a direct link but it wouldn't work?! )

They have also put pictures of what is in each box, and even better made little videos underneath where a member of staff shows you what you are getting inside it!! The stardust one is top of my list this year!!

Does she like chocolate?? you could get something from Thorntons personalised saying "dear Auntie xxxxxx, Merry Christmas love from xxxxx (your sons name) I'm sure she'd appreciate you taking the time to get something done like that aswell.

ooh I'm feeing so festive now!!!

Jewellery box? Champagne? Harmonica?

A harmonica should never be ruled out too quickly.

If she doesn't care about the money, go for something that will really mean something.
why don't you get your son to make her a calendar with a separate work of art for each month, say portraits of the family members or seasonal images
you can get the calendar part here: http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/ you can customise the page (add 3 blank lines to give some room for writing). print out each month on medium weight card and do the picture for the following month (upside-down on the back, then bind together eg by stiching or hole punch and ribbon).

what about some sort of childhood memories box? you could perhaps get some dvds/cds, retro sweets, photo album of you as kids, that sort of thing?
