Talking Ok, I need some ideas!

Hi All, I need your help.

My wonderful boyfriend's birthday is about a month away. This is all well and good of course, but I have absolutely NO idea what to get him! So come on, throw all your ideas out here for me! If it helps idea wise, yes, he's in a fraternity, he's also a big baseball fan, and he's Irish and very proud...I dunno, maybe that'll help someone come up with something. Thanks in advance for any ideas!!

My boyfriends Bday is this wednesday and he has been super stressed at work....SOOOO I put together a care package full of things to make him feel better.

I got one of those neck wrap things that can be warmed or cooled its in nice warm furry fleece and it has buckwheat inside to make it mushy...
I put Bath and Body works cederwood sage relax aromatheraphy. the bubble bath soak and the tenion relief massage oil,
i also put some lavander (great for helping you sleep) bath salts and an oil burner for lavander.

I didnt want it to be allllll about relaxing so I went to things rememebered (they have one online) and got him a nice new silver money clip with his name engraved on one side, and
"forever special" emgraved on the other.

I also plan on making his favorite pie and putting a birthday candle in it

Hope that helps to give you some ideas...
PM me for more...I love making creative gift ideas


*Edited to add...I can't spell today...please forgive my mistakes*

What's his favorite baseball team?

If it's within a reasonable distance, maybe some tickets to one of their games would be fun!

Does he play baseball? If so, get him a Louisville Slugger with his name on it. A guy bought one for my friend as a wedding gift (yeah), but it was really nice!

What if you did a baseball package?? Take him out for a nice dinner, give him a new jersey from the Sox or get him some cool autographed memoribilia...and THEN use his tickets to go to the game

If he is a macho man put together a macho man kinda care package,
put a bottle of wine or a case of his fav beer what ever it is...all his fav candies, snack foods, his fav movies on dvd or vhs and plan a night in to let him be a "guy"

i always try to make presents like this cause i feel they take a lil more thought and also show just how much you know him

hope this helps..
get silly too care packages are fun with a few "gag items"

have fun with it
you can package it up in a bag, a box, or something creative like a hat or something you pick up at a dollar store or something..

hope this helps

Idea 1:
Group of Fraternity, Baseball, and/or Irish Pride drinking glasses, mugs, or shot glasses

Ideas 2:
Get something you both can enjoy...spa massages or a trip to a hot tub
