We have a friend’s birthday coming up. And she has everything. Everything you could possibly think of. And more.
So what’s the perfect gift for the woman who has everything? She has the fine wines, the fast cars and the luxury lifestyle already.
And we have a limited budget for a small gift from a group of her 3 best friends**.
(**Well, I’m her best friend, the other 2 she likes a little less. Or probably a lot less)
(Or, rather, I’m writing this, so I’ll paint myself as her best friend. There’s not a damned thing the others can do about it)
(By the time they see this, it’ll be on the internet. And thus be factually correct)
So what could we get our Princess? Our woman who has everything.
Champagne?
…She drinks it by the gallon. Bathes in it. Uses it to rinse out her month.
NEEEEXT!!!!
A Bouquet of Flowers?
This special Princess has flowers aplenty. If her husband doesn’t come home bearing armfuls of roses for his precious lady, her team of minions deal with it.
NEEEEXT!!!!
Spa treatment voucher?
….She has a whole team of people employed to massage, stroke and tweak her to a state of nirvana each day.
NEEEEXT!!!
Brunch at The Shard?
…This means nothing to her. It’s like having a Weetabix and a slice of toast. Plus we did this for her last year anyway.
What’s the perfect gift for the woman who has everything?
It’s got to ooze class and style. It’s got to be unique.
And it’s got to be funny.
In essence, it’s got to be her. Wrapped up in pretty paper.

My Eureka! moment
That’s it!
By Jove. I think I’ve got it!
The perfect present for the woman who has everything!
It’s got to be her!
Or a picture of her.
A cool pop-art canvas of the woman who has everything!
Personalised pop-art canvas
A quick trawl through the Internet – how on earth did we manage before it? – showed a company called Poparted.
As their website says so much better than I could…..

What image?
Our woman who has everything is fun-loving, loves dancing and has great pins.
So, we went off in search of images of an action shot, by herself and with her legs on display.
Actually, we co-opted her husband in and set him the task of finding a suitable image.
And I’m sure he was cursing me as I said no to each of the images he sent me.
But this is for the woman who has everything.
And we need the perfect gift for her.
What style?
We decided to go for a ‘repeated’ shot in fairly jazzy pop colours.
And specified turquoise or teal and magenta to go with her decor.
A canvas with image after image of our woman who has everything. And her long legs.
How do you order from Poparted?

Actually, where quite a lot of things are concerned.
….but especially technical things.
But this is just so easy.
Foolproof, you could say.
…which is handy

First Proof for the woman who has everything
The first proof arrived by email and I loved it.
Loved the colours, the repeated image.
The only thing I didn’t like is that the drink she’s holding aloft doesn’t look like a glass of champagne.
In fact, it looked a bit like a can of Special Brew.
Certainly not the kind of drink favoured by the woman who has everything.
A quick email to Poparted and they cropped a little closer around the drink.
…and the second proof arrived back with a classy lady with long pins dancing with a glass of champagne.
Perfect!
The Finished Product
So, after just a couple of emails and a few more days, the canvas arrived.
But is it the perfect gift for the woman who has everything?
…you decide.
and if the woman who has everything doesn’t like it?
She can just pop it in a spare lav in the West Wing, or in the Servants’ Quarters.
…no-one need every know about it.
