What to give?


Question Posted Thursday July 14 2005, 9:27 pm

Okay, so my boyfriend's mom is moving away soon, and she and I are the same size, so she's been packing up a couple of boxes of clothes to give me. I appreciate it, 'cause she has awesome style and we have similar tastes, but I feel like I should give her something in return. At least something to remember me by.
I love her like a second mom and I'm gonna miss her like crazy.
What do you guys think I should give her? I can knit, but somehow I doubt she'll want a scarf in Florida, lol.
Ideas? She's artistic, she loves colorful things, etc...

For some reason, artistic people LOVE plates. If you go to Pier 1 or even Marshalls and find her a really nice colorful plate set, she would like it. It's also like a house warming present. You could get her nice colorful mugs also. They shouldn't cost that much. Like 3-4 dollars at the most maybe even 6 or 7. But if you get her 4 or 6 of them, it should be a nice gift for her. My two cousins are very artistic and they LOVE plates, my friend collects colorful plates. So, me knowing artistic people, get her plates. Good luck!

you can make some jewlery if she likes that, or maybe make her a colorful belt, maybe if you can you can knot a purse. Or you could get her some sort of art kit. hope this helps!! :D

Yeah! Knit her something girl. It's definately something memorable. Maybe put some of the ideas together and knit her a pillow with a place to put a picture and put one of you and her in it. Or knit her like a cover or something. It could be as simple as a pot holder. She'll love it. Hope to help you---- Sahara

A scarf doesn't necessarily need to be used as it's intended. Make a small version in a light-weight yarn for her to use as a belt or to hold her hair back.

Even though Florida is generally hot, it can sometimes get cool in the winter evenings. Try knitting her a light-weight blanket. That way every time she snuggles up under the blanket, she thinks of you.

Hope this helps.
