Where do you hide you OH's Christmas presents?

Just had a conversation with dh, him saying something about 'not looking through the present pile I have in our room'

If only he would for once in his life change the bed sheets, he would find all his presents underneath the clean bedding in the wardrobe :rotfl:

Where do you hide yours? :)
Can't think of anything smart to put here...

  • Lol hubby doesn't look but if he did I could think of plenty of places.. The dirty laundry basket, behind the hoover, in the dishwasher/oven... You get my drift ;-)

    My OH has just gone away with the Navy for 3 weeks... before he went he said "whatever u do DONT go in my clothes drawers" .... funny thing is he also left a massive pile of dirty "civvie" clothes that need washing so not sure what he wants me to do with them when theyre clean.... and our drawers have frosted panelled fronts so i can see the wrapping paper and shapes of the presents showing through :rotfl:

    I got all his delivered to my mums house and have only brought them here now hes not here :D

    Yep I get all his delivered to my mum's as well!

    They're usually fine there until Christmas Eve but if she starts making a fuss they go into the boot of my car :D

    I just wrap them and leave them under the tree. He never had a nose to try and work out what they are (or if he does, I've never caught him..)

    In a big box in one of the spare rooms, he just knew not to look there.

    He keeps my presents just on the floor in a pile (in bags/boxes/parcels) in another spare room (we have lots of spare rooms!). I could peek so easily if I wanted to!
  • I wrap them as soon as they arrive so no peeking for anyone in the family :)

    we both hide them in our clothes drawers, this year Ive spent almost 3 weeks (if not longer) having my tshirts sitting on top of the piano and presents where my clothes should be lol. They are all wrapped up now and under the tree. Ive one or two more to buy and wrap but I will just wrap as they get here now :D
