personalized group gifts

Hi, so for the past 3 years, I've always given my best friend something special like from the group kind of thing. the first year I made her a birthday video with messages from all of her friends and photos from the past. Last last year, I drew her an extra big card, and made everyone sign it. Last year, I made her a scrapbook and had everyone's pictures and had them sign in it..

I want to do something special again this year, but I don't know what to do :/ I feel like I've done everything ha ha.

Hi Cindee,

you have some great ideas there well done. She's a lucky best friend! I have a few ideas I hope might work for you.

1. This is along the scrap book theme, similar to what you did before – buy a really fancy note book, and get every-one in the group to write their best memory of her. It can be a funny memory, or from the first time they met her. This Glitter Galore Guest Book is very classy.

2. Another idea I had would be a CD mix. Ask each member of the group to dedicate a song to to your best friend, with a message off why they thought of that song for her. If any-one's stuck for ideas they could check out 25 Great Friend Songs

3. You might not have found my free birthday message service yet. You can dedicate a page to your friend, add some photo's and share the link for every-one in the group can add their own comments. Click here to find out how.

Well I hope that's given you a little inspiration, let me know if you have any more ideas, as they're great!

Good luck
