How do you set it up without him noticing?
Give him a reason to leave: a decoy errand or a friend who takes him out. Keep the balloons pre-inflated in a bag or another room. Never leave real candles burning unattended; LED ones are safer. In a flat, check with the building first if you plan a midnight entry. Or surprise him somewhere else: car dikki decoration needs only the boot of his own car.
15-minute version:
- Scatter balloons on the bed and floor.
- Drape 1 fairy light string on the headboard.
- Place 6 LED candles on the bedside.
- Write “HBD” in rose petals on the pillow. Turn off main lights before he enters.
