Q. My big sister is getting married in a month and I would like to make her an awesome gift. Any ideas for great homemade gifts?
A. what are her interests or what does she love? if she is a garden lover, then put together a lovely basket of garden things like seed packets and garden gloves and tools, maybe add a little gardening book or a book of garden poems.
if she loves candels, make her an awesome homemade scented candel.
if she is a great cook, gather together some unsual spices, a few cool looking cooking utensils, a nice little cookbook and put them in a great basket.
if she is a camera buff, how about a collage of photos from your life together with some rolls of film to fit her camera and a nice little photo book.
if she is a sports enthusiast, a basket with some bottled water, energy bars, a little book on her sport or fitness book and perhaps some tickets to see her favorite event.
if she is a diva or makeup queen, how about a nice spa basket with her favorite scented soap or body scrub, nail polish, lipstick, facial stuff.
or you can put together a honeymoon basket....godiva chocolates for two, a small bottle of champagne or split of wine, two glasses, gourmet cracker and cheese or cookies.

What is a good gift idea for a female friend who is a teacher?
Q. She is recently married so it could be something for their house as well. She also really likes cats. Any and all gift suggestions will be appreciated, thanks!
A. You could get her a copy of 'Chicken Soup for the Teacher's Soul' or Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul', which are books of little uplifting/thought provoking true stories about the respective subject.
Or perhaps something like a framed picture for her house, either of her and her husband or of a cat, or perhaps a cat-themed biscuit/cookie tin.
