Kari C in SC Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 We are getting our 14 old a lot of things she would just normally get like yoga pants, pj bottoms, socks, Hello Kitty t-shirt, gymnastics shorts, shoes, one of those themed winter hats, etc. Simply because she is hard to buy for. I know that typically I would provide clothing not as a gift, but have found that with teenagers that just becomes the gift! I did get her Converse shoes that were over what I would normally spend. I think this will be her favorite gift! I am also giving her a homemade gift card to get her ears double pierced. And... her bigger gift is that she is getting my gently used Kindle Fire because I am upgrading to an ipad. Basically, I have begun walking around behind her taking note of what clothing or other items she likes and then I go back and buy it for Christmas or her birthday.

astrid Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Molly is 15 and I totally HEAR YOU! :-) Â So far I've got a Beatles iphone 4 case, some books, clothes, THIS portable ipod speaker, and a few things from Etsy. She LOVES the Beatles and I found a few neat gifty things-- song lyric necklaces, etc. Does she have any sort of favorite bands, sports, interests? I've found lots of great gifts on Etsy, reasonably priced. Plus i like the idea of supporting local crafters. Hope that helps; I"l lhave my eyes on this thread looking for replies!

Plateau Mama Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Well I won't be much help. I'm getting my DD catchers gear. Everyone in the family is giving her $$ or gift cards towards this.

Karen in CO Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 My dd will turn 12 right before Christmas. She's getting an archery set, a Mocking Jay pen, and some jewlery.

sheryl Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 DD turns 14 in May.  For Christmas I have only ideas at this point. She will NOT get everything on this list from us, but a few. It would be nice if extended family would follow this "wish list".  Robe Leather boots (riding/fashion combo look) Earrings (she just got her ears pierced 4+ weeks ago) Jewelry Holder (for those new earrings, braclets, necklaces, rings) Nice birthstone (real) necklace (we mined for this stone, had it cut/set) Amazon gift card (mp3 songs and other misc)  Needs: socks, shoes  That's a start only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 My 12, almost 13 yo dd, asked for drawing paper and pencils since she's into drawing right now, an owl plushie, and Creatures 2 game for the computer (replacement for old one that doesn't run anymore). Last year she wanted yarn and crochet hooks. Oh yes, and Starbucks gift cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenNC Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 We're looking at an itunes gift card, art supplies, her favorite candy, manga (or a gift card to the local used bookstore that carries a lot of manga), a makeup/jewelry case with some makeup samples to experiment with (at home, not out--except for nail plish and lip gloss), mockingjay earrings, etc. We're also planning to buy some Dr. Who machine embroidery patterns from Etsy and have a local business embroider a Dr. Who scarf for her (tardis on one end, dalek on the other). I think I have enough fabric to make a matching hat, ear warmer and maybe wrist warmers.If I can, I'm hoping to make some little arumigumi figures---David Tennant, grim reaper, cthulu.zx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterPan Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Well what I WANTED to get her was a potato ricer or a nice potato masher (or both). (I try to buy nice things that will last till she gets married.) Cooking things always go over big here. I ended up getting her little dishes you can use to make individual pies or pot pies. Should be fun this winter! Last year I got her a donut machine (Sunbeam, under $30), which she adores. Last year I made her a kit with supplies to make the recipes in this book. http://www.amazon.co...=ecobeautyĂ¯Â¿Â½Ă¯Â¿Â½She LOVES the book and makes the recipes frequently! She even gives them as gifts to her girlfriends. I got her a cute little lounging robe so she'd have something to wear while masking her face, hehe.  Slippers and socks always go over big here. I asked her grandma to look into a Wusthoff knife for her. She has outgrown the handle on mine (literally!) and needs a bigger style. She also adores the BH&G cookbook her grandma gave her a couple years ago. It has step by step pictures. Anything with pictures is good.  I've thought about getting her a subscription to Martha Stewart.  Do you have an ipad or tablet? Then you could do digital magazines and not have the mess.  You could find a mystery series she likes and get the books in the series. My dd has been on a mystery kick lately.  You could get her a scrapbook and supplies (a pad of paper, the proper tape). I did that a couple years ago, and my dd enjoys it.  Or just go to Kitchen Collection and walk around. You'll surely come out of there with something fun. She likes her apron and pretty spatulas.

Unicorn. Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Both dds are getting 2 new swimsuits, Â Dd1 is getting a Hunger games t-shirt, and probably a portable dvd player. (She can't read or anything else in the car because she gets carsick, but she can watch movies, and has never asked for anything expensive before, so....) Probably some boots she wanted. I really have no clue. Â Dd2- so far I have a pair of Cookie monster pajama pants, a Hogwarts alumni t-shirt, and I just ordered her a Dr. Who Tardis beach towel, and aDr. Who Tardis laplander (knit hat) Â stockings for both: 2 pair of fuzzy socks, and Hunger games bracelets, and a cool pair of hunger games socks for dd1. They will probably get some nail polish, hair bands, lip gloss and maybe some mascara for their stockings too. Maybe some new earphones, duct tape, gift cards to a local coffee shop, and dd1 wants some more acrylic paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXMomof4 Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Dd will be 13 in January and will be getting a phone then. She knows that so I bought her a cute little Betsy Johnson phone purse. Other than that I am clueless. She would love some Hollister clothes, but I can in no way justify paying $50 for a hoodie that she'll get tired of in a month. I've considered getting her a gift card to. A consignment store here. That's somewhat better than buying used clothing for Christmas- right? I may get her a poster of her favorite band. Boots maybe. She is the one stressing me out this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pictures don't always do them justice, and you have to double-check the sizes since they don't always list them correctly but the prices are decent, and they are very picky about the quality they will accept.

AngieW in Texas Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I'm only replying for my youngest. Â This year (14yo) she is probably getting a lens for the Nikon D5100 she bought. Â For her 13yo Christmas, she got a banjo and a tripod for her Panasonic camera (point&shoot). Â For her 12yo Christmas, she got a Panasonic camera and a Brother CS600i sewing machine. Â There is also a Wii or DS game every Christmas as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitestavern Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 There are some great ideas here! My dd12 is getting tix to see Coldplay. She's going to flip out as they are her end all be all fav band. She wants to try hockey out (her brother started in the fall) so we might pick up a pair of used hockey skates as well. Other than that, it'll be mostly little things for her her stocking. Not really sure what yet, probably some nail polish and a subscription to American Girl, which she still enjoys.

TexasRachel Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Mine is getting a cheap tablet. Pretty much so she can watch shows on it, not for school work. Some nice makeup. Some clothes.

Live2Ride Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Our dd turns 15 this week. We are debating between and Ipod nano or a kindle...other than that, I'm making her a cute birds nest necklace, a tshirt, and some button bobby pins. She'll also get a giftcard for our local chocolate shop and one from Amazon, socks, a new robe, a book she's wanted. Oh, I did order her a 2 yr subscription to Cooking Light magazine. I plan to put the issue I get first with a cute new apron. We've been trying to get her interested in cooking more as she loves reading the cooking magazines. Most of those items will be in her stocking. Â As another poster lamented, it's my 13 yr old son that isn't really wanting much this Christmas...he's a bit harder to buy for this year.

Â I love reading what everyone's getting! Â We are hoping to go to Universal to TWWoHP in January or February, too, and it was just a few days ago that dd11 and dd8 were talking about getting a letter to go to Hogwarts. I've subbed to all of the Hogwarts-related lists; I love the idea of bringing some if this excitement to Christmas morning. On that note, I did just buy a Platform 9 3/4 decal for dd's room (typing on ipad - I don't see where to include a link but the I bought is here: http://www.etsy.com/listing/94100745/9-34-replica-sign-vinyl-wall-decal?ref=sr_gallery_12&ga_search_query=platform+9+3%2F4&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_ref=auto3&ga_search_type=all&ga_facet=platform+9+3%2F4), as well as a Hallows decal from the same seller. Nakia, are you making the Hogwarts ticket yourself, or do you have a recommendation for where to obtain one? Â DD11 is just a smidge younger than the age for this thread, but I'm just as stumped about what to get her as some of you are for your tween/teen girls. She'd love a bow for archery. She's asked for some vanilla-scented lotion from Bath and Body Works. And I know she'd be thrilled with boots. Maybe a pair of headphones?

Night Elf Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Graphic tshirts of her favorite tv shows. An example is one that says I believe in Sherlock from the BBC Sherlock series. Cafe Press is a wonderful place to shop. Â CD's of her favorite BBC radio show. Â I'd like to buy her a pair of boots but she doesn't want me to spend the money. Â Stocking stuffers: Comfy Kicks (a foldable ballet slipper you can keep in your bag, but they aren't real ballet slippers). And an astrology book for her sign. I wish I had more stuff, but I'll round it out with her favorite types of candy. Â This is the first year I don't have a surprise gift for her because she is just too hard to buy for. She made an exact list for me. It's less than exciting for me, that's for sure. Â For some reason, all of my kids are being money conscious this year and they aren't asking for much. That will make it nice financially, but boring if all they get are a few little things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Someone on here is also blessing her with a book and dvd set she desperately wanted. FREE! Â And I took her to see Breaking Dawn as her early birthday present. Â I really wish I could give her more special time with her dad, and the other night they got free tickets to a fundraiser for a wonderful meal. I was supposed to go with him, and I did not feel well nor did the baby, Â And she gets to go for 3 days to a Christian Conference after Christmas. We have helped with fundraising for this!

partyof5 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Dd 14 wants a wool pea coat from Delia's...she is getting that for certain. It's her only real request and it's pricey enough that it's her only significant gift. Â iTunes gift card for stocking, funky socks, plus a kitchen gadget or two. Â Other years we've gotten her yarn for her new knitting hobby, or tix to an event or concert. Â My husband gives all the girls a "date with Daddy" gift certificate and they LOVE planning this with him. It becomes a future gift that involves a personalized outing. I love this idea and so do they. The first year he did it they were not sure what to do but now the certificate he makes for each of them is something they look forward to and the 14yo has really gotten creative with her requests!
