I saw something on a craft show yesterday that might do. The hosts of the show took old eye shadow and blusher compacts and cleaned out the old stuff,washed and dried them and filled them with home-made lip gloss. They made it by putting a generous amount of ordinary lip balm such as Vaseline Lip Therapy into a plastic zipper bag along with a few shavings from an old lipstick and mixing them in the bag. When the color had been well distributed, they snipped a small corner of the bag off and used it to squirt the lip gloss into the clean compact sections. You could flavor the lip glosses by adding a drop of extract like peppermint or vanilla. They then decorated the outside of the compact by cutting a piece of scrapbook paper to fit the outside top and used a glue stick to attach and added some embellishments such as flat back rhinestones and tiny silk flowers with some white glue.

If you have any clear glass, such as a candle holder for votives, or even a baby food jar. Apply glue to the outside, and glue on old jewelry pieces, sequins, and tiny mirrors. I've seen the mirrors in rectangles and circles. Then make her a nice card.
She can put earrings or notes in the jar.

You can make picture frames if you have some cardboard or matte board. She would probably love to have something for her room, and someplace to put pictures of her friends. You could also make throw pillow or blanket in her colors if you have scrap fabric.
