christmas present ideas for bf...


Question Posted Wednesday November 24 2010, 5:06 pm

I really like getting people presents and I love thinking up perfect ideas of what to make them but I can't think of ANYTHING to make my boyfriend for christmas this year...He doesn't wear necklaces or anything and I was thinking about making a scrap book or something but we don't have a lot of pictures of us together :/ I really need help thinking of something cute to do for him, I'm kind of always expected to make people awesome presents. Last year, I filled a heart shaped box with 100 reasons why I love him and I've drawn him pictures of us for a present before...help!!

i like the scrap book idea. but it doesn't have to be pictures of just you 2. try talking to his parents and see if they can give you some pics of him when he was a baby and growing up. so it could be like a memory scrapbook of his childhood. and then occasionally put pics of you 2 in there.

this year, i'm making my bf a tie blanket. its basically when you buy 2 sheets of fabric (fleece) and cut strips on the edges and tie them together. they are really cozy and he saw that i had one and practically begged me to make him one. you can also make him a matching pillow. its basically the same as the blanket but you just buy stuffing at any fabric store and stuff the insides of the 2 blankets.

you can also try some fun stuff with photos. if you have a Walgreens, ask them what kinds of stuff they offer. i know they let you print pictures on Tshirts, coffee mugs, hats etc. maybe make him a pair of pajamas with a bunch of pics on them? haha

you can make him a scarf, hat, or socks if you're talented with needles and yarn. maybe make him a quilted blanket if you know how to quilt. if you're good at art, you could try painting a self portrait of him. or oil pastels. and then frame it.

There's a ton of idea's. just keep your eyes open. sometimes, the best presents/ideas are right under your nose :) pay attention to what he sees and says he likes. go to the mall and if he looks at something intently, he's interested in it. get ideas from his actions.

Hey there,
Aw first let me say I think its great you make presents like that its really creative and special I have a friend like you too. :)
Anyway firstly don't stress. Or over think. Seems silly I know but when we get worked up or put ourselves under pressure like that to come up with an idea it almost always never happens. Its like writers block. Relax and take your mind off it and you never know something might come to you when your doing something completely different.
I was thinking about a photo collage but as you said you don't seem to have many pics together..
In that case does it have to be all of just you and him?My best friend made me two big photo collages one were of pics with me and my friends.. and the other was pics of my family and things I love :) What about something along those lines?
Or a box with all his favorite things like I don't Know say his fav chocolate..his fav song..movie cologne again my friend made me something like that before (except it included my favorite lipgloss etc..haha.)you could maybe include reminders of special memories or times you spent together?
Maybe do the old school Cd of favorite songs/love songs? if you haven't before.
Thats really All I can think of..unfortunately I'm not as creative! I hope I helped to spark some ideas for you! good luck and anything you give your bf im sure he will appreciate as its coming from you :)
much <3
