Present for a nb girl.. no ideas!

[~LoriMum~]

A close friend of mine who lives interstate recently had a baby girl and I still haven't gotten her a pressie cos I have no idea what to get her - nothing seems quite right, so I think I'm looking for something a little different (don't want to just pop into Target and get a girly matching set). She's now about 1 month old... have to get cracking - any ideas for me at all...? I can't afford to spend heaps, but at the same time, I don't have time to add to my ever-growing list of sewing to do around here, even though I probably could attempt to make something myself. Oh, she is using MCN, too.

Thanks

someone posted about some gorgeous birthstone rattles

Wooden toys, Steiner toys, Educational Toys, European Toys - Wooden Baby Toys - Birthstone Rattles

I think they are a gorgeous keepsake

or what about some loopyloos. there are a few on the bear hug baby site and at their store on Ozebaby

oooh, in having a look around Ozebaby I just found the most gorgeous little cardi I couldn't seemed to keep coming back to. I know it's not a keepsake, but it's beautiful, so I've organised that to be sent to her. I can't knit so it makes me feel better that I sent something I couldn't possibly make myself even if I tried!! Those rattles are gorgeous, though, and I have kept that in mind for later
Thanks
