what does she like?

try something classic like earrings or bracelets from a store she likes, hey you go to teh mall with her, right? see what stores she goes in to. if you can't find anything, get her a gift certificate for walmart (they have everything) or her fave. store.




also, lip gloss is a girl's best friend! ;-)

Hey! I think you should make something that comes from the heart. Maybe get a cute picture of you two & put it in a cute frame. Or even, a white frame you could decorate youself. My friend did that for me && i LOVED it. =)

Well, I have an idea what you can do. Since you said that you want to "make" her something, go to craft sites and see if other people's creations will spark any ideas for you.

No matter what you make, if she's your friend she'll most likely love the present if it comes from your heart.

Well I hoped I helped, and Merry Christmas to you and your friend.. and good luck!! -Ce

Oh fun! Here a some coolio ideas:
MATERIALS:
Large saucepan
Metal canning jar lid rim
Coffee can
Paraffin wax
Crayons
Paint stirrer
Candlesticks (one for each jar)
Thick widemouth glass jars
Metal tongs
Plastic beads
Tacky glue

Time needed: Under 1 Hour
1. Set up a double boiler to melt the paraffin. Fill the bottom of the saucepan with 4 to 5 inches of water and drop in the canning jar lid rim. Then pack chunks of paraffin into the coffee can, setting it on the jar rim so that it doesn't directly touch the bottom of the pot.

2. Melt the wax over medium-high heat, carefully adding more chunks until the can is about two-thirds filled. To color the melted wax, break half of a peeled crayon into pieces. Add them to the wax and slowly mix with a paint stirrer, then turn off the heat and let the paraffin cool for about 10 minutes (this will help minimize shrinkage when the wax hardens).

3. Using a sharp knife, cut the candlesticks 1/2 inch shorter than the jar heights (adults only). Now, heat the jars by running warm water on the outsides but not the insides (this will help prevent cracking when you pour in the hot wax).

4. With metal tongs, dip the bottom of each candlestick into the melted wax and stick it to the inner jar bottom. When the candlestick ends have hardened enough to hold, carefully pour enough wax into the jars to cover the candlestick tops but not the wicks.

5. Once the candles cool completely, your kids can glue beads to the outside of the jar, arranging them in a border around the rim, perhaps, or creating a multicolor pattern all the way around.


MATERIALS:
Newspaper
Pieces of broken pottery, tiles, beads, marbles, beach glass, shells or charms
Ceramic tile grout (available at hardware stores)
Plastic knife
Terra-cotta flowerpot
Sponge

Time needed: Under 1 Hour
1. Cover the work area with newspaper. Before starting to decorate the pot, sort through the pottery pieces and discard any that have sharp edges (a parent's job).

2. Spread a heavy layer of tile grout onto the flowerpot with the plastic knife. Then press the tile pieces into the wet grout. When finished, spread a little more grout between the pieces so that most of the broken edges are covered.

3. After the pot is dry, wipe off any grout film with a damp sponge.

Also a scrap book of pictures of you and your friend. And like quotes and inside jokes

1. A movie basket. Get a basket and put like 3 of her favorite movies in there, a couple bags of popcorn, a box of candy, and a movie theater girt card.

2. Get a reservation for you and her to get your nails done together and then give her nailpolish, lotions, and bath bubbles.

3. Give her a decorative scrapbook with pictures of you and her since the days you guys first met until now.
