With Raksha Bandhan literally right round the corner, all the brothers ought to be dripping with sweat and panting with anxiety, trying to find answers to one nightmare-inducing question; “What should I get for my sister?” There is the age-old solution of resorting to giving money, of course. But it’s a very impersonal way of saying ‘I care’, so instead of giving the envelope that’s handed to you by your mother, gift your sister something that will bring a smile to her face, something that will be cherished and remembered. And while there isn’t any foolproof solution to this dilemma, we do have a couple of ideas that might take you out of this pickle.
