I dont mean something practical.
I want to send something cute something fun. Something creative.

I don't do 'cute', so I can't give any practical suggestions, but I want to explain the way mail is delivered in israel. Anything much larger than a regular envelope will get sent to the post office nearest her. She will get a notice that she needs to come and collect it. Which, of course, she can't do until the bidud is over.

If you are sending her something, and you want her to get it during bidud, it needs to be small. If you are ordering something within Israel, make sure it gets delivered to the door.

The magazines have ads for places within israel that can send gift packages. I’ve seen in Mishpacha. I think it’s usually food or toys but maybe something that you’re looking for?

What Elfrida wrote is correct, but Amazon and most Israeli companies will offer delivery to your door, even if it costs a bit more. So your best bet is one of those.

Personally, I am in favor of supporting small businesses and avoiding Amazon whenever possible. When you know what you'd like to send, PM me and I will be happy to direct you to a small business which offers what you want and who it is a big mitzvah to support right now. (Amazon also charges a lot for shipping to Israel right now.)

Amazon won't deliver food products to Israel. If you want to order food, it needs to be local.
