I was wondering if any of you might be able to help me think of a birthday gift. It is for a woman in their 30s. I am open to any suggestions! If anyone wants to share good presents they have received/given in the past that would probably be quite helpful.

I don't want to buy clothes, jewelry, makeup, perfume, spa certificate, bath stuff, or candles, if that helps.

I want to spend around $50-75.

Thanks in advance!

    Make up a kitchen basket:
    For example if she like Spaghetti---
    pkg spaghetti,
    can of sauce
    small container of spinkle cheese.

    If she like pizza:
    small pizza mix
    spinkle cheese
    small can of ham
    smakk can of pineapple

    If she like Chocolat:
    a couple packages of chocolate mix
    a nice cup
    small container of chocolate
    and a peppermint stick to stir it with

    Just a couple suggestions -- there are many many baskets that can be tossed together

    What does she like or what is she into?

    If she's artsy, take her to a show or dinner theater or a play concert. Treat her to a girls night out and give her a small token for her gift.

    Get her something nice for her home.

    If she likes vintage get her an antique jewelry box or something else she will enjoy, a mirror tray, old jewelry, new jewelry. I love to go in antique stores because you can find all sorts of things with tons of character. Good luck. It's hard without knowing what she likes and I know how special it is to get something outside the mainstream Go on etsy.com. There are millions of original items on there and something for everyone. Good luck.
