Date Box

Give your favorite guy an experience the two of you can enjoy together. Buy a wood box from a craft store and paint it your guy's favorite color or collage pictures of the two of you together on the outside. Fill the box with the makings of a special date. Include such things as a special DVD, a box of microwaveable popcorn and other snacks. Provide the makings for a romantic meal such a bottle of homemade pasta sauce, a box of gourmet noodles and a bubbly drink. If your guy is an outdoorsman, surprise him with a new backpack filled with homemade trail mix and some hand-knit socks. Choose a theme for the date box and fill it with theme-specific goodies your boyfriend will love.

Personalize Christmas Stocking
-
Have your beau's name embroidered on a Christmas stocking and fill it with an assortment of small goodies. Chocolates, golf balls, tickets to see his favorite team play and small electronics are all great stocking stuffers. Traditional items like candy canes and ornaments are always good filler items.
Hand-drawn portrait
-
Whether or not you consider yourself an artist, a hand-drawn portrait is a heart-felt gesture he will always remember. Draw a picture from a favorite photo of you and your boyfriend together. Charcoal pencils are fairly easy to use and create a dramatic result. If you are not at all artistically inclined, find an artist who will be able to draw a picture for you from a photo.
