Tips On Thursday...Great Gift Idea!

 For those of you that frequent Pinterest you are already aware of the huge amount of creative tips and ideas that you can glean from Pinners all over the world...

In the midst of heavy Wedding Season this particular gift idea

shared by Shannon Brown of  Find Joy In the Journey caught our eye...

12 preplanned, prepaid date nights..

This basket holds 12 envelopes.  Each labeled with a month of the year.  Each envelope contains a pre-planned, (mostly) pre-paid date just for the couple.  Some of the dates will take place at home, some are planned for the local area, and some will take you out of town.  All 12 dates are different.  Several, actually nearly all of the dates are things the couple has  never done before.

The plan is to open the envelope together at the beginning of the month, look at the calendar and decide on a date.  So right from the beginning of the month, you'll have a fun date on the calendar to look forward to.Shannon and her family are adorable...I know you'll want to visit her blog for lot's of creative living ideas.

This is the sweetest wedding gift, a great anniversary gift,  birthday or any other occasion...

You could get really creative with this ...and a wonderful idea for  that hard to buy for man or woman in your life...

And don't forget  to throw in at least one special date that require you to get all dressed up...

This is a wonderful gift idea! Who wouldn't appreciate a planned "date night" once a month! I'm also for the cool outfit too! :)

Such a wonderful idea, Mona. And I agree that a dress up date is important.
Have a great weekend.

This is a fantastic idea! Our 10 year anniversary is coming up next year...maybe I should give this to my very-hard-to-buy-for husband - I love it and I think he would too!
