Help with gift ideas...

[Wishing on a star]

I have been working with some ladies on a big project. And I would like to present each of them a gift for their hard work and help.

This is not work related. It would be like a Church or School group type situation. I would like to present them with something unique and special.

Unfortunately, I am not the best at gift-giving! This is not something that I have occasion to do very often.

I need some great gift ideas!

How about a tart burner with some spring scented tarts.
Or Yankee Candle is having an online sale on their jars.

I don't know how much you want to spend but gift cards are great gifts. Who can't use a restaurant gift card.

I just ordered trophies for women that helped me a great deal on the school play. Also cards from Hallmark.com that were all about great 'teamwork'.

Since it is a church-related project, how about little angel statues. Then you can put on the card "You were an angel for helping me".

Here are some ideas:
A gift card to a local spa
A throw blanket
picture frames
Cookie jar with handmade cookies inside or a recipe book.
a potted plant
A picnic basket
wind chimes
something hand painted from a pottery shop
A birdfeeder
A gift card for the movies and a restaurant

My first choice would be to find a piece of hand painted pottery. I got a nice plate for Christmas from the people I work for. It was a plate with butterflies on it and is very beautiful.

Thank you all.

There are some ideas here that I hadn't thought of.

I also thought it might be cute if the gifts were kind of related to the jobs they did.

Hey, something just came to mind... How about a certificate for a Manicure for the one who did all the typing and 'typed her fingers off'.

Maybe a restaurant certificate for an adult Dinner for Two (away from the kids) for the one who is working with kids.

This brainstorming might be helping after all!
