Birthday Experience Gifts for Her

Maybe the October birthday recipient in your life is less of a gift person and more of an experience person!

October is a lucky month for Sagittarius to take risks and explore new opportunities. If you want to surprise an October birthday friend with a unique gift, consider something that represents travel and adventure, like tickets to a far-flung destination or a unique experience like an online art class! 

Try exploring a new fun hobby with Uncommon Goods classes. More importantly than just getting her a gift, you might be able to get her something that she didn't know she loved to do, that she might continue doing, that maybe you both can do together! It could be a spa day, cooking class at Sur La Table or theater tickets. Experience gifts are so fun because it means that you might also be able to spend time with the person you love.

Not sure if an in-person experience will work? How about an online class? For example, paint your birth month flower is an activity you both can do together, or look at taking some astrology chart classes. The opportunities are endless and it's something that she'll remember forever.
