There are some lovely home made crafts pages on facebook selling all sorts of wee personalised trinkets which I think make lovely gifts. I've bought for my sister, niece, Mum and MIL in the past and they all loved them and still have them on display.
I always struggle with my sister as she's a little more picky than most people I know but I got a great bargain on the John Lewis site....50ml Boss Orange EDP for ÂĢ25 (I think). The smaller bottle was dearer so it was a good find.
