Q. What's an original gift idea? Like, not an iPod, giftcard, or cellphone? It can be a bunch of items, themed or random, or one bigger item. My budget is 40$ Thanks in advance!
A. 1 - Fashionista girl: Buy a plain tote bag from a craft store (like Hobby Lobby) and decorate it. You can sew/applique some different fabrics (that match, of course) to make a design or just as a color theme. Rhinestones, glitter paint, ribbons, etc. are also great. Awesome gift, and she'll be the only girl wearing it! She can use it to put her school books in or whatever.
2 - Sweet girly girl: Make a photo album/scrapbook with pix of you 2 together, your pets, family, vacations, etc.
3 - Hippie girl: give her a gift that's good for the environment as well, like a basket filled with stuff like organic chocolate, all natural lip balms, recycled jewelry, etc.
Other ideas:
If you know how to crochet or knit, try making her a scarf. (Crocheting is easily learned)
Find a brownie recipe and layer all the dry ingredients in a jar. That way she can just combine that with eggs and milk and she has a yummy treat! (Don't forget to decorate the jar! ;))
And remember:
No matter what kind of girl she is, chocolate is always good! =D
Good luck and happy holidays!
