First of all, Happy New Year to all! I know its a bit late but better late than never!

Just before the turn of the new year, the missus and I celebrated our anniversary. We celebrated with a movie, a dinner and, of course, anniversary GIFTS! My gift from her was of course my PSP hehe, which was 3 gifts in one.

I was actually considering engraving a glass for her to use at work but unfortunately, I got banned by the missus to give her any glass engraved gifts for any occasion.

At first I was stumped as to why she slapped such a ban on me but after much thought, I guess it makes sense. Even though I have a skill that is rare, she has seen too much of my work and feels that she deserves something other than what I can make. Something different. Its kinda “sad” that my skill isn’t so special to her anymore. Sigh…

On the other hand, an ex-schoolmate of mine got me to engrave her anniversary gifts for her loved one.  She wanted just a simple design, playing on the phrase, “M & M”, the initials of their first names.

I came up with this and she liked it a lot.

She passed me the pair of glasses that she wanted the design to be engraved on and I got to work.

Here’s the final product:

Hope I made her and her husband-to-be happy!

With this, I can now add anniversary gifts to my growing range of “products”:

Customised, glass engravings as :

• birthday gifts
• wedding gifts/favors
• christmas gifts
• anniversary gifts

Medium? Glass of course!

Do send me an email if you’d like me to help you out on creating that extra special gift for that special person!
