Favorite Girlfriend Gifts on Pinterest | What would you love to give/receive?
May 1, 2012 – 3:58 pm
The greatest gift is a portion of thyself. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Giving handmade and/or thoughtful gifts is such a great way to show a friend how much her friendship means to you.
We women know this – a personalized present is much better than receiving an expected gift. We love to be thoughtfully surprised with a gift that says ‘You’re special to me. You deserve a special gift.’
Pinterest has inspired lots of creative, crafty and even DIY gifts that are perfect for girlfriend gifts – everything from jewelry to home accessories, coffee gifts to chocolate, books to bags – and anything else that might brighten a girlfriend’s birthday, holiday or just turn an everyday into a special day. (What Etsy finds would you love to give a friend? What creative blog posts can you share to inspire others? NOTE: our Fave Etsy Finds Pinterest Board and our Pinterest Pinboard of Girlfriend Gifts.)
Giving handmade and/or thoughtful gifts is a wonderful way to show a friend how special her friendship is to you (or just finding that one perfect thing to make her day – something no one else would know to give her that she’ll love!). Share your favorite girlfriend gifts to give or receive – Etsy handmade gifts, calming gifts, chocolate gifts, gifts of gratitude, blog posts of gifts you’ve given/made, even books/etc. that you know a friend would love to receive. INSPIRE others to give great girlfriend gifts!
We’ve added some of our favorites below and we welcome you to share yours. What gifts would you love to give to or receive from a girlfriend? What presents would make your day if a friend made or gave them to you? What inspires you to Read More »

December 21, 2010 – 11:55 am
It’s four days until Christmas. Have you bought/got all your girlfriend gifts?
To be honest, I haven’t. Life’s been busy. Like REALLY busy. And time and money are both on limited terms this year. So, here are five last minute, affordable girlfriend gifts that we can all give our friends to make sure we don’t miss this holiday and the opportunity to tell/show them how much their friendship means to us:

They all knew she wanted to buy a new coat that was a bit out of her price-range so they all chipped in on it. That way, she’ll be warmed by their friendship and the new coat!

Fall Friendship Girlfriend Gifts
October 25, 2010 – 1:07 pm
Cool weather, colored leaves, football games … ’tis the season for Fall Girlfriend Gifts!
I love Fall and bringing out my sweaters, scarves and tights. It’s not extreme Winter weather yet, but a cozy time of year that makes me want to layer and bundle up – just a bit. It’s a wonderful time of year for comfy long-sleeved t-shirts, hoodies and for sharing girlfriend gifts.
It’s been a little while (oh, since maybe last Fall!) since we shared some of the great girlfriend gifts we have perfect for Fall birthdays or just because gifts. (I’d recommend Read More »

Month of Friendship – Day 7 – Pamper your Pals
September 7, 2010 – 3:15 pm
What girlfriend needs a little pampering? Be the friend that helps her de-stress!
We’re celebrating this Month of Friendship (shared with our girlfriends from the Friendship Circle) by sharing a daily way we can be a better friend – girlfriend gifts we can give, ways to show our friends how much their friendship means to us and just inspiration on appreciating the amazing women who we call our friends.
As friends, we look out for each other, right? Some of our friends, and you know who they are, need some special attention. They’re stressed, tired, overworked, possibly underpaid and, more than likely, under appreciated. They need some ‘me time’ but rarely find it for themselves. They’re amazing women who give tirelessly to their families, jobs, and others. And, you know what? They need some Read More »
