What would you get Father's partner?

What would you get your Father's partner? Bit of context:

  • He's been with her two years
  • she's in her fifties
  • she doesn't like to indulge food wise
  • she's quite minimalist with house decor (she's redecorated my Dad's place black and white) though she's into diamantés

Not sure what to get her but don't want to not give her anything (there have been issues about how all of my Dad's kids (6 of us) hate her Hmm...)

Don't want to spend more than £15.

Something for the garden. Garden centre vouchers or a fruit tree.

An experience. So voucher for her nails or book tokens.

Diary or black and white calendar

these coasters?

A blingy candle?
It's just a gesture, she can either use it or regift it!
My mum sometimes brings me them round courtesy of her favourite shop tk maxx, quite jazzy in design. I'm not sure why, I don't really burn candles, but some of them are quite pretty and I do burn them in the kitchen when I have them.

Pashmina / scarf / gloves

Posh tea / coffee if she drinks them

a subscription to a magazine such as Living etc , only £16 if you use Tesco clubcards, or Red, Glamour, whatever she might like

Asda have some mirrored diamanté photo frames that are relatively cheap.
Or a candle.
I think you only need to buy a small token gift. Even a bottle of wine would be fine

Any thing consumable would be good, a candle, or bottle of Prosecco.

Waitrose have a DOC Prosecco just within your budget.

Hehe, sounds like my dad's partner - I'm giving her a regifted smelliest set Xmas Grin

Wine

Thanks for suggestions! I bought a bottle of Prosecco that was on offer at Sainsvurys, at least my dad can enjoy that too!!
