Hi lovely ladies, any ideas for a goddaughters 18th birthday present. :smiley:

Last year I bought mine a leather jewellery box embossed with her initials. She loves it! You can go from NOTHS reasonable to something more high end, so worth shopping around. I know she’ll have it on her dressing table forever!

Ooh thank you

How about a welded bracelet? I got my little sister in law one from Astrid & Miyu for her birthday. You can get matching ones too!

If I was 18 I would love a voucher for my favourite nail salon or one of the new Instax square cameras

love these ideas!

I love the idea of the Astrid and Miyu Bracelet!
Another idea could be an experience, taking her to the theatre or getting a ticket for her and a friend/family member!

Or a Jo Malone perfume is a real treat!

I have ordered at least 15 of these as gifts over the years. Oak for women, walnut for men. Sent one recently to a goddaughter, and she seemed to love it more than anything else I’ve given her. The quality is good and it comes in a decent plain box making it easier to giftwrap. In addition, D&T’s customer service is outstanding. One arrived marked and they replaced it immediately. https://dustandthings.com/products/personalised-initial-mens-jewellery-box

love the idea of personalisation for a big birthday!
Perhaps a notebook to take to uni/first job would be sweet?
Love anything from Papier:

but also Smythson’s leather ones feel quite special
