Christmas gifts for your sister

Christmas gifts for your sister who loves to color

A good Christmas gift for your sister is one that shows you know what she loves. If she colors, give her a realistic coloring book on her favorite theme, the sea or winter animals, or a 24-night mystery if she reads crime fiction. Nibfern coloring books have 45 realistic drawings, one per page, printed on one side so the back is blank, a light gray shading guide under every drawing, and a dotted cut line that trims a finished page to 7 x 9 inches for a standard 8 x 10 frame, so the pages she finishes can go on her wall.

Gift ideas for every kind of sister

The sister who has everything

Give her a project instead of an object: a book she finishes one evening at a time, with a frame for the page she likes best.

The sister who lives far away

Nibfern books are sold and shipped by Amazon, so you can send one to her address with a gift receipt.

The sister you color with

Buy two copies of the same book, color the same drawing over the holidays, and compare pages in January. How to color, frame and give a page.

A framed page from you

Color one page yourself, her favorite animal, cut it out along the dotted line and put it in a standard 8 x 10 frame. Give it with the book, so she has the first page and the next 44 to do.

Questions givers ask

What should I get my sister for Christmas?

Something tied to what she loves. For a sister who colors, a realistic coloring book on her favorite theme, colored pencils and a frame; for a mystery reader, an advent puzzle book like Nobody Leaves the Ice.

What is a good Christmas gift for a sister who has everything?

A project rather than another thing: a book of 45 drawings she can finish and frame, or a mystery to solve one night at a time in December.

Can I send the book straight to my sister?

Yes. The books are sold and shipped by Amazon, so you can send one to her address and add a gift receipt at checkout.
