Tis the season for giving and receiving gifts – one of the many joys of Christmas!
As always, my kiddos make a list of gifts they would love to get listed in the order of what they want the most. Each year I do my best to get them as many items as possible on their lists (depending on whether they were naughty or nice all year…..Santa is not the only one with that kinda power 
Call me Mommy Claus
This year, my 16 year old, Courtney, decided to get a bit creative and created a Polyvore mood board for her Christmas wish list. I am guessing that she thinks if I can visualize it, she is more likely to get everything on the list! Nothing could be further from the truth. LOL. I definitely have to give her credit for thinking outside of the box though
And just incase you are struggling with what to get your teenagers for Christmas, here’s a list of gift ideas for teenagers from a picky teenager
Well this board is leaning heavily towards female teenagers but you get the idea: Technology and money are the biggest must-haves.
Gift Ideas for Teenagers
The list consists of: Sweaters, Uggs Boots, Toms Sneakers, Purses, iPad, Mac Book, Perfume, Beats Headphones, Cash, Charm Bracelets, Watch, Laptop, Gift Cards and other expensive items
She created her Christmas gift ideas wish list using Polyvore. Follow me on Polyvore to see some of my creations!
This is my daughter, Courtney <3

I love these ideas for Christmas Gift Ideas For Teenagers Straight From A Picky Teenager! I also like some of them for ME!! I could use a new pair of Uggs for sure
Me too! I am hoping to get myself a pair too!
you are such a great mom!
Thank you Jessica!
That’s what we let our kids do, write lists, and maybe you will get whats on there.. But we do both holidays so they are lucky in that respect..
That’s great! Do your kids still or ever believed in Santa Claus?
It’s always the best idea to get your child’s input on gifts, after all you want them to be happy. Courtney looks like a very lovely young lade, just like her mom!
Absolutely! I do it every year. They never really believed in Santa….they knew the gifts were from me, so I wanted to make sure I got them right. Can’t blame Santa in this case for bad gifts. Lol
Oh, and thanks for the compliment about my daughter
WOW! These are all wonderful gift ideas! I’m glad you included gift cards.
Yes, that’s probably what a dad will get his teenager
Your daughter looks like a mini you
She’s so beautiful! Teens can be challenge to buy for… I’m not looking forward to my grandsons becoming teens!
Thanks Loretta! That’s why I started doing this years ago. They are really hard to buy for
This way of communicating wants is a great excercise in creativity and computer skills. I like it!
Thanks Terri! She is very creative! She loves to draw and paint and treasurer for fashion club at her school.
This was a FABULOUS way of putting a list together. Pin it to your Pinterest board. I am going to put this on my Holiday Board. She has a wide variety of things she wants and they are excellent choices. You are raising a great, creative , talented daughter.
Thanks Roslyn. Here’s the link to Pinterest

Great tips for those difficult to buy for teens!
Thank you Jo
My boyfriends daughter is 13 and we received her christmas list in the mail. It has about everything you have on your board there. And yes we will need lots of money to buy it..lol…
Lol. yep! they are expensive!
I love her gift ideas.
I need to use that app to make cool photos.
Polyvore is pretty easy to use. I love it
My 11-year old grandson could use one of these boards. He’s so hard to buy for this year.
It gets worse as they get older
Oh, my, she is beautiful, smart and talented! I love her ideas and some can be used for boys, too. The Beats earphones, the laptop and tablet can be used by anyone, actually.
Absolutely!
The mood board is a great idea! I can’t believe you have kids of this age because you look so young.
Awwww, Thanks Jim!
Wow the apple does not fall far from the tree with the creativity gene – huh! Way to go Courtney.
Thanks Irene!
What great gift ideas for teens!! Your daughter is beautiful!
This is my favorite time of year and you’ve given me some great ideas!
lol, how creative of her to do that. Great thinking to help mom put a picture to brands lol.
This is a great idea! I love her list.
I love this idea! I am going to get this on my office wall to visualize what I want! I need to see it every day. I gave my kid her present early… and me too! I get to sleep in and she gets to drive her new car to school. All is well!
Oh these are great gifts. Couldn’t help but notice that stack of hundreds. Cash is King
I have a 14 year old, these are great gift ideas!
You’ve given me some great ideas here, I have a 17 year old grandaughter to buy a gift for! Thanks…
Veronica, what a fantastic post! I have a niece that I need to find something special for. I love the idea of Toms shoes.
