Trying to be as cunning as a cunning fox

Boo76, 7 April, 2009 at 13:55 Posted on Planning 0 10

Where are you hiding all of your wedding purchases in your house? I am in need of cunning ideas for cunning hiding places for various wedding things such as gorgeous new handbag, gorgeous new shoes, gorgeous new accessories and the little secret bits and bobs I am planning to give OH on the morning of the wedding. Many more bits to get too so the stash is only going to get bigger.... Small ish house and parents / bridesmaids live too far away to run things over there anytime, plus how could I keep trying them on and marvelling at their gorgeousness if they aren't kept at home?!

    Just think of the places your OH is never likely to see them.

    For me it would be in the cleaning cupboard, behind the hoover, anywhere near any laundry or in either of the kids bedrooms!!

    For me it would be with all the other wedding things! I doubt he's ever likely to go near the boxes of stuff I seem to be collecting!

    If you don't think that would work, how about in your wardrobe? drawers? with the Christmas decorations? (unlikely to look there before December!)

    Great thread title, reminds me of Baldrick ?

    Our flat is pretty small so I may have a similar problem when it comes to it, I would probably shove it all in my wardrobe but this means I'm going to have to clear it all out to make enough space for all the wedding stuff!

    Otherwise I'd say where you keep all your cleaning stuff, as I know my OH never looks in there either - but I wouldn't want to tar all men with the same brush!

    Shoes are just in a box in my wardrobe, but everything else is either in one of my bed-side drawers or at my Mum's.

    I have left my evening shoes at my mums with, the ring cushion tiara and veil. The only thing I have at home is my day shoes which I am trying to break in ? When I remember! Also I have his watch which is his wedding present this was in a carrier bag inside another the other day and he never looked in it once. But now it is in the bottom of my wardrobe, once I have sorted the engraving out for the box. It is being wrapped and taken to his mum's, or given to her when she is at ours. As she will be giving it to him once he is dressed on the wedding day.

    I am crap at hiding presents mind, do really well with small items. But at xmas, bought him a big boxed present. It needs to go in the house where? So left in boot of car, h2b went to put some shopping in to my car because I forgot it was there. Saw it as the bin bag had ripped covered it up and denyed seeing it till after xmas. Aah bless him. Should of gone to my Mum's!

    LOL!

    Like the idea of making it look completely normal so he doesn't even notice it .... or putting it in something of zero interest, like cleaning cupboard....

    Food for thought... ?

    I've not even tried to hide anything! Everything is in my cupboard in the bedroom and he could look at any time but I know he won't (unlike me who would turn the house upside down looking for stuff). I've got my veil, tiara, shoes and even had the bm dress hanging up for weeks!

    All of our wedding stuff is in my wardrobe and there's some stuff in the spare room. I've told H2B not to look and i trust him that he won't take a peek! If it's something general for the wedding i show him anyway, it's just the things like my dress, my jewellery, my shoes and veil etc that are hidden!

    All my wedding stuff is at my mums as I go there every day to see my little bro, h2b isn't a nosey person by nature but wouldn't want to give him the opportunity to have a look at my dress, garter, shoes etc.

    You could always hide the stuff in one of your suitcases.

    PG...were is your wedding dress?, do you keep that in the wardrobe too? ?
