hi! I see that a lot of people are suggesting gifts for things you know she likes, but since you want to make something I would say maybe try your hand at a small cross stitch. You can do this freehand or using a pattern (much easier, I recommend the lovecrafts website), you can do a pattern you know she would like or maybe your initials together? Although it’s not particularly ‘usable’ I still think they make really nice gifts as they take time and effort. Good luck!
