writes:I need some ideas for a 3 year anniversary date and possibly a gift I could make for my girlfriend. I spoil her endlessly year round because she is my princess and when things like anniversaries come up I like to come up with more memorable dates and gifts than just expensive ones. I usually manage to think of things on my own as I have the previous anniversaries but this time I'm drawing a blank. I have a week to come up with something. Please help!

 Well, it's been three years... maybe it's time to 'remind' her of how you both met.
Take her back to the place where you both met.. bring back some of those sweet memories. :)

 Presents : They sell candle making kits, you could make her an anniversary scented candle or set of candles in her favourite colour, with her nickname on ,or the date when you met, etc.
Or : Go buy some really stylish, expensive, old fashioned writing paper, and have it engraved with her initials. Nobody writes letters anymore ? You do :) You take the first sheet , write on it a beautiful love letter in which you tell her all the things you love about her, and, you ask her to promise, that , while for normal messages you'll still use text etc., when she feel like writing from the heart , and sharing her deepest emotions about the relationship / about you, good or bad they nay be, she will use that paper only and will write by snail mail.
Or :Bake her a cake with your own hands ,- it does not matter if you are no cool and it does not look perfect -, and hide inside it the real present ( something small, a charm, a ring, an earring.... ). I guess though you wil have to forego the surprise element, and tell her that there's something special inside the cake and to go look for it- least your next romantic date should be at the local E.R.)
Or : ( that may be expensive, though, even if you do not use gold ) have her made a charm bracelet with every charm symbolizing her and the things that speak about her : you know, a cat if she loves cats, a tennis racket if she plays tennis, a book if she is a reader etc.
Dates : someone I know was offered a hot air-ballon ride, it sounds awfully romantic - although it would not be for e because I am afraid of heights ! But if she is not...
- Maybe better a horse ride somewhere nice in the country. It does not matter if it is the first time, you can bring along the instructor ( at a discrete, not-intrusive distance ) and they give you the tamest horses ever.
- A couple massage in a Spa . You know that stuff with hot stones, or sea salt scrubs, or whatnot, they invent something new every day
- This may sound banal, and IS banal, but I still have to meet the girl who once in a blue moon does not like to get all dolled up and go ot for dinner in a fancy ," grown up " restaurant , jacket-and-tie and silver cutlery and all. Paericularly if you are the sporty, casual rtpe who normally would prefer fast food or Chinese or pizza.
Happy anniversary and let us know what you did .

 Buy a quality looking blank notebook.
On the opening page you can title it with something special, such as 'Why I love (her name) ' OR 'Journal of loved dedicated to (her name) '
Then write something special on each page. Some pages can be just a loving quote.
Another page a quote about love by someone else.
Then every few pages write from the heart something that is endearing about your girl friend.
Or a special recollection about your girl friend.
topics to write about - the following are examples that you can recall from memory about your girl friend:
1.How you felt the first time you realized there was something special about her
2. Something that you especially like about her
3. Your fond memories of your first date with her
Shakespeare includes many loving quotes and remarks that you could quote.
4. You could also start off with 'How much do I love you, let me count the ways....'
So that every few pages there appears a page dedicated to things you love about her and number each one.
If you can draw then add in some drawings of places you have visited.
Sprinkle some tiny gold or red paper hearts in between the pages.
when it is done tie it up in ribbon that is a colour that she really loves.
Hope you can see some inspiration in this suggestion?
