These classes will not only provide her with the opportunity to expand her knowledge but also connect with other enthusiasts who share the same passion.

5. Personalized Tool Set: Consider getting her a personalized tool set with her name or initials engraved on each tool. This will not only make her feel special but also provide her with a practical and customized set of tools for her projects.

6. Gift Cards to Vintage or Thrift Stores: Purchase gift cards from vintage or thrift stores that specialize in furniture and home decor items. This will give her the freedom to explore and choose unique pieces that she can restore or upcycle according to her own style and vision.
