Easy Chocolate Covered Walnut Holiday Gift!

When it comes to gifts for your boy friend/girl friend, homemade always says "I love you" louder than store bought, and nothing makes Christmas merrier than chocolate! Here is a easy gift idea that's great for someone your love <3 

My boyfriend loves chocolate covered almonds, and he consumes they like water... so I figured that there is no better way to say "I love you" this Christmas than some homemade chocolate covered nuts.!

The first step is to make a double boilers.. I simply added water to my pot and placed a bigger bow on top. Make sure the bottom of the bow does not touch the water, else the chocolate will burn~

The Birthday Plan on a budget!

December 4th
My boyfriend's birthday is coming up, and I am scrambling to come up with ideas to make it a special day. Admittedly, my boyfriend has always put a bigger effort into my birthdays than I have in his ... It's not my fault really... his birthday always falls during exam time...

His birthday is on December 12th, and since it's a Wednesday, we will be celebrating it on December 8th, the Saturday before the week of his birthday.

Today is December 4th, and I will be updating this entry over the next 4 days as I plan out his birthday.

As a recent graduate, my finances is fairly tight.... good thing my bf is not a big present and fancy restaurant kind of guy. I did have to think insanely hard to come up with low budget, yet special birthday plan! I hope it will give you some ideas for your next creative, low budget birthday for your significant other!

Here is the basic plan I am think of:

Winter Luxe Box SPOILER!!!!!!!

So.. ever since I have joined Loose Button, I have been telling everyone about it!! And it so happens, that a friend of a friend of a friend of my works at Loose Button, and I was finally able to nag him into telling me one of the products that's going to be in the Winter Luxe Box!

Disclaimer: I am not promising anything, he could have lied for all I know..... so do not come back and hunt me if I am wrong!! but be sure to come back and thank me if I am Right!

So he told me that there is going to be a >>>>>KABUKI BRUSH!!!!<<<<<  and supposedly, it's from a really high-end brand!!

It's so awesome, because a good kabuki brushes can be very expensive! Even if you already have one, I think it make for a great gift!!

I hope it's pink... but then again I hope it's MAC.. I love MAC's kabuki brush <3 <3  

I hope you are all as excited as I am about the next winter box.
