Gift Basket for 13 year old Girl?

I decided to make a gift basket for my step-daughter (although I have never made a gift basket before.)





Her "big" Christmas gifts will be wrapped, but I decided to put her small things in a basket.





What are some suggestions for small things to put in the basket. Here's a few things I am already putting in there,





Nail Polish - every color


Nail Polish Remover


Manicure Set


Pedicure Set


Lip Gloss





What else?

Gift Basket for 13 year old Girl?
Nice scented soaps or toiletries, depending on if she's "girly" (go for natural essences etc) or "sporty" (go for patchouli, musk etc).





Scented candles in coloured glass holders





If she has long enough hair, some attractive hair slides (barrettes), a comb and brush set, etc. Hair gel if she wears it, or some little travelling bottles of expensive hair-care products--she'll feel pampered.





Small bottles of her favourite colognes or perfumes, 2-3 different small size ones, to let her have a choice.





A nail-brush; so useful! (For washing your hands) Get a cute one with an animal or flower or something. Mine is a pale-purple hippo and it makes me grin every time I pick it up.





One of those twine shower gloves, or a loofah, or a net bath scrubby or two.





Eyelash curler--extravagant but fun!





Nice talcum powder in a pretty container, esp. if it comes with a powder puff...she may laugh but we all love it!





If you have a bathtub, aromatherapy oils. You can get small bottles and she can add a few drops to the bath...get three or four different ones. Or, get her an oil burner to go with them and some of those little tea lights.
Reply:phone charm, novelty socks, diamante initial key-ring, ear-rings, mini box of chocs (a bit more grown up than a selection box)





my boyfriends daughter is the same age and anything with a playboy logo on it seems to be popular this year.
Reply:at that age all I wanted was $ to go shopping with friends, maybe a gift card to the mall to do a little shopping, and maybe a coupon in there for your services to pick up a friend of hers and take them to lunch and then to the mall?


otherwise how about some books, jewelry making supplies, cool nite light for her room or a small lava lamp, small makeup bag, scarf/hat, handheld games like Tetris Simon or Yahtzee, disposable camera, note book and cool pens, socks, good hair products, her favorite candy
