Hi, my best friend has asked me to be her daughters Godmother, and I am trying to think of a special gift that I can give to her daughter, - something different than anyone would give.
I am struggling to get some ideas - can anyone help me with this please??
Hi
Childrens prayer bible - has simple verse and some pictures etc
A piece of jewellery - like a small gold cross that she can put on a chain later
Engraved scroll holder for her baptism/christening certificate
HTH!
I bought my god daughter a silver bracelet with a charm on it & each year I'll dd a charm to it on her birthday or special occassions (like starting school etc).
Have you seen the pandora bracelets ? Have a google - they're are many other brands other than Pandora too, but you will get the idea. Why not give her a charm with her birthstone....each year you can then add to the collection. The bracelet (silver) is about $70, and a pretty charm ranges from $30 up. All my girls have them now and each birthday we will add to them.....
My DD's godmother gave her a lovely gold cross on a chain for when she's older. Her godfather gave her a silver spoon and a bible (not a Children's bible, since our church gives all children christened there one).
I like the traditional gifts, since lots of other ppl gave her non-traditional gifts. Her godmother also lent us her christening dress (I didn't have one)!
I did the charm braclet thing too.
For her birthday each year i get her another charm to add to it.
It is something that evolves with her
I'm also interested in peoples suggestions as I also have to buy a gift for my goddaughter!
I brought my god daughter a necklace with a gaurdian angel pendant, its small enough for her to wear now, but will also last her for ever.
My daughter was given a st Christopher pendant, braclets, name brooch, photo album, silver spoon and cup, silver money boxes, jewellery box, silver hairbrush and comb, bible, silver photo frame, collectibale winnie the pooh ornamnent, and a porcelian doll.
