Bonesz Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 Ok I'm HORRIBLE with gift ideas. My gf's birthday is coming up on the 17th and then our 1 year anniversary is on the 20th. I've been stressing like crazy for the past month trying to figure out what I'm going to get her. I try really hard to make my own unique ideas, but I'm horrible at it. And what sucks even more is I'm super short on money. I feel like I'm coming here for advice as a last resort. Our thing is bunnies and cats... What I did for valentines day was I got a big basket with a bed of rose pedals and a bunch of her favorite candy. On top of it, I got a cat stuffed animal and a bunny stuffed animal from build a bear and sowed their hands together to look like they were holding hands. She loved it and thought it was really creative. But honestly I was planning that out every single day from the moment I started dating her... And now I'm out of ideas. Can someone help? I'm desperate
JustJana Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) Charm bracelet. In silver (because it's less expensive) With the a bunny and kitten charm. Then you can add charms for all holidays. Look at that, I just made gift giving super easy for you for the next year or so. Edited July 8, 2013 by JustJana
Author Bonesz Posted July 9, 2013 Author Posted July 9, 2013 Thank you! That's a great idea! Unfortunately I'm going to need something for her birthday also, but hopefully that'll make it easier to think of something
KathyM Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 I vote for jewelry. It doesn't have to be expensive. Just something that has meaning to her. The charm bracelet idea sounds nice. Or a necklace with a special charm on it that has meaning to her.
youngnlove89 Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Today is my boyfriends birthday and I had the same dilemma as you! What is your limit? Do you have a Ross Dress for Less near you? They have some affordable perfumes there or purses, depends on your budget though. You can make mixed CD's You can go to Bath & Body Works; they always have sales there. Such as 3 things for $20. You can make her dinner and a cake, buy a card and pick up some inexpensive flowers (10-20 bucks) You can make her "coupons". For example, one free massage, one free movie night, etc. You can get her a Starbucks gift card. You can get a picture frame with a good picture of you two. With girls, it's more of the thought than anything else. I bet if you got her a card with a really sweet note in it and some flowers and made her dinner and rented a Red Box movie, she would LOVE that. Throw in a romantic massage and she will love you forever!

I might get her the charm bracelet like another poster suggested and I'm thinking maybe the perfume also would be nice It's just nerve wrecking because she's a really tough critic when it comes to perfume, so I CAN'T get it wrong
