Struggling with DH anniversary gift

9 replies

Snorefest · 13/07/2021 17:49

Hello- am really struggling with gift ideas for DH. We can't go on holiday given the current situation and also have small DC. So want to get him something really nice. The theme is actually wood (5 years) but am open to other ideas. Not into anything personalised or any knick knacks that will just collect dust. Also not really a drinker and not into sports. He's really into gadgets and DIY. He's actually building a pc from scratch at the moment so very much into computers but already has an iPad, iPod, huge TV, kindle, decent phone etc. Help!

How about a trip/short break to the New Forest? Depending on where you live of course OP

@DarlingCoffee - thanks! That's such a great idea but we have very young DC (including a baby) so I know he's not keen to go away given it's such hard work with them at the moment.
Ideally looking for something diy or gadget related.

If he's into DIY maybe some nice personalised wooden handle tools? I appreciate they're not very decadent but fit in with the theme 🙂

Would he like an activity booked for him.

Depends where you live but I have previously booked for DH or DSs

Wooden charging station for his gadgets ? https://www.etsy.com/market/woodchargingg_station

Actually, these are nicer, the wooden bench is also lovely https://makemesomethingspecial.com/product-category/all-products/?gclid=CjwKCAjw87SHBhBiEiwAukSeUcD9SESUdjMWvEFp5Xi14xHSf9H6YnTdU55xFS15hw21DPaytnBaBoCM6wQAvDBwE
