Title: Suggestions of gift to get for my wife for our new Games room
Post by: MarkVS on December 14, 2013, 03:11:36 PM
We are putting in a new games room. It will have a big bar fridge, Pool table, table tennis table, Foosball table, dart board, and projector.

It will be a real get together room for us and for us to have friends over.

There are plenty of 'items/diddies' you can get for men for this sort of room..Man cave items etc.

But I'd like to get something for my wife(Kerry) for the room. But I can't think of anything...


SO...any suggestions of signs, diddies etc,.. that are suitable for a woman for this sort of room would be greatly appreciated.

I find jewellery or flowers work very well Mark.

Nothing to do with the games room, but always good results....... ;D ;D ;D ;D

Will the new games room have its' own post code??

Thanks Mark...Kerry is keen on that as well......and a AUS map up on the wall, marked out trips, stickers up there as well etc...

I suppose I'm struggling with finding some type of Diddi/thing/oddity/neon sign etc. that is female rather than male orientated...

In regards to the photos of trips for my sister for xmas I made a canvas collage for her with photos of her son first child born earlier this year.  She already has it as we wont see her for xmas but she absolutely loved it and I have seen a picture of it hanging up looks good.  Perhaps that would be an option you can put writing on them also. Not sure about a sign or something sorry

You guys could be right...maybe I need to think about doing something with the photos for her. Rather than thinking of a female version of a male present (sign etc)

Make one of the walls in your games room devoted to Family. Include trips and also momemtos of Olivia growing up, times that the three of you were together. A guaranteed winner with Mums,

But as Geoff said a small shiny thing in a box is a good standby
