So I’ve had this post protected since it had to do with my making of a special birthday present for my best friend Val.. Heh. Birthdays generally aren’t a big deal with me, but ever since Val threw me an amazing, wonderful surprise birthday party when I was 17, we’ve more or less placed great significance in celebrating each other’s birthday every year..
Val’s birthday is 10 days before mine, making her slightly more than a week older than me.. But she acts like she’s YEARS older than me most of the time =Pp Hehe. Anyhoo, val’s given me some amazing gifts or thrown me some pretty awesome parties for my previous birthdays, more notably a huge, BEAUTIFUL scrapbook of our escapades together when I was 19 and a precious stone necklace when I was 21, amongst others..
I, on the other hand, have written her a play (and made our friends perform it for her while she enjoyed a “posh” meal lol) and bought her something special for her 18th and bought her a Coach wallet for her 21st.. So I guess you can say we’re pretty good at the gift giving.. This year, I wanted to prove to her that I could make pretty stuff too! Heh (since it’s a common misconception that I suck at crafts.. =Pp) so initially I wanted to make her a scrapbook of our recent trip to UK and Berlin..
That, however, proved to be too tedious since I couldn’t even make up my mind about what pictures to use.. I soon came up with the idea of creating a Seduction Kit for her (yea we’re funky like that) so I went about getting materials and thinking what should go in it.. Here is the MAKING OF the seduction kit for my best friend’s 22nd birthday present!
The beautiful box =)
Inside the box
I couldn’t find proper packing cotton anywhere so I bought cotton balls and shredded them myself!
Gah, they look wormy..
Pretty!! =)
2 layers of pink paper +cotton wool!
things that go inside… body lotions etc.. haha
some people say guava is erotic..!
in they go!
pretty!! =)
lots of shredded cotton wool!
sexay boaaa

On to the card!!

Inside the seduction kit:
1) Soft layers of pink pretty paper and cotton wool
2) Body lotion, shower gel, lip butter, all guava scented =)
3) DVD of the hottest seduction songs on this planet including the best of Marvin Gaye, Je T’aime Non Plus, and others..
4) A little book (=P)
5) Sexy red feather boa (use your imagination)
6) Pretty card!!
So, what do you think? Like the gift? Heh. Val liked it. I took her to a pretty fancy restaurant for dinner too =) We all had a blast. See more pictures here (facebook album) ..! =)

LOL! A seduction kit? Nice one, why didn’t I thought of that! Hope you don’t mind me borrowing that idea in the future.
The red feather adds a nice touch. Looks like you guys have a blast.

Very creative! I think my friends would be quite confused if I gave them a seduction kit, but nevertheless, it’s a great idea! I hope your friend likes it!
