A Girlfriend Christmas Gift Idea
10 Creative Gifts for the Girl You Love

Whether you're the kind of guy who is looking for your girlfriend Christmas gift idea months in advance to have adequate prep time or the kind who is searching the day before Christmas, you can find an idea here that will show her how much you like making her smile.

I repeat here my best advice on giving gifts to women - If you choose a practical gift, turn it into something really special by including one small feminine gift inside or along side it. Add a pair of earings, a toe ring, a quality hair clip, or a gift certificate for a massage or make over. Hide this item inside the other gift. Just make sure she finds it!

1. Custom pair of Jeans or Jean Skirt - Cut off the bottom hem and fray the edges. Use a fray stop product if you want the jeans to last longer. Iron on embroidery or patches. Add paint to the seams, if you want, and stitch on ribbons or leather lacing or create a custom belt with beads.
2. New or Vintage Cosmetic Case - Look for the case in antique shops or thrift stores. Personalize it with travel stickers and international clip art from the web, painted mesages, and out-of-the-ordinary ribbon glued down across the case or wrapped around the handles.
3. Handpaint a small sign for her with a verse or poem about love. For example:

   Let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. 1 John 3:18

   True love doesn't have a happy ending: True love doesn't have an ending. Anonymous

   A heart that loves is always young. A Greek Proverb

   To get the full value of joy, you must have someone to divide it with. Mark Twain

   Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 1 Cor. 13:4-7

4. Give her supplies or equipment for an activity you enjoy together. For instance: fishing, woodworking, movie making, home repair, etc.
5. Use a video camera to interview your friends and family about her and your relationship. Ask them for special memories of the two of you, predictions of the future, what her qualities are, and why they think you two are right for each other.
6. Here is a girlfriend christmas gift idea to help the winter go by. Give her an invitation to join you for a "world tour" through the month of January, visiting all the ethnic restaurants, grocery stores and shops in a big city.
7. Use a computer and 12 photos of the two of you together to make her a mini calandar for her car or desk.
8. Give her a gift certificate for a costume rental at a local costume shop.
9. This girlfriend christmas gift idea doesn't seem exciting...until the first time you need to use it. Pay for her to be a member in a roadside assistance program so that she will never be stranded.
10. Find out what traveling art displays will be coming to art museums near you. Buy tickets in advance and give her an invitation to go with you at a time when one of her favorite artists/styles will be open for viewing.
