I need creative hand made christmas gift ideas for a boyfriend!?
Do boyfriends even like hand made gifts for Christmas, or do they like things that are bought better?
Anyway, I need ideas for something to get my boyfriend for Christmas. I'm trying to make him something creative. Something more unique than a scrap book.
I'm trying to make something out of drum sticks because he's a drummer, but I don't know what. Or maybe paint something. Any ideas?
I think it's nice that you are trying to put more effort into it than just buying something. Musicians, especially percussionists are into getting creative.
The links below will give you some ideas
or get him a dvd like "stomp"or blast where pro musicians use improvised instruments or a cd of a great drummer. I would choose a style that he's NOT into, so he can learn different techniques and different polyrhythms. "Dafos" or the "appocalypse now sessions" would be good.
Make him a cd of the great drummers of all time. Carmine Apice, peter erskine, buddy rich, john bonham, louie bellson, neil peart, steve gadd, krupa,poncho sanchez, keith moon, ginger baker, mick fleetwood. ONE song per drummer. That would show him you really take what he loves seriously. If you can, add a song with him on it, so the cd of the greatest drummers of all time will have your favorite drummer on it. HIM
Merry Christmas to you both!
EDIT: I like Amy's idea too. I'm a guy and I'm a musician and I can tell you we never turn down food!
