Help! I need a great gift for my best friend
My best friend for nearly 20 years just had a baby girl. For Jordana's birth, she got us a rocking chair that she had painted with Jordana's name and beautiful butterflies. Its just gorgeous.
But now I have no idea what to get her. I want something special that the child will use for a long time. They live in a 1 bedroom so the baby sleeps in their room. They are Jewish (he is Israeli) if that helps anyone come up with something.

Re: Help! I need a great gift for my best friend
For really good friends I always get something personalized...
If not the rocking chair, there is the step stool. toy chest, shelves, bookends etc... Places I get these things from are on LI-- Over the rainbow, SPoiledd Rotten and there is aplace in commack I forget the name...
I love the personalized bath towel or a collection of personalized burpcloths, blanket and bibs...
I always get compliments from my friends because they will always need burpcloths and when you go out it looks nicer.. The blankets can be used in the stroller and the hooded bath towels will always come into use..
I usually get personalized burp cloths and sch for this website:
www.lanascloset.com.. Her stuff comes out fantastic and you can create your own designs...
Fortunoffs has beautiful personalized blankets and towels...

I really like the personalized toy chest - it's something the child can use for years to come, and hand down to their children (I have that, and I'm giving my old toy chest to Alex). I think it would be EXTRA EXTRA special if your DH made it, too!

I agree. I had one made from Off My Painted Rocker (I think that's the name). It's a yahoo store and the woman was great!
