What about a framed photo of the two of you for his desk at work?

I actually just thought of that right now and think that I may get a photo from our punta cana vacation printed and framed for my fiancee. Hmmm....trying to think for you led me to a good idea for me. Thanks!

Was going to suggest that you dig up an old photo of a very special event/trip of just the two of you and put into a novelty or specialty frame from the store.

OR take him out for a walk one night (w/o kids) and have a route planned out, at this bakery you two first shared your hot chocolate, at this park you had a very special kiss etc. Heck if all this is applicable, make it into a scavenger hunt that you can accompany him

I'm not sure if this is "romantic". But he will think of you every day if you have a mousepad made with pictures of you, or the two of you. $10.00 or so...

Also, Romantic at our house is a bottle of wine & a fire in the fire place. So if you have a special "something" wrap it up with a promise to enjoy it together.

To answer someone's question...I'm thinking romantic sweet, warm fuzzy not really sexy...I've got the sex covered! LOL!

One year I made DH a photo book. It was random pictures of him (some posed, some totally spontaneous) I made a photo book, one photo and then a blank page, photo, blank page... I put them together with binder clips and the covers of an old hardcover book (long beyond repair) that were recovered with fabric.
On the blank pages, I would put things like "I love the way you smile" and the picture adjecent to that page would have a picture of him smiling. The next might be, "You are a hero to your family" and then accompanying picture is one of him at work. etc...

How about give him a jar or a heart-shaped tin filled with pieces of paper that have written on them all the things you love about him or special memories that mean a lot to you. Then he can pull one out a week.

Or make a collage with his name in the middle and cut out words that you think describe him and paste them around his name - then frame it.

Buy a big bag of marbles and a clear glass dish to pour them in....but on the large marbles, with a permanent marker, write important dates, like the 1 st time you met, dated, moved in together, etc....and put them in the mix......(if he's lousy about remembering those dates, that's a plus, because now he can go to the jar, and keep himself in ck)

Buy a small compass, and wrap it, and have a note reading "I'd be lost without you"....inside the box, with it.

Buy a nice globe, and post a note with it saying "Out of all the men in the world, I'm lucky I found you."...
