So...I thought I had his gift under control. The main present was going to be a t-shirt he loves and really wants, a mixtape, and socks with funny sayings on them...but...I got an email from the website where I ordered the t-shirt, and turns out it's going to take quite a while to get here.
Since that won't be here in time for his birthday, what else can I get him?
I want something personal and unique, but also something that's at a reasonable price (I'm 16 years old, and quite strapped for cash).
I need ideas...his birthday is just next week, and I'm the kind of person who likes to have it wrapped and ready to go a few days before!
Thanks :)

He absolutely loves it because whenever we aren't together, he will look through it and it makes him happy. I also made him a "best boyfriend" award. I typed it up really nicely, printed it on a high quality paper, then used an old soccer medal and put some construction paper over that and wrote "best boyfriend" medal. You could also make a trophy or something out of paper mache. Its really cute haha and affordable.
Another cute thing to do is make a "memory jar". Which is pretty self explanitory. You take a big jar and fill it with little papers with a memory on it. For example- August 8th. The first day we kissed. March 10- we went to a concert together..
Or you could do something similar to the memory jar but instead fill it with reasons why you love him.
Another thing that is a good idea is to find a cute picture of you 2 and find an artist and have them draw that picture. I'm not sure exactly where but just do a little searching and there are people out there who will draw from a picture. Or you could send in a picture of you 2 and have them draw a caricature of you 2. Its cute and fun!
If you don't like any of those ideas, doing little things always works like baking him a cake, cookies etc. Buying him a giftcard to his favorite place. Surprising him by taking him out to dinner. Stargazing. Having a picnic. Walking on the beach. Those things always add a great touch to a celebration! [ lovealways1221's advice column | Ask lovealways1221 A Question ]
