We usually give money, but my favorite gift from our youngest daughter's christening was a beautiful decorative picture frame. I know that picture frames tend to be something people give when they don't know what to buy as a gift, but I don't remember what other gifts/money were given or by whom that day, but I know exactly who gave us this gift (and ironically, the woman wasn't even invited to the event and attended a different church. She was simply a friend who wanted to give a gift for the special occasion.). It isn't a christening themed frame, but I put a picture of our daughter in it from her christening day and have it in our bedroom where I have looked at it and got that "I love that frame!" feeling every day for the last 19 years.
