Christmas Gifts for Your Spouse

September 26, 2019
-
Posted by Lauren Rodych-Eberle

Okay, here I am giving away all my gift-giving ideas! If you didn’t know this already, I love themes, so in various years, I’ve tried to theme it up, mostly for my entertainment.

25 Days of Christmas

Jordan loved this one, because he received a gift for all 25 days of December! Before December started, I bought 25 gifts, wrapped them up and put a number on each one…1 for December 1st, 2 for December 2nd, etc. The gifts started small and got bigger as the month went on. There were many days of “stocking stuffer” type gifts, because otherwise this would have been an expensive and challenging endeavour. Save whatever you choose to be the “best gift” for last!

Ideas from my 25 days of Christmas:

  • Scratch and Win Lottery Tickets
  • Gum/Chocolate
  • Wine/Whiskey
  • Boxers/Socks
  • Books
  • Gift Cards (iTunes, restaurants)
  • Tie/Suit Accessories
  • “I Owe You” Coupons
  • Guitar picks/Capo/Guitar Accessories

The Five Senses of Christmas

Another year, I gifted Jordan five gifts under the tree, each one to do with one of the senses. I wrapped them up and wrote “Sight,” “Smell,” etc. on them! You can get creative with each sense and do something that works well for your spouse!

Ideas from my Five Senses of Christmas:

  • Sight: Blue Light Glasses/Virtual Reality Glasses
  • Hearing: iTunes Gift Card/Concert Tickets
  • Smell: Cologne/Body Wash/Essential Oils
  • Touch: Clothing/Blanket
  • Taste: Candy/Wine/Restaurant Gift Certificate

Quality Time

The majority of the time, I like to do a gift that gives us quality time together, whether it’s tickets to a show, concert tickets, comedy club passes, or anything else you can dream up. One time, Jordan gave me a hand made coupon for 10 Uncomplaining Walks – unfortunately, I didn’t cash them in before they expired…

Sentimental/Custom

It’s always nice to get a little mushy, and anything custom does that! Whether it’s a framed photo, a book of all the reasons you love them, Jones bottles with your own label on them, or something like this custom sports jacket I had made (see pic below), it’s pretty darn special!

Gifts

And lastly, a fun little tip, any time Jordan (or any of my peeps, for that matter), mention something they would just love to have, I save it in the notes section of my phone – then when it comes time to get them something special, I can refer back!

Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays! Hope you can find some joy in giving this year!

I am the owner of Miss Lauren’s Music Studio, where I teach voice, piano, ukulele, and preschool music classes – via Skype and within Calgary.

I wish everyone in the world had my parents as the I wish everyone in the world had my parents as their parents. 

Last night not only did they play with Collins while I worked, but they made dinner, did all the dishes, did laundry, ran a bath, and loved us fiercely. Getting this time in Calgary with them is always so precious, but last night I was in tears at their love and support. 

Honestly, I say it every time, but I won the parent lottery 😭
My Beginner Piano eCourse is fully out in the worl My Beginner Piano eCourse is fully out in the world!!

As of yesterday, the full course is released, and this wave of relief just washed over me!! The amount of time, energy, and resources that goes into these courses is more than I would have ever known, but I’m so happy, and grateful to have them available to people for a lifetime, and also to have a way to continue to offer music to many more people, in many more homes, for unlimited time!!

Tomorrow I’ll release a blog that will answer all the top questions I’ve been asked about my Preschool Music eCourse and my Beginner Piano eCourse, so you can see if they are a fit for you or anyone you know!!

But now, tell me a goal you’re dreaming up - work-related or not!!

I’m overdue for 5 Fun Facts, so let’s pair it I’m overdue for 5 Fun Facts, so let’s pair it with these five fun photos!

1. I didn’t like anything grapefruit before I had Collins, and now I’m always like, “Give me all the grapefruit sparkling water!”

2. I’ve always had multiple jobs from the time I was a teenager…I sum it up to me thinking that variety is the spice of life. 

3. I believe ketchup and mustard belong on breakfast egg sandwiches. 

4. If you asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would have said “a mom!” I still think it’s the greatest gift in the whole entire world. 

5. Even though I said variety is the spice of life, I am wildly good with repetition for an incredible amount of time…the same food, the same song, the same walk…I don’t know if it’s patience or just insanity, but I don’t get sick of the same thing over and over and over and over and over again. 

Give me a fun fact about you!!
