X-Mas/Holiday Gift Suggestions!

[Cali2LDN]

Since Christmas is coming up why not have a section just for creative gift suggestions!? I know forums for gift ideas have popped up in a bunch of different forum topics.

What do you think?

My gift idea...
My sister told me about this site---> https://www.shutterfly.com/photo-gifts
She made my family a calendar with my nephew's pictures for a christmas gift once. There is many more things you can make there with pictures of you, or you and your so or just sweet pictures or sayings.

maybe just making a big ole list thing ya know lol

That'd be nice. Or we could make one of those sticky threads, so it'll be up top.

I used Shutterfly before! Made my SO a scrapbook for our one year anniversary! I actually caught it on a good day, because they had a code for a free scrapbook. I only had to pay for shipping =P It was really cute. I got it paperback. I'm going to start working on our second one soon; I want this one to be hardcover. Anyway, Shutterfly is GREAT for gifts!

I did this for our first anniversary too :P I got free shipping because I had a code for if you spend over $30 (I believe I got a hardback one). It was really fun to make and it looked amazing! He loved it! I will not be making one for a while though because I used most of our photos together on that book.

As for the idea of a gift section, I think a thread would probably be more appropriate.

I will rename and move this thread and sticky it in the main LDR section of the forum.

I did the calendar idea for my SO last year. She really liked it. I used iPhoto and printed via Apple, but I'm sure there are plenty of sites out there that do a similar service for the same or less.

I found my SOs present on the thinkgeek site but he didnt like it xD It was a shirt with a guitar on it and you can play it basically and it makes sounds, he said it'd be funny but get borin in like a week haha
He's kinda right...
I should ask him what he'd like to have some time soon and then get him somethin maybe
Or I'll just go for a romantic/sexy date night Been doin it before and he loved it hehe

Well i am just planning to send my SO a letter every day including some form of poem/doodle (he loves my doodles haha) included, and then i'm sending him a framed photo of us from when we first met i will probably go on tinternet and find a good, solid enjoyable present for him.....since he's spending €100 on a very fancy fountain pen made from irish wood (he's irish) and a reeeeally beautiful leather journal....yup he is too good for me xD

i wish i had more money
