Special Gift Idea

[tarheelmjfan]

Sorry, not Disney, but I need your help! Every year for Christmas, my sister who is closest in age to me, gets me a really special gift. I'm a very sentimental person, and she knows that. She and several of her friends are all very creative & talented. (i.e. one year she had the Inn DH & I were married at painted for me, she's made me a family movie recapping our childhood, and several other priceless things like this.) It's my turn to surprise her. We don't spend a whole lot of money, because we have 5 sisters all with families, and we buy for everyone. I'm hoping some of you creative people can come up with a reasonably priced, one of a kind, gift I can buy or make for her. Please put your thinking caps on, and help me totally surprise her. Thanks :)

how about framing something special for her. Maybe an old picture, a toy from childhood, or something of your mothers or granmothers. For example my aunt gave me a framed hanerchief of my greatgranmothers and my granmothers made a wall hanging of my greatgranfathers ties for her son.

My wife has started taking pictures of our friends houses and turning them into stationary. She is very artistic and draws the pictures so that they look like etchings. If you are not up to this (I know I could never do it), there are some neat things you can do with digital pictures on the computer to make them black and white or some other "artsy" affects. Once you have done this, it is just a matter of getting the stationary and printing the pictures out.

Hope this helps.

What about getting a bunch of pictures of the two of you together and making a scrapbook for her.
