I took this from iVillage:
"Leos love to create and to perform. Give a gift that enables her artistic creativity, or perhaps a gift that matches with her love of entertaining elegantly and grandly - how about some fine crystal, a large, exotic flower arrangement, or a new golden centerpiece for the table? Keep in mind that Leos are a bit extravagant and dramatic, and have a bold yet classy taste in everything. Anything from opera tickets to fine jewelry, to clothing in strong colors (red, purple, gold) will go over well. Leos also like to gamble, so they would find a lottery ticket or trip to Las Vegas right up their alley. The Lion is the Queen of the Zodiac, so give a present that treats her that way"

They give suggestions for the perfect gift:

lottery ticket -> yes, I'd like that!

fine jewelry -> yeah, but it's tricky, they really have to know my taste, and it is a bit weird (I call it modern glam goth)

gourmet chocolates -> yeah, if I don't know you that well

a manicure -> I'll think you are just lazy and can't be bothered

a silk scarf -> weeellll, maybe when I'm 70

oil paints -> I prefer water-colours

Champagne -> yesss, please

a large bold flower arrangement -> yeah, I'd like that

extra tall candles -> candles, tall, short, thin, thick... I love candles. So sexy!!!1

a makeover -> sure, por que nao!

china -> maaaaybe, I think too many people have read this article. I have 3 sets of china at tis stage

crystal -> not a big fan. Unless, they are some beautiful gothic wine glasses

a class on flower arranging -> hmmm, maybe

season tickets to the opera or theater -> don't like opera that much. I'd prefer the musical

diamonds or pearls -> who would say no

______

To add to that list, I'd love some kind of Parachute/bugee jump or flying lesson. Or a dark-room photography course. Or a cooking course. Or silk drawing lesson.

It doesn't have to be expensive, though. One of my boyfriends(Sag Sun) surprised me with a bag of random stuff (dvd, toy, flip-book, painting he made himself...). Another made a surprise of a selection of delicatessen and wine. Another cooked a nice meal, and this Scorpio guy NEVER cooks, he's actuly quite selfish, so when I saw the meal, I was speechless.

I think these kind of presents, when people make effort are more special. It's not about the money.
