Pageboy Gifts

sharpee

Ok so I have been really rubbish at sorting out presents and only have 3 weeks to go! :T:(

My future stepson who is 9years old os going to be our Page boy. I want to get him something of a keepsake as a gift. Any ideas?

I've already got him Page boy socks and cufflinks but wanted something for him to keep as a momento of the day

Is he too old for teddies?
Something like build a bear to get a teddy in a suit?
Or people have done personalised glasses / cups too.

I'm struggling for ideas too. My OH nephew is our page boy and he will be 10 years old.

I think a teddy would be too childish but I've seen some nice glasses on eBay that the lady paints to match the outfit, hair colour, their name and a message. I might get that and fill it with sweets.
I might get another one for his sister who is flower girl and will be 7 years old, although I've bought her a necklace as a present to wear on the day

I went for an engraved pocketfob watch for my 12 year old son - he was thrilled with it, and it will be something he can keep forever....
We also got him a personalised mug and coaster - which he loves....

All under a tenner from ebay.....

Ah now I had considered a pocket watch!

Could you PM me the seller you bought them from Nikki44 please?

Thanks for all your help and suggestions!

I went for a pocket watch in the end. Ordered on ebay after carefully going through all the different sellers and checking their feedback.

I ordered it on Thursday night and it arrived Saturday morning! It looks great and only cost £12.99 with free postage

So happy!:j

I'd be interested to see how well these cheaper pocket watches last. I was scared off buying them for my ushers, as I really wanted to give them something that would keep working for a good few years - so I bought Sekonda ones instead of the cheap ebay ones...But there's a large part of me thinks they're probably just as good....

Hi!

Thought I'd resurrect this thread rather than start a new one.

My page boy is aged five, and I'm struggling to think of anything! I want something as a keepsake, and he's not really into teddy bears.

Any ideas gratefully received.
