sorry it was all cloak and whispers around here yesterday! but i had been planning this little project for the husband for months!
i got the "on-the-hour" downloadable stickers off thirty handmade days.
so every 14th minute on the hour, there was a pressie waiting to be opened!
i thought it would be a nice thing to do because while he sloggin' the day away, we are our having the time of our lives and shopping up a storm. and because he's such a sweetheart!
i had so much fun buying and putting together everything!! it was filled with daniel's favorite goodies :: his favorite candy, professional cheese grater, a set of spoons he has been looking for since 19 (!), beer mugs, mochi cheesy bites he is obsessed with, bamboo ipad pen, new homey slippers to replace his ratty ones..
a bottle of bubbly to end the day with..
:: the verdict ::
his favorite :: the pasta machine
least expected :: the spoons
funny fact :: if it were me, i'd totally be opening my presents while taking pictures and have you girlies ooh & ahhh over each item with me. but he opened each of his presents crouched under his desk and giggling delightfully and sending delightful messages to his wife.
project success!!
hope you darlings had a fabulous day celebrating with your lovebugs!!

ReplyDeletewow, so he lugged all the presents to work! nice!!
ReplyDeletewow. this took so much effort and thought!!! my husband almost read this post.... phew!! managed to jump over to another window just in time. otherwise, he's send me off to buy HIM presents for next year. then i'd be saying, "geee. thanks Zhing for spoiling the market" :P
