If you were to include a gift card, I’m sure they’d appreciate that too.
1. The Sharpie MugThis isn’t a gift you would buy for yourself; but it is something that once you have, you will always use. Plus you can use a mug for almost anything (but please drink responsibly!).
2. Manicure in a JarInexpensive and personal are always good- but really, you had me at Mason jar.
3. The “Why I love you” giftsThis is a gift where you can get in touch with your sentimental side. “52 Reasons Why I Love You” and “Why I Love You: A-Z” are two of my favorites. Disclaimer: give yourself time to make this gift, coming up with that many reasons why you love someone, no matter how close they are to you, can be a tedious task.
4. Monogram Photo CollageEveryone has that best friend you’ve taken a thousand pictures with- literally. From the ugly Snapchats, to the fun nights out- this gift is a great way to celebrate your friendship.
5. Pinterest Recipe BookThink you’re the only one that spends hours comprising those delicious recipes on your “must try” board- you are not alone, my friend. Take your favorites (or your friend’s favorites) and put them in a book. Now you’re one step closer to making that homemade Twix bar- you’re welcome.
6. Instagram Canvas PrintIs your friend super ~ArTsY~**? Take her famous Insta from this summer- when she happened to catch the sunset at the beach- and turn it into a print. So she can remember that time she got 100 likes, of course.
7. Milestone Gift BasketsIt’s your best friend’s 21st birthday and there are two gift baskets options: the one that contains alcohol, and the one that contains the hangover remedy. Both are of equal value, so I suggest going in on this present with a friend.
