I'm 18 and unfortunately low on money this Christmas and out of a job but I still want to celebrate Christmas and get my boyfriend a present. I'm just learning how to knit so I can make simple things for him, but I'm still a beginner.
He LOVES music and writes his own songs. He's also a writer and is in the process of writing a story. I have no clue what to do with that though. I'm really good at drawing, painting, baking (not cooking though, ha) and I'm in the process of learning to knit.
Anyone have any ideas of what I can do for him with all these things? I want to make it special for him since it's been such a rough year but I'm drawing a blank here.

⢠Make a video
If you know how to use the editing and video software on your computer and have a video of the two of you, you can create a video with music and special effects.
⢠Create a playlist
Try to take his iPod from him and upload a special playlist you downloaded from Napster or iTunes. Choose songs that remind you of him and ones that you know he would like but hasn't downloaded yet.
⢠Picture frame
Buy a plain picture frame from a craft store that you can decorate. Put a funny or loving caption on the top or bottom and then place a special picture inside.
⢠Treasure hunt
You can make this as big or small as you would like. Have him find little treasures all around your town or just in your home and make the big, final treasure â you!
⢠Romantic evening
Make a special dinner he likes and turn your bathroom into a spa that both of you can enjoy.
⢠Collage
Create a collage of pictures he can hang on his wall. You can either handwrite or print out a poem to place in the middle and then arrange the photos around it. He can place it on his wall and stare at it for hours thinking about how much he loves you.
The Romantic Map
Yes, think of all the places where you guys went out together. The first date, the first movie, the first kiss, his favorite restaurant, the coffee place where you spent hours gazing into each otherâs eyesâ¦al this and much more. Make a map of your city, and mark all these special places. Use glitter, stickers and loads of colors to make your map attractive. In case you want to make it look like a real one, mark the latitude and longitude lines with a pencil. To give it a rustic look, burn the edges at the corners to make it look like an old map. When you are done, roll it up and tie it with a satin ribbon. To make it more interesting, place the map in a wooden chest that appears like a treasure box.
Photo Key chain
This homemade gift is quite a mushy and romantic gift, but it is also useful as a key chain. Collect some good snaps of the two of you together, and take small sized prints of all these snaps. Once you have the prints, get every snap laminated with a plastic coating to protect it from water and other damage. Now punch holes at the top of every photograph. Once youâve punched the holes put these into a simple key ring to create a very romantic personalized key chain for your boyfriend.
Memory Collage
The movie tickets from your first date, your high school snapshots, the egg shells from the day he made you breakfast in bed, the gift wrapper for your first gift, a tissue paper from his favorite coffee shop, the first rose that he gave youâ¦If you are the one who collects such things, then this is the gift idea for your boyfriend. Get a big cardboard piece and stick all these little memories on to it. Once youâre done sticking all the things, draw hearts and fill up the spaces with love messages and quotes.
The Ultimate Romantic Scrapbook
A scrapbook is a great way to capture the fond memories forever. In case you donât want to buy a scrapbook kit, just make customized scrapbook pages at home by cutting a chart paper. Use innovative ideas to decorate the scrapbook. Paste pictures, paper flowers, draw sketches, graffiti, quotes and your personal messages on every page. Use stickers, newspaper cutouts and sketch pens to decorate the book. Write what you feel about him, the way you felt when you first met him and so on.
The Book
I remember reading this idea somewhere on the net. It is an awesome idea sure to hit the target. This idea is for people who chat a lot using the Internet messengers. The idea is pretty simple, just copy and paste all your chats into a word document, get it printed on a good quality paper with golden edges. Hard bind the pages and make a book and give a romantic title, which should be embossed on the front cover. A book that contains your online chatsâ¦now thatâs romantic!
Handmade Knits
Some of you might find this a tad bit old fashioned, but go for it if you know how to knit. You can knit a great sweater or a muffler for your boyfriend. You can personalize it by adding his initials on the sweater to make him feel truly special. You can even create personalized hankies for him as a gift. It is a very romantic idea, and most guys would love it. Also every time he wears the sweater, heâll think of you and will instantly have a smile on his face.
Cookies and Chocolates
If you are a great cook, and your guy is a foodie, then this is the idea for you. A freshly baked pan of cookies will do the trick. Bake his favorite cookies and make them heart-shaped to make the gift truly romantic. You can toss the fresh cookies into a cute basket and top it with some ribbons, and a cute greeting card attached to the basket. You can also print a
