The RoMANtic’s Guide Hundreds of Creative Tips for a Lifetime of Love By Michael Webb The Gift Tree
How I like to call this idea the gift tree. First you need to go to a stationary, party supply, or gift store and purchase several empty gift boxes in different sizes that can be stacked upon one another. The largest, of course is at the bottom and the boxes get smaller as you stack them. It is best to stick with the same-shaped boxes whether they’re round, square, oblong, or rectangular. The real trick now is to find something small yet meaningful to put in each of the boxes. Perhaps your sweetheart is a chocoholic? Different types of chocolate bars, truffles, or candies could be placed in each box. Maybe they are a sports nut? Fill the boxes with basketball tickets, a cap with their favorite team on it, a packet of trading cards, a baseball, and other paraphernalia. You could do the same for someone with interests in traveling, music, computers, fashion, or even dinosaurs. Buy a large ribbon, wrap it under the base, and tie it into a bow at the top of the stack. You could get really creative for Christmas and wrap some twinkle lights around the "tree." Whether you allow the "giftee" to open all of the boxes at once or make them wait minutes, hours, or days between the boxes is your call.
