i think i figured out my gift for my fiance!!!!

[cocolaw]

decanter

he loves scotch and we don''t have a pretty crystal decanter. we are not registered for one either. i think he would love to keep his scotch in a pretty container! i could also get him 2 matching glasses. what do you think????

"I love scotch. Scotchy, scotch, scotch. Here it goes down, down into my belly... "

i''m sorry- i couldn''t help myself. i think its gorgeous! your FI sounds so much more sophisticated than mine. FI would probably prefer beer. or maybe some vodka. that being said, do you think he would care about how its kept? sometimes girls think about those types of things way more than men.

That's a wonderful idea! My FI actually put this Nambe decanter on our registry

It was the only thing he wanted and he adores it! He uses it all the time and it's really stunning.

oh wow!!! that is a really nice set. it has a very masculine look to it.

Sounds like a great gift for your FI, and it''s a lovely piece! If you get the glasses to go with it, you could complete the gift with a small bottle of his fav scotch and a note teasing that a sip to calm his nerves before the ceremony is fine, but no teetering down the aisle.

 

[pocahontas]

Very thoughtful gift, Coco. I''m sure FI will love it.

Oh my gosh, I was just saying this (yes, aloud) as I opened the thread! Ha ha!

Great gift.

 

[MagsyMay]

I love it!! I''m sure you FI will too AND appreciate the though you put into it! Very sophisticated, yet practical at the same time

Sadly, I know what my FI wants, either a super expensive watch or Eames chair, so I better start saving my $$$!! (oh wait, I have no $$$''s, I''m unemployed!)

 

[princessplease]

Very nice gift!!!!!

 

[Inanna]

Cocolaw, that''s a FANTASTIC gift!!!

I''ve noticed that guys really seem to like decanters. My FI always notices decanters when we''re at other people''s houses (and not just ''cause of the booze). He will even comment on the the various design elements. Hmmmm... I may have to totally copy you and get my FI a decanter as well

I say also get him 2 matching glasses. He''ll love it!

Love this!! That decanter is gorgeous and makes me wish that I had a reason to purchase it.

 

[elrohwen]

Fantastic idea! I love it.

Oh, and LOL at Charbie. That quote was the first thing I thought of too!

 

[purselover]

Very nice!

great idea!!!!! so glad ya''ll like it!! i emailed tiffany last night to find out if they could somehow inscribe our wedding date on the bottom or something.

 

[cocolaw]

ok i bought them:
2 glasses
a decanter, etched in the bottom with "for mr. coco, love coco" and our wedding date, all for about $300. i think that is really good!! they will be ready in about 2 weeks!!

 

[marlie]

yay! i think this gift sounds great. i know a lot of scotch drinkers and i know they would all love it too. and, having the date etched in will make it extra special. he''s gonna love it!

 

[Bjedifish]

Oooh! Its beautiful! What a classy gift! I am sure he will love it!
