This past weekend, my husband and I celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary. We had a date night complete with a movie and dinner at The Melting Pot. We also gave gifts. While I got some lovely roses and chocolates, my husband got this.
He's a long-time Mario fan and we are both big nerds. I had been picturing making him this for awhile and even though it's not very romantic, this was the gift.
I found the glass bowl at the hardware store and filled it with rocks and dirt. I then added a few succulents, using the most "Mario-looking" ones I could find.
The warp pipe is just a piece of pipe from the hardware store that I painted green. And I found this Mario figure. I could only find a small enough figure in a set, but now we just have extra toys. Can't go wrong with more toys.
What do you guys think? I also have an idea to make a Doctor Who themed one, possibly with a TARDIS. But that one will be for myself...
Happy Anniversary to you both! I think that is a very meaningful gift :)
