I donā€™t know if any of the items in my shop would be suitable. I use natural gemstones in my work. I have some lovely ammonites - which might take care of the history and nature interest in one. Not listed as yet, but I could make a piece for you if you like?

Iā€™ve made a cute froggie phone charm that a fan of the outdoors might like.

I could easily make him into a keyring and add some flowers like the beaded ones below

Hope that helps, good luck present hunting.

A card to go with the present. This says ā€˜Retirementā€™ but h
this could be changed to ā€˜Happy 70th Birthdayā€™ā€¦

Special supper with candles and a home made cakeā€¦then a walk under the stars afterwardsā€¦

33

That sounds so romantic, Astrid. I will tell hubby I would like that on my birthday - knowing my luck, I would have to bake the cake myself, cook tea, then it will rain!

well it does workā€¦i did it for my husband,except the cake came out badly as im not a great cook.Luckily though i had enough time to nip down to a special shop to buy him a cakeā€¦so he thought i had made it by hand the evening was a big successā€¦it was a bit sneaky though,with regards to the um cake! but the rest of the meal was made by me.

35

So pleased you both had a lovely time - your secret is safe with us!

I make these quirky style cushions shaped in a form of a lady and they have the added benefit of resting nicely around the neck when you need to rest your neck and can work beautifully within your home decorā€¦Perfect gift for any occasion! check them out @ Sosome shop

This note pad cover is very stylish, and environmentally friendly too as itā€™s reusable:

Some lovely ideas here. You might like a new wallet Iā€™ve just added in my shop. I love making these and this is a new tweed that I get direct from a weaver on the Island of Lewis - woven in her own back yard!
