My friend's birthday is coming up and she is a big Friends fan. I already have a Friend's Cookbook for her so I was hoping to make a Friend's gift basket. She has to travel on a plane with it so I can't get anything to huge, and I don't want to spend too much on it. She already has the trivia game. Any Friends fans have creative ideas?
-
What about doing a coffee theme and making your own Central Perk labels for everything?
-
@highwire: Cute idea she does love coffee too!
-
I'm assuming she has all the DVDs already... Something related to lobsters? Something that says "how YOU doin?" The first season of "Joey" or Jennifer Anniston movies? I'm sure you could buy Friends merchandise still, or else find something cute and DIY your own (especially t-shirts or coffee mugs). A creepy picture with a girl climbing out of it (Gladys)? The Friends soundtrack? A picture frame to hang over her peephole? A chick and a duck? YEAH, get her a chick and a duck!
-
@tororojo: Teehee! A peephole frame! That is super cute.
-
@highwire: Someday when I'm no longer renting, I'm TOTALLY gonna have a peephole frame at home!
-
A ridiculously large coffee mug like they used at Central Perk?
-
A pair of "Thanksgiving Pants!"
-
For some reason the sayings of each person came to mind... Joey's "how YOU doin?", Monica's "I know!", Ross's "We were on a break!" ... haha. Not sure how that would tie in though.
-
@highwire: I was thinking the same thing!
-
Lobster oven mitts would be so cute! i love this show, but i'm coming up blank for the time being.
-
What were the awful presents Joey got everyone for Christmas that one year? I remember one was a can of soda. You could do that as a joke. I like the Central Perk coffee label idea, too.
@Mrs. Blue: Or apartment pants!
-
The peephole frame is an awesome idea. I keep thinking of smelly cat, but that doesn't really lend itself to a great gift.
-
I like the peephole frame idea
-
@eiko2010: windshield wiper blades with a new car scent thing, condoms "ribbed for your pleasure", a can of soda, and paper toilet covers!!
-
Something that has "Pivot!!!" on it.
-
Thanks everyone, such great ideas!
@tororojo: If only she didn't live in a teeny tiny studio apt and have to take her gift back on a plane with her. I'd love to make her a Gladys!
Something else I'm surprised nobody mentioned is that toy that they had hanging that they used to write messages. I can't think of the name. She's going to love this gift!
-
Magnadoodle!!! They make mini ones of those, I think.
-
@artbee: An Etch-a-Sketch!! The on in Joey's apartment??
-
@tororojo: Oh yea!! Magnadoodle! Got those confused!
-
@tororojo: They do! Hubs and I have one on our fridge.
-
@Rubies: omg yes!! That is the funniest scene
