He's a keeper!
 

I have an amazing husband. He got me a beautiful hand crafted box from the Ukraine for our anniversary. And guess what he wrapped it in?????? Fabric from my favorite quilt shop. The white dots in the design of the box are seed beads. The wrapping "paper" is the fabric in the pictures.

Such a lovely, thoughtful anniversary gift. He is a keeper :-)

That box is so beautiful! I love the beadwork on it. Yes, your hubby deserves to be a keeper :D Looks like he sure knows how to make his woman happy-- fabric and pretty boxes!

How sweet and wonderful! Happy anniversary!

beautiful gift

He's a keeper!

What a gorgeous box! What a thoughtful hubby!

Thanks ladies, and Tartan I'm not sure. I am not a jewelry person so definitely not jewelry.

Beautiful. Both box and fabric. Happy anniversary

That is just precious, the whole thing!! Thanks for sharing.
Happy Anniversary!
Looks like he feels you are a "keeper" as well :)

beautiful special gift. lovely handwork.

Gorgeous box,lots of time and talent went into it's making. Happy Anniversary.

That is gorgeous. I'm curious how it came about. Do you collect handmade boxes or Ukrainian things?

Beautiful box and lovely fabric. Happy anniversary.

what a sweet man. Beautiful gifts and so truly loving

What a thoughtful gift!! It's beautiful. Maybe keep some of your sewing items in it.

WOW, wow, and Wow!!!!!! Happy Anniversary. Lovely gift. You are Blessed.

I don't know if you'd say I collect boxes, but have always loved a cool box. His wedding gift to me was a carved stone box, that has a victorian wedding scene carved into the top. A different anniversary he got me an intriquitly carved box w/ a secret way to open it. And I found one at a garage sale that is carved w/ apothecary type drawers (5 drawers) it reminds me of Spanish mideavil w/ chunky carving and metal work.

wow that is a beautiful gift. yup i would say he is a keeper

You've got a keeper - beautiful box and fabric.

Happy anniversary! Keep occasionally used and extra quilting things....like an extra pack of large needles and some extra rotary cutting blades. Make use of the box and that will make that man even happier.

Beautiful hand crafted keepsake, awesome hubby. Happy Anniversary.

Such a pretty box. Happy Wife, happy life. Congrats for your anniversary.

Congrats on your anniversary and your choice of a husband.

that is lovely. the box and the gift of fabric too. My best friend is Ukrainian. born here but her family is from there.

Oh my! That is just stunning. You are right. He certainly is a keeper. My Jim once made me a quilt rack, and a shelf unit for my cup plates.

I do like your box and the fabric. However, that verse is priceless! It says wonderful things about you and the love you share. Congratulations and may you have lots more wonderful anniversaries together.

He was going to put my favorite scripture in it, but it was to long so he chose that verse.

Very nice!!! And what did you get him?

OMG,, That is so Precious looks as though he see's you as a keeper as well
Happy Anniversary ,,,Thanks for sharing

A tent not nearly as romantic but he liked it.

Let me be clear NOT a tent I will use w/ him, I only camp in motels w/ running hot water and beds.

Beautiful gift and very pretty fabric. He is definitely a keeper!!

What a beautiful and thoughtful gift!

Hahaha - that's too funny! I hear ya. Did enough of tenting when our kids were growing up :D

Sew,sew sweet! You are right, he's a keeper. Thanks for sharing.
