While Christmas shopping this season, many of you may find yourselves looking for a gift for a female between the ages of 12-60. Crazy, I know, but if you are, there is a high possibility that they are a ginormous fan of Twilight and vampires and such. If your favorite gal (or guy) falls into that category, what is a non-Twilight fan to buy for them? How do you know what qualifies as a great Twilight gift, or if the vampire-loving giftee would even like the gift in the first place? Chances are, they already have the books and the soundtrack, but that's not all that Twilight has to offer.

Here are a few Twilight-themed gift ideas, and just so you know that I wasn't pulling this out of thin air, I ran them by a few friends who would appreciate them. The following gifts have a Twilight fan's seal of approval.

• This Cafepress user is "obsessed with Twilight!" (Her words, not mine.) Anyway, she has an assortment of Twilight-themed t-shirt designs in her collection, and I don't know an Edward fan who wouldn't love a semi-original shirt that proclaimed "Find Your Own Vampire, Edward Cullen is All Mine." To order one, click here.
• Barnes and Noble is offering up these lovely Twilight-inspired bookends. According to fans, they are based on the chess pieces from Breaking Dawn, the fourth book in the series. If anything, they'll be a great showcase for their soon-to-be-five Twilight books.
• For those with a greater sense of literary appreciation, the collector's edition of the first book, Twilight, is now available. And if price isn't a factor for you, a signed First Edition of Twilight is being auctioned off for over $4,000 dollars on eBay. Dang.
• This mom from twilightmoms.com is selling Twilight jewelry. It's a subtle way for them to show your support for vampires all day long, without actually spelling it out on a t-shirt. Your giftee might enjoy this "Bite Me" bracelet, or even a pair of apple earrings.
• Finally, if you want to give the gift of all gifts for your Twilight fan, buy them tickets to the Twilight Convention (aka, TwiCon 2009). At $255 per person, registration might seem a little bit steep, but your Twilight-lover will be able to see a screening of the movie, go to all of the other TwiCon activiteis, and even go to the Volturi Masque Ball. Warning: they have to be at least 18 to attend this one.
