If they like chocolate you should get a chocolate fountain set, they are so amazing.
Here is a link:

How about a really nice piece of jewellery or a watch, with some silly driving things like fluffy dice and keyrings (for her car keys :wink:), as we all know that is the most important thing about being 17!
^^ Yes, I was going to suggest driving lessons!

Do you have any special talents e.g. do you paint, sing? If so then sing her a song and record it onto CD or paint her a picture for her bedroom wall. I know that i would love a gift which was tasteful and required effort rather then something which was simply bought, with not a lot of thought.

lol unfortunately no, im a girl with no talent like that :P ah this is so hard! Because its her 17th I really want to get her something really special, not just go out and buy any old thing, thats why Im trying to put a lot of thought into it, but its hard!
I say get her a framed vinyl record if she's that into music. She'll treasure it. That.. or a kind of birthday stokcing of nice stuff that she'll like.. thoughtful one
Why not make a photo album/scrapbook for her, with pics in it of her and all her friends (even the baby photos :p:, get them off her parents!), and get all her friends to write a little message in there for her. We did that to one of my friends who loves the little mermaid...we got a little mermaid notebook and stickers and stuck in loads of pictures for her. You can have good fun making it look pretty in all her favourite colours, and it's really unique and special.
