I would get her the heater and application kit too 👍🏻 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-a-12-year-old-girl#post-2373716 Mon, 30 Nov 2015 21:18:22 +0000 MaryM 2373716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Or, there are Sally Hanson decals you can buy in stores that are cheaper, but they literally stink (like acetone) and are way harder to remove. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-a-12-year-old-girl#post-2373715 Mon, 30 Nov 2015 21:17:00 +0000 MaryM 2373715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Let me know if you don't know anyone selling jamberry (it's a home sale type thing, but I could wall you a link if you need one) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-a-12-year-old-girl#post-2373680 Mon, 30 Nov 2015 20:53:00 +0000 PinkElephant 2373680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Thanks! I was thinking of winter accessories but just saw a pic of her choir concert and it looked like she picked out new ones for that. I might still do it if I see something I love, though!</p> <p>@MaryM: Thank you! this may be the second time you've saved me - first with the planters for storing hats &amp; gloves, now this. I didn't even know what Jamberries were, but she will love it for sure. I think the Bezel box is a little mature for her, but I'm tucking it away as a birthday idea for her 14 year old sister! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-a-12-year-old-girl#post-2373513 Mon, 30 Nov 2015 17:58:00 +0000 MaryM 2373513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How about a jewelry subscription box? My coworker gets Bezel box and I've liked a lot of what she's gotten. </p> <p>My niece is 12 also and is crazy about jamberries, so I'm getting her some wraps for Christmas. I threw a party so I'd be able to get her some with the party rewards and be able to give her more than just a sheet or two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-a-12-year-old-girl#post-2373487 Mon, 30 Nov 2015 17:34:54 +0000 Smurfette 2373487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My budget for my cousins daughter is much smaller but I got her a scarf and a pair of boot socks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-for-a-12-year-old-girl#post-2373468 Mon, 30 Nov 2015 17:17:24 +0000 PinkElephant 2373468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually my 12 year old niece is the easiest person to shop for...we have similar tastes....but I'm really struggling this year. I've asked for suggestions, but she told my sister (her mom), "Auntie PinkElephant always picks such awesome presents, she doesn't need ideas!" EEEK, that's a lot to live up to.</p> <p>So anyway...she is into musical theatre, choir, and fashion (both wearing and creating-she has a sewing machine)....and likes on-trend/designer brands. This summer it was Lilly Pulitzer, not sure what is cool for that age group now. </p> <p>She's small for her age, so adult size clothes (and often accessories) are a bit big, but kiddie stuff can be too juvenile. I was looking at subscription box services, but a lot of the crafty ones seem babyish, while the adult ones are too adult for her (ie, she's not going to use a set of DIY coasters).</p> <p>Thanks so much for any help. Being stumped on this one is making me feel really old and mom-ish!!</p> <p>Oh, budget is $50-ish. </p>
