Need Gifts for the Divorce Party?


Need Gifts for the Divorce Party?


Nine Web Sites to Help You Find Just the Right Present for a Divorced Friend

DIVORCE PARTY GIFT IDEAS

Need ideas for the guest of honor at a divorce party? Look no further. Divorce parties can run the party spectrum from classy affairs to downright bawdy blowouts. Here are some gift possibilities for any kind of divorce party.  


One-stop shopping: A Web site that began as a supportive lark for a friend, Katie, who was experiencing heartache has turned into a break-up boutique. The site offers everything from break-up care packages to voo-doo dolls, tea and bath products to boyfriend replacement massage kits. http://www.smashingkatie.com/  

For the sensitive friend: A mug emblazoned with the words “You’re Too Good for Him,” might be the perfect way for someone enduring a break-up to start their day. Or a bracelet that reminds them of strength in adversity. http://www.healingbaskets.com/divorce-gifts.htm  

For the friend who could use some encouragement: A Incredible Instant Adoring Boyfriend DVD. He does housework and he’s generous with compliments. http://abernook.com/prod/Instant-Adoring-Boyfriend.asp?source=fg  

For the friend who is ready to be inspired: The Stepping Stones affirmation set provides 48 cards with women’s wisdom for healing. http://www.femailcreations.com/products/sku-8930__pc-findgift.html  

For a friend celebrated at a Girls’ Night Out: The perfect glass for the woman of honor – the “Who Needs a Man” wine glass. Hand-painted in shades of pink and silver, the design celebrates all that is good about single womanhood.  http://www.wrapables.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=A54513  

For the friend who can use a little perspective and a good laugh: A ceramic sign that reads: “It is better to have loved and lost, than to live with a psycho for the rest of your life.” http://www.mountainemeadows.com/catalog/piece/loved_psycho/  

For the friend with a sense of humor: You could get a chocolate bar that cheers “Happy Divorce,” but that wouldn’t be nearly as memorable as the three and a half foot inflatable husband or wife.  (“All your friends will like him, won't upset your parents, always willing to please, doesn't watch football, never breaks wind, always faithful and he floats.”)  Besides, they’re on sale.  http://chocolatefantasies.com/divorce.htm    

For the friend who has been through too much with an ex:  This is for the person whose divorce has been more than any one person should bear.  And that person is mad.  The EX Knife Holders will provide some personal satisfaction (and a laugh) every time you walk into the kitchen.  And they come in a variety of colors to match any décor:  black, red, chrome, pink and apple green.  http://www.amazon.com/5-Piece-Stainless-Steel-Knife-Unique-Holder/dp/B000IXINLC  

For the friend who really means it: An engraveable wedding ring coffin to bury the marriage with the ring.  As the manufacturer says, it’s “ the perfect way to close the lid on your dead marriage.”  http://www.weddingringcoffin.com
