Best Birthday Gifts for Sister

Your sister is your soul mate. She is sugar and spice and everything nice. You fight with her, you share with her, you tease her, you love her and there are days when you hate her but you absolutely cannot live without her. Take the opportunity this birthday to tell her how much she means to you. 

Part of buying something for your sister is also a test of how well you know her.  It is not about buying her a bauble or trinket but the kind she would like which is the real litmus test.

Being thoughtful with your gift is very important. If your sister has a hectic lifestyle where she gets little time for herself, send her for a spa session or book her for a pedicure at the salon so she can put up her feet and relax.

Make it personal. All of us love things with our names and photos on it. Make her a picture collage of her favorite memories growing up win a nice frame or put her name on a mug or a keychain with a message on it will surely bring a smile to her face every time she sees it. If you are feeling adventurous enough, make her chocolate truffles or brownies and write a message on them. Personalized gifts go a long way in making the person feel special.
 

Pamper her endlessly. Gift her flowers, take her out for lunch to her favorite Chinese restaurant, and gift an oversize tote bag to carry all her things, buy the perfume she loves or a pendant she has been coveting for a long time. Everything she has wanted but hasn’t gotten around to buying for herself today is the day to buy them for her.

Relive your childhood. Revisit the joints where you hung around as kids and arrange an evening out with all her old friends. Transport her back to the happy, childhood days.

All of the above are just expressions of your love which are great. But the most invaluable gift we can give anyone is time. Time is precious to all of us. Give her some amount of time with you. Let her decide how she wants to use or spend the time. Maybe you could help her with her chores or simply just have a cup of tea together and talk about old times.

Whatever you do make sure you put a smile on her face. After all it is her day.
