Well think about what they like or interested in, like books, dvds or photo frames......

There are some lovely wee christmas plaques in Annes Angels in Wexford that your girls can write a personal message on. It is something that they can hang on their tree every year and it's always nice to get a present with a personal touch

If they are into their garden maybe a voucher for a garden center. I know its a dreary time of year for plants but today is the shortest day of the year but they could stock up on spring flowering plants.

Hi hun, think the woman of the couple has shares in Anns Angels ..... her house is covered in them so kinda want to get something they can both enjoy not just for her as I am sure he is a wee bit fed up of angels lol thumbs up

That's a really cool idea however sadly the wife is in a wheelchair so their garden consists of just concrete and she's not really adept at keeping potted flowers alive ... she'd tell you that herself laugh Original idea though

Oh, these have nothing to do with angels laugh

I just thought it would be nice for the girls to give them something they had a hand in making. A voucher for a restaurant is always a winner though wave

hey serene..

i know its like the run up and ur busy hon ..but what about grabbing a couple of plain vases or pots n having ur girls paint them, very personal .. means its coming from the girls..they have fun too..u could get on with ur wrapping while they are painting...or something..but they be messy individual lil treasures for life..

u could even throw in a cheap easy to look after plant in them or some flowers..
