What to get the woman who has EVERYTHING!

I've almost finished my shopping, with the exception of my aunt.  Last year, I just got her a gift card for a restaurant she and my uncle like, but she gave me generous gifts this year for law school graduation and my wedding, so I want to do something really nice for her.  Problem is, she literally has everything.  She's an Air Force wife who's been all over the world.  She does have a whole room dedicated to crafting, and she loves trying new things.  I'm not incredibly crafty and when I am, I just scrapbook (which she does way better than me, so making her one is out, too!).  Does anyone have any good suggestions as to maybe new crafting stuff that's out there?  Thanks!

Re: What to get the woman who has EVERYTHING!

  • Maybe a few gift cards, to Michaels or online specialty craft retailers AND a giftcard to a local spa??? Even if a person doesn't have everything, they might not pamper themselves or feel bad doing so.  Getting a gift certificate to a spa makes her have to spend time on herself....
  • Great idea with the spa... I think I'll have to try that.  Thanks! :)

  • She probably has a Cricut, but if not, why not that? Or if she does, see if there are any new cartridges she wouldn't have yet?

     I'm a huge fan of gift baskets, so if you get the cartridges, you could add other stuff, as well. 

  • When I have to buy a gift for someone who has everything I start looking at experiences rather than things.  Tickets to a concert/show/play/favorite team sporting event, etc.  I think a spa day would be an awesome gift and very thoughtful.

    I'm taking my g'kids to a waterpark hotel for their Christmas gift because those little darlings don't need one more single toy and they will get enough "things" for Christmas as it is.  This is my second (and last) year to do this but I'd rather make some fun memories than buy more Barbie shoes and nerf guns.

    Are there any events you think she might like?

    They have all kinds of apparel for crafters.  I've bought some of the cutest scrapbooking t-shirts and sweatshirts here.  Today only, they're running a special. Buy a $50 gift card for only $25.
