Star-spangled robe because she's out of this world (ba dum tsh!). And she'd look ridiculously gorgeous in it. 35 Euro.
Wooden sandwich boards for serving stinky cheese or turkey sandwiches to friends outside, $80 for four.
A beautiful print of an actual snow crystal to remind her of your childhood winters in Michigan, $60.
Portable bonfire log. If you want to gather friends around a crackling flame for a chat, this log just needs a single match to light! How cool is that? $28.
Four of your favorite books to add to her brilliant bookcase.
Morning mug, which understands her need for coffee. $15.
Faceted magnets. They're not just beautiful but are also the World's Strongest Magnets. $16 to $80.
Happy Socks from Sweden, $12. (Or a cute four-pack for $45.)
Heart spoons, 10 euro each.
Clare Vivier clutches have been featured everywhere online, but they'd be perfect for dinners out, drinks with friends, running to meet her husband, $165. (I really like this neon one, too.)
NatureBox, a monthly subscription to surprise her with a box of different healthy snacks every month. We've tried it, and they're DELICIOUS. (Think: carrot chips! blueberry almond bites!) $60 for three months.
Calligraphy return address stamp, since her doctor handwriting looks like this. $68.
Plus a handwritten card from you (and a signature motorcycle drawing from your toddler). $4.50.
P.S. More gifts for sisters, and the 2012 gift guide so far...

ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the address stamp. Really good gift idea!
ReplyDeletethat portable bonfire log is perfect! i've always wanted arrive at parties with my own bonfire...
ReplyDelete-ale
That bonfire log is so cool! What a great find! Also love the idea of the naturebox, looking into it for my mother. The turkish towels are the best, they're the only bath towels I use at all! At first you might think it's odd since they're not terrycloth but they're actually super absorbent and just get better with time.

The portable bonfire log is so cool, great idea!
ReplyDeleteThe History of Love is one of my favorite books. All these gifts are outta this world! ;)
ReplyDeleteI second the person wondering if you can roast marshmallows over the bonfire log... urban s'mores? YES PLESE!
ReplyDeleteGreat suggestions! I love these guides. The clutch is gorgeous and the calligraphy stamp so pretty and convenient.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the gift guides as usual- You find the best things! Also, you popped up in my dream last night- You were part of the cast of the Real World when you were 9 months pregnant with Toby! Haha I had a chuckle when I woke up
ReplyDeletethis is AWESOME!! i'm coveting the turkish picnic blanket and bonfire.
ReplyDeleteThis is perfect. I think I'm more of this sister when it comes to me and my sister. I love it! obsessed with your gift guides.
ReplyDeleteThis was my most favorite gift guide you've done this year! so comical and so many things i had never seen before, especially that coffee mug! so cool!
ReplyDeleteso frustrating! i bookmarked the insta fire on terrain a few days ago as the perfect gift for my sister, i should have known as soon as you posted about it they would sell out. great. now i understand how people feel when their fave tiny restaurant is swarmed by zaget clutching foodies who would never have shown up save for one notable review. i guess it is now back to the drawing board.
ReplyDeletesince you have infinitely more pull than any of us normal folks, feel free to pass along to terrain more of those fire logs would be great for those of us unable to online shop in the middle of class when this post was published.
These are fantastic, I'm partial to the robe and magnets. Everyone can use more cute magnets!

ReplyDeletelove that robe sooo much! i do think you meant pounds for a couple of those items though and not euro. :)
ReplyDeleteWow. I almost feel like I should send this gift guide out to people who are still wondering what to get for me, hah. That kimono is gorgeous! I'm a little heartbroken to find out that they don't ship to the US! :(
ReplyDeleteThat log is SO cool!!!
ReplyDeletePortable bonfire? Seriously? It's just a $30 log with a handle stapled to it.
ReplyDeletethanks for the lovely stamp link! i've been searching everywhere for a unique one to use on our wedding invites...this one was just it!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the address stamp. Really good gifts idea! I should send this gift guide out to people who are still wondering what to get for me..
