Better late than never!!
This Valentine post comes a bit late . I wanted to share a Valentine gift I earlier made for Raj : ) I cannot share about the one I am making for this year.
When he received this one , he thought that the cover is nothing but an envelope/case , a similar one which I made for his fabric Birthday card. I had to tell him that this is my satin top/gown with buttons ; ) Annndddd, when you open, POP! Comes out my heart for you!!! : )
No idea, whether he really was naïve to understand it or was he still thinking about office when I gave him . Anyways , I magnanimously forgave him that day for being unperceptive about my creativity : )
The heart is made of felt fabric and the cover, with a satin fabric ; sprinkled few embellishments : some stitched , some glued !! This is my first ever and so far the only one , felt project . The snow globe in the picture is a gift Raj got for me from one of his visits to San Francisco. It has a personalized message for me inscribed on it.
I usually end up in loss for the month of February . My B’day is on 13th Feb , 14th is Valentine day and on 17th Feb , is our wedding anniversary . While I get gift on my B’day , Raj expects other two gifts from me!! Sometimes we end up without any gift on Valentine day . On Wedding anniversary , we go together and buy a common gift . Not a bad deal I guess : )
Isn’t the gift romantic? Definition and expression of romance & love changes as we move ahead in life. Every stage of life has its own pleasures : )
Happy week ahead !!
Do write in !

Awe..thats so sweet! But i must admit frankly that me and my husband have rarely celebrated V-day. And now, after kids there are times when we don't even know what date it is! But guess we are going to grow old in love :) and men will be men!
ReplyDeleteThat's so sweet! :) Men just don't want to show that they are sensitive towards such things too, but they like when we make something special for them. I also gifted a crochet heart to my husband last year, and it was my first (after so many years) crochet work.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy all our special days in Feb!
Have a nice day
ANna.
