Did you have a good relationship with your sister growing up or did you almost kill each other on a number of occasions? Either way, there are times when you have to give her a gift and perhaps you can mend some fences at the same time.
Advice
- Stay away from clothes or anything of a personal nature that she has to wear. Even if you think you've nailed it, trust me, you won't have.
- If you really want to hit it out of the park, find a gift that is connected to something important to her.
Ideas
- Donation to RSPCA – or donation to her favourite charity
- Something for her car or bike
- Handbag or bag – you need to know her style
- Books by her favourite author or on the best seller list – this will require you know what she likes to read
- Flowers – get the right kind for a sister
- Wine decanter
- Small gadgets for her kitchen
