WP gifts

kimp67

I want some opinions here.  I know you all say to shop for the wp like it's their birthdays & they don't have to be the same, but I am completely stumped.  The idea that I'm tossing around is to get each of them Yankee candles (they all love those), maybe with a little tag or label thanking them for being a part of our day & then a gift card to a store they each like.  What do you think?

I love candles, so I'd like it and use it.  To personalize it, perhaps you could get each one a scent that you think each would most prefer.  My DIL loves, loves, loves the sugar cookies scent, while I love the cranberry or apple ones.

That way, each is personal to each friend.

Exactly what I was going to say.  I would love getting my favorite scent and a gift card to my favorite store.  Good idea!

I like it. See if you can do some detective work to find out their favorite scents!

Love it.  And as long as your BMs are fans of Yankee candles and the gift cards are for stores they like, they should like them too.

THX you guys!!! I feel so much better now!  Now we have to work on the bm & gm gifts.  I know it should be fi's job, but we're doing everything together.

The best litmus test is: would it make a good Christmas or birthday gift?  If yes (which it sounds like is the case here), then it's also a good WP gift.

I like the candle and gift card idea, at least its something they can use.

For the guys, we're getting them Capcatcher Bottle Openers from http://ww.capcatchers.com - they're awesome. Seriously.
