I have a very close friend who is a pain to buy for. I have bought some nice small things for her but would like to get something else for about £15. Problem is she buys everything she wants or needs so really hard.
I have trawled Amazon for inspiration but just cant find a thing!
Thanks

A nice scarf or a pair of leather/suede gloves? What about a voucher for s basic manicure?
A bottle of reduced champagne or some nice chocolates?
A book she might like it a microwave heat bag thing?
Sorry- not doing very well today!

Thanks Neeko great suggestions....but
she recently gave me a beautiful pair of leather gloves that were an unwanted pressie and she knits her own scarves!
The heat bag might be good but wanted something a bit more indulgent?
She uses the library so the book is out. One of her little pressies is nail stuff in a pretty bag so manicure is a no.
I told you she wasnt easy!

I sound a bit like your friend and would rather have a nice bottle of wine, flowers or decent chocolates than any 'stuff'.

If she likes knitting...


Not necessarily indulgent but amusing (if she is of the age that knows these songs)
