View Full Version : I need a care package idea
ArmyGirl 10-03-2007, 07:46 PM Dh and ours one year wedding anny is in December. And I want to send him like a loved theme package.
Anyone have an ideas? I have a really nice card already, and a coupon book for when he gets home to put in there. But I dont really know what else to get?
Mak327 10-03-2007, 07:58 PM pictures of you two together. maybe go get some fake rose petals from a craft store and put some of those in the box. I would say a chocolate rose, but that would probably melt before getting to him. What about one of those glass paperweight things that has the etching inside of it of something romantic.
ArmyGirl 10-03-2007, 08:02 PM I thought about putting a picture of us in a frame. I like the rose pedal ideas...
JessicaD 10-03-2007, 08:15 PM is the cupon book for stores or for him to use with u around the house?
annmarie 10-03-2007, 08:16 PM I can only think of dirty things........lol.........

He dosent have a cd player, just his zune. I thought about that though, just in case.
As far as pictures go, lol... He aint getting naked ones! Maybe some slightly sexy ones, but thats it. :blush
SIMMYBABEZ 10-03-2007, 09:27 PM I'd stick a whole bunch of heart shaped confetti in there :fetti
And I'd probably send him some heart shaped lolly pops.

I like the pillowcase idea
JessicaD 10-03-2007, 09:31 PM would u like their website?
ArmyGirl 10-03-2007, 09:32 PM sure! Thanks hun
Mak327 10-03-2007, 09:33 PM you can also make it by printing pictures on to iron on transfers and ironing it on to a white pillow case.
Does he use Itunes for his Zune? or somethign else. I know on Ituned you can "give as gift" songs so you could put together a mini play list and "give as gift" to him each song, and then tell him why you chose each one in a netter in the box.

Ok cool thanks!
Cheeky Monkey 10-03-2007, 09:46 PM I send toys and stand up comedy dvds. i also sent him sheets for his cot, washed in my laundry soap and sprayed my perfume on his pillow case. he loved it, it was like he was sleeping in my bed...

See the thing is, I cant send anything like DVDs, his room has no power.
Mak327 10-03-2007, 10:10 PM another idea would be to go to build-a-bear. Make him a bear, dress it in something that you would wear. Then for a sound, get one of the ones that you can record yourself, and record a sweet message in it and put it in the bears hand.
You could also make one for yourself and dress it in military uniform. Take a picture of the two of them together. you keep the one in uniform, he gets the one to look like you. Spray it with your perfume, whatever to make it more like you.
*Brooke* 10-03-2007, 10:19 PM dang these ideas are helping me... lol. i can only think of things like lots of pictures and i went a bought a voice recorder and recorded a message and send it to my man with extra batteries and then he can record a message and send it back to me and so we can hear each others voice more often
annmarie 10-03-2007, 10:19 PM What are they? :mrgreen
uhmmmm lets see........ take a pick in his favorite panties, then put the pic and the panties sprayed with your favorite perfume into a ziplock baggie (so the smell wont fade) along with a bottle of lube that he can use when he........... lol.......... uhm,:blush, thinks of you.I just sent that and a teddie bear with a set of mini dog tags around his neck that I had inscribed with "journey safley back to me"to my DB. You would have thought I'd sent him a million dollars the way he reacted!!!
Mak327 10-03-2007, 10:38 PM Just had another idea. Since it is your wedding anniversary, do you still have a photo of you two at your wedding that you could make a copy of and put in a frame and/or print in a wallet size so that he can keep it with him.
hisbestgirl935th 10-04-2007, 01:23 PM CD of love songs
I agree... a whole bunch of songs that remind you of each other.
What about like a DVD of the first movie you ever saw together?
