For those of you who have loved ones that are hard to shop for (i.e. my boyfriend!), I found the most neat gift idea a few months back! It's called a "Love Book".
You can go online and design your own book (hard or soft back) and illustrations- then, you fill in each page (unlimited) with things that you love about the person. You could make one for a family member or a significant other. Since you can personalize every single page, you can make it as detailed as you want. Or, if you're not insanely creative, they also have premade pages you can look at too! Here is the link:

http://www.lovebookonline.com/

I decided to make one for my boyfriend Jack's birthday (it's today). I started making it a few months ago and finally finalized everything and ordered it a few weeks ago. I picked it up today and it turned out lovely!!
I chose a hard back and have over 200+ pages in it. I'm really impressed with how quickly the company ships and what a good quality present you get with your order! For a hard copy book that will hopefully last a very long time, it was under $40 (soft backs are around $25). I will have to post pictures after he opens his present! Hopefully it will be a hit.
Anways, I just thought I would pass that website along to the rest of you that are still looking for Christmas ideas! Not only is it a great price, it has a lot of love and meaning behind it- perfect for birthdays or Christmas!

I like that, too. We'll be married 40 years in April and I may do that for DH. Thanks!

I've started making one for Christmas
I'm hoping it gets here on time (that I can finish it on time)


Thanks so much for sharing, I hope you'll post a few pics and let us know how Jack liked his.


OH FYI: there's a discount now, save 20% till Dec. 8th

Of course they offer a discount after the fact lol!
I'm really glad you're going to make one!!
They're a lot of fun to make and personalize! (Just make sure you spell check and make sure the images are correct before you place your order and everything should turn out well!). I had mine within about 5 days from the time I placed the order until it arrived at my apartment complex, but with Christmas comming, they may be a little slower.


Jack wound up loving his birthday present!
I was able to get a few pictures of it! I'll share them soon!
