#gifts - #Looking for gift for a friend living across the country with limited space


My best friend/former roommate moved to California for a job in May and her birthday is coming up (August). I'm going to send her something but I have a hard time coming up with good ideas. She has a PO Box, I don't really want to send her something easily perishable (like cookies or a fruit basket) since I'm unsure of how often she checks her mail/if she gets alerts for packages. She also lives in a small dorm style apartment and from helping her pack to move I know she's downsized a lot, so I don't want to add something else for when she needs to move again (she's in a seasonal position so it's likely she'll be moving again at the end of the year). She likes hiking, camping, fly fishing, horses/horseback riding, the Ohio State Buckeyes, baking, beer, and travel.I was hoping to find her like a specific fly tying kit (but I'm not knowledgeable in fly fishing so that's been a bit of trouble). I'm also thinking about maybe making a cross-stitch fly as a small wall decoration (and she can always fold the fabric up later for easy packing) or knitting a sweater for her/our cat in the Buckeye colors. There's also a coffee place in town that she liked and I believe they sell their coffee/gift baskets so that's an option as well. Any one have any ideas/suggestions? via /r/Gifts http://ift.tt/2uv6FKa
