What is your 12-15 year old DD asking for the holidays?

Makeup from Ulta and slaybyella
Ugg slippers
Nike sneakers and sweat pants
Bodysuits from American eagle
Pandora jewelry
Michael kors bag
Candles from bath & bodyworks

There were a few other small things on her list but I can't think of them right now.

Be careful with family candles. I know someone whose teenager started a house fire with one of those fancy candles. Knocked it over and it caught on something flammable, kid couldn’t stop it, got out and the parents got out but the house was pretty much a total loss. Teen bedrooms are not a good match for candles.

I agree. My nightmare.

My girl has always been hard on shoes. After replacing multiple pairs of torn-up, worn-out cheap boots, I finally coughed up for Docs once her feet seemed to have mostly stopped growing. Haven’t regretted it.

I definitely spent more on her shoes every year before I bought the Docs. Now all I buy is a new pair of Chucks every year, and occasionally summer sandals if she’s in a girlier mode.

Books, an individualized stamp that says “from the library of [her name],” a candle that’s inspired by her favorite literary characters, art supplies, iPhone (hand-me-down), a years supply of hair elastics.

Ive seen several of you post Comfy. Is it this? https://thecomfy.com/

Do teens actually wear this? I have never heard of this. I would love to get one for DD if there is a chance she will actually wear it.

Both my girls (now ages 12 & 14) got comfys last year and they are still using/wearing them now. Great gift.

My girls (11 & 13) got Comfys for the first night of Hanukkah and have used them every day since. The 11 yo said I should thank whoever recommended it, so ... Thank you, DCUM.

Another thank you for the Comfy idea. Ordered the 2-pack from Costco. They sent the wrong colors, but I’m sure they’ll be enjoyed regardless!

I ordered the two (blue and silver) for DD(11) and I so we can sit by the fire pit this winter. I am now trying to figure out how to wrap them!

I ordered two from Amazon. One came nicely packaged in a box, and the other one came in a flexible plastic wrapper - basically a plastic bag. The second one was much harder to wrap. A large gift bag would work.

18 and 16 year olds love their comfys - have had them over a year...
