Guest books make a marvellous gift at an important celebration. If prepared in advance it is extraordinary what a lot of pleasure these simple gift ideas can provide For an 80th birthday, a signing book full of lovely thoughts about the birthday girl can bring tears to her eyes
Top tip: If you are going to get the book signed on the 80th birthday itself then ask someone you can trust to persuade everyone to write a few remarks about the 80th birthday guest of honour. Use a good pen that doesn’t smudge, and get those thoughts down on paper early on in the proceedings!
