Legends and Myths theme Father’s Day…Wives, children and parents scurry around the shopping mall trying to find that perfect gift for their husband, father and son. Some spend a few Rand, others don’t mind going the extra few thousand Rand in total. Many children indulge in their creativity and make beautiful hand-crafted items whereas there are quite a few Dad’s out there that don’t feel or have the love that is spread throughout this day. My heart truly goes out to all of them! As we all usually follow tradition or then the ‘norm’ of things, we end up giving our significant others a fat delicious chocolate or some Daddy’s toy gadget. But don’t you get bored with the same kind of gift year in and year out? Not to keep you in the dark any longer – I found the perfect gift…FOR ANY OCCASION REALLY! Let me introduce to you our very own ‘The Book Case’ book box. The theme for this special Father’s Day was ‘Legends and Myths’ – “When something goes wrong, the first thing I always think is, it is Loki’s fault”. Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman. I really wasn’t sure how my hubby would feel about receiving his own book box. Does he read? Not really. Does he share my excitement when I receive my monthly book box? Hell Yes! Does he ‘hint-hint’ that he wants some of the goodies in the box as well? Freakin YES YES! Well, then this book box would be the perfect gift – none of us know what Daddy will be receiving, and it’s something completely out of the norm…well at least for us. Once again, The Book Case has delivered and to hear a “Wow” from Daddy…pat on my back…yeah, that was my gift idea! “😊 Again, to no surprise, we received the box in record time given our categorization within the courier departments. So, the box was placed on the bed. Kiddo’s buzzed like flies around the room of course. Daddy walked around with a huge smile on his face and I of course couldn’t contain my excitement… “What book is inside honey????” Eventually after much begging…from our side…Daddy finally started opening the box…literally piece by piece. The look on his face was a once in a lifetime photographic moment I will treasure always. He was so chuffed when he pulled out the magical ‘Evil Eye Talisman’ bookmark exclusively by Bee-autifully Yours. Next, it was an exclusive mythology atlas notebook – Mixed Artwork. What we really liked about this notebook was its synthetic hard cover leather feel. Really fancy! Then of course what would a special day be without some socks!? They were cute funky socks by Toe Porn. Eventually it was given to me as a gift – Daddy wasn’t too fond of the ‘funkiness’, but now I’m wearing it. So, who’s complaining! Then he took out a little tin mug made exclusively by PaperCUTE. Now this he really loved, as it was added to his survival back-pack. You know, for that unexpected “GRAB YOUR BAGS AND RUN” moment… Now for the biggest surprise in the book box…I mean, this is after all the main idea behind such a box, except for all the cool bookish goodies. When hubby saw the book, he sat quietly and just absorbed what he held in his hands. Now remember, this is a guy that doesn’t really read. The whole look and feel of the book was absolutely stunning! We received the paperback, but MAN, what an absolute beauty. Soft feel. A real mystical type of energy. Coming to the conclusion…once again The Book Case, you really delivered. Hubby absolutely loves his book…and survival little mug! He’s loving his new read and dreading each moment he nears the end.
