Middle one is by far the nicest

I love it to,
I just picked it out of seing it and instantly liking it, but no gem on it.. kinda expensive for what it is..
Vicky.
09-02-2010, 01:53 AM
Does that say eternity on it or is it my eyes...if it does...it will really depend on how long you have been seeing her..eternity might be a little much...
30stone

Its eternity silver by brand so i imagine the other side says "silver"..
but only a month nd a half.. and not even really together properly.

Ah right.
Well..the second one is nicer, Id much prefer that, but it does seem a little steep for what it is...especially if you arent together properly...
Out of the other 2, the birthstone one is nicer...

Yeah, I wouldn't be into the big pressie thing for Valentines day either, it's a big commercial thing nowadays, my hubby usually gets me a card and flowers and I'll probably get him a DVD and a card, just a token really

no offence ben or anyone else but why do you have to buy gifts just cos card companys say its the day to declare you're love surely its better to buy something like flowers etc any other day of the year just because you love them rather than cos you feel obliged to do so purely cos of what date is on the calendar
Niamh.

Not really, he's all man lol but his mother died when he was 13 and his dad didn't live with them so he had to look after himself alot so he can cook etc.

Yeah its madness, 10 pound, some were 25 pound for a single red rose in this little box thing.. Its a flower that will die within 10 days lol..
Ill just pick one out of someones garden.. :)
My mum makes cards too as a hobby very nice stylish ones, so ill try get her to help me and see if she and me can make one saturday.
I just ordered the second one for anyone that wants to know, with a gift box and a message :) didnt have it in town so had to order online.

Thats what i meant.
Im going to see if she can help me make it, as she has a better touch especially if there is something to colour..
And design..
They arent like how someone makes a card for another person, most people that buy them say they are better designed than the handmade ones in shops..
So yeah i will basically help out, say what i want and say how i want it and she will put it together :)

but dont tacky up your gift by buying the cushion
30stone
09-02-2010, 05:52 PM
Okay :) thats probably good advice, i tend to go overboard on gifts if i have the money...
Mum says both me and my brother do, got his girlfriend a 240 pound watch for xmas..
Saying that hes moving into his own house and she may be moving in with him, and they have been together for quite a while now so guess its more serious.
Homemade card will be awesome, my mum makes me one for my brithday and christmas each year, my most recent one she had a little fluffy animal doing weights, and my car in the background lol.
