Mum and Dad (well, just mum, dads name will go on the card) need to buy a 21st present for a family friends daughter..

For my brothers 21sts they've spent probably $100-$150, and have gotten pretty awesome 'out of the ordinary' gifts. For my oldest brother (6years ago) they got him a suitcase set, with the small bags backpacks etc. For next brother, they got him a mink blanket before they were popular (4-5years ago?) and for my last brothers 21st they got him a digital weather station (1-2 years ago).....

We have NO idea what to get her, so with a budget of roughly $100-$150, what would you suggest?

At the moment, she's still living at home, but has lived away from home (she moved home after her and boyfriend broke up).... We'd like to get her something a bit more out-of the ordinary (rather than towels, linen, photo frames etc) that will be remembered.

For her big sisters 21st Mum and Dad got her a wine case ornamental thing with expensive wine in it which was about $150....

Traditionally it is nice crystal, china, silverware or similar. Perhaps take a look around Stevens or somewhere that does nice homeware stuff for some ideas.

I was going to suggest a Pandora bracelet as well.

Hehe, how about a chainsaw? If she's rural, lol. Something a bit different!

Maybe an 'experience' gift like you get from red balloon or similar?

Digital photo frame with some photos uploaded on it of her life etc.

Bracelet or other jewellery item. People always keep jewellery. Glasses and homeware stuff gets broken and replaced with age but jewellery last forever.

Is she into her cooking at all? For my sister's 21st, I got her a pizza stone and marble rolling pin - freaking expensive ones LOL It was the real deal kind of thing - my sis was into making homemade pizzas and home cooking, and had also been using a bottle as a rolling pin.

For my 21st, I got a voucher for a jeweller so I could go and choose my own gift - I got a silver watch and a diamond and gold ring.
