So my homeroom is doing a Secret Santa and I a girl who is popular and likes fashion and art but I have no idea what to get her! The gift has to be about $10 but it can go a little under and a little over. I don't really think she would like any of these gifts. Also, she's not obsessed with 1D and she's not obsessed with mustaches. Please help me!! Thank you

Hey girl, don't fret!  Lucky for you, we've been working on creating lists of gift ideas for all sorts of different people.  Check out our stocking stuffer ideas, BFF presents, and even gift ideas for sibs.  Try choosing something you like.  Good luck!

Okay so I also have a Secret Santa going on in my class and I had a bunch of ideas! But they were all for girls and I got a guy. And I have no clue what to get him other than candy. Here's what hes like and what he likes and hopefully you can help!
He's into drawing and architecture
He's nice
He likes school and reading
He likes music
He does karate and piano
He's funny (but not a class clown or joke-book kinda guy)
So that's basically what hes like. Hopefully you can come up with a good idea for a gift cause I don't have a clue.

 

 

 

 

Hey Chica, ask around to get a few ideas. Because he;s into drawing think about  new notepad one day and colored pencils another day.

MOD MOD MOD MOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So, in my class, we're doing Secret Santa. This year, we write what we want and drop it into the box, and somebody picks it up. But, the girl I picked up asked for something cute... and not clothes cute. She's into anime and manga.... and is extremely good at drawing it too.


Hey girl,

If she loves anime and manga, maybe you could get her a book of it from your local bookstore! Saying something cute isn't very specific, and I'm sure she'd be happy with whatever you got her. You could also get a cute accessory like a bracelet or necklace.
