Light Up Her/His Night With Stickers On Valentine’s Day

Here's a neat idea to supplement your gift to your Valentine on Valentine's day.  Light up I LOVE YOU on your ceiling.

Simply buy some Glow in The Dark Stickers.  You know the ones that you probably used to have as a kid or that you're children currently have.  They usually come in the form of stars.

Take them and place them on your roof spelling I LOVE YOU on the roof of your bedroom.

That night you can have a romantic evening, obviously not telling her about the stickers.  Then when she goes to bed and looks at the ceiling she'll see you love message.   It'll make a very nice present and she'll probably thank you right there and then!

You can buy the Glow in the Dark Stars at Hamleys.

Romantic Valentine’s Idea – Post A Love Letter To Her

A nice Valentine's idea for your loved one is to mail him/her a love letter at their office or home.   You simply get a nice piece of paper and HAND write a love letter, poem or whatever you want on the paper.

Then head to the post office to mail the letter. Be sure that you will be posting the letter so that it arrives ON valentine's day.  You'll probably have to pay a bit extra for it but that'd be bad if it showed up early or late.

Why is posting a letter romantic?

There are a few reasons why this is romantic.  First it shows that you've been thinking about her/him and have planned far enough in advance to have the letter arrive on Valentine's day.  Second, the letter will arrive completely unannounced.  You can either make the outside of the letter show that it's a love letter from you OR you can just make seem like a plain letter so the surprise is on the inside.  Finally, what you include in the letter is romantic.

What to include in the letter?

The letter should come from the heart.  Anything that tells her exactly how you feel about her is a good start.  If you aren't good at writing or can't come up with something then search online for a romantic poem. Then hand write the poem out (putting the author's name at the bottom) then write something along the lines of "My words can't express the way I feel for you but this poem does..."

Cost:

£ 1.00 - Nice Paper
£ 1.50 - Postage Fees

Stay In For Chocolate Fountain Night

A great idea for Valentine's day that won't blow your budget is to make a Chocolate Fountain Night. A chocolate fountain is basically a three-dimensional chocolate fondue. For a Chocolate Fountain Night you'll need a chocolate fountain, high quality chocolate and fruit.

You'll need to buy the following things:

A Chocolate Fountain - Home Chocolate Fountains range in size up to about 19" tall. They are primarily made of plastic and may have some stainless steel components (although all-stainless models do exist) and are usually dishwasher safe. Home chocolate fountains normally hold 6 or less pounds of chocolate.

Chocolate - It is imperative that you buy Couverture Chocolate to get the correct flow of the chocolate. Most chocolate fountains will come with a pack of the specialty chocolate or the chocolate shop will recommend the correct chocolate for your fountain.

Recommended Chocolatiers: zChocolat or Chocolate Trading Company

Fruit - The fruit you want to create an assortment of fruit cut into approximately 2-3 cm cubes. Some good fruit to consider is Strawberries, Banana's, Kiwi's and Oranges.

Now you simply cut up the fruit the day before and follow the instructions on the chocolate fountain to make your chocolate flow!

Cost:
Chocolate Fountain: £ 49.95
Chocolate: £ 8.5
Fruit: £ 10 (approximately)

Total Cost: £ 68.95

How To Make A Good Personalized Valentine’s Gift

Personalized Presents: Why and how to make a good personalized gift

Providing your loved one with a gift that you make, or personalize, will show the effort and care you took to providing her (or him) with something from your heart. Don't try to extend yourself too far, instead focus on gifts that you can reasonably personalize on your own and focus on your particular skill set.

For example, if you're a musician then consider writing and performing a song for your loved one, while those who are prolific writers should consider writing a poem or short story as a romantic gesture. No matter what your particular set of skills might be, you can apply your talents to craft the perfect gift that she is sure to remember for years to come.

Steps to Make a Good Gift

To start take stock of what your loved one truly enjoys, as well as her professional aspirations. Once you have written down a list of her favorite activities, think of a gift that you can create to supplement the activity and improve her daily life. For example, if she is an avid home chef, then consider making a personalized recipe book that she can fill out with her own ideas – this will be a book that she completes on a regular basis, and will continue to think about you with every use.

Another fun personalized gift tip is to make a gift of the memories that you two share: you can take a memorable photograph of the two of you and create a jigsaw puzzle based upon the experience, which you can then assemble together – this will allow you to share memories of events past and reminisce about the future. This can be done at GettingPersonal.co.uk

You can take this idea a step further by creating a personalized photo album, which you can create by hand, with unique designs and commentary that will show her that you truly put a lot of thought into the present. If you're giving a gift of jewelry, consider a keepsake necklace that features a picture of you two to make the gift more meaningful. Again at GettingPersonal.co.uk.

Whatever you decided to do be sure that you take her considerations into mind, your skills into mind and a way to join those two things to create something magical.

Gift baskets can be a great way to give a number of presents in a single format, including indulgences which she can continue to appreciate long after the holiday has ended. Many lifestyle sellers offer a wellness and beauty gift basket which will provide a variety of beauty products that she can enjoy every day, which will keep her thinking about your kindness throughout the year.

Another great lasting, romantic gift is to send a variety box of chocolates, including imported dark chocolate truffles which she can savor over the coming weeks. Truffles come in a wide variety of flavors and recipes, so they contain a diversify of treats within a single box. Make sure you attach a personalized note to the gift, explaining why you selected this particular treat, along with a note of your affection for her.

Always take into account your loved one's favorites, as you'll want to select a gift that suits her particularly well and make sure that you make an extra effort to get her a unique present that she is soon to remember. Try to supplement the gift with a creation from your own heart, such as a home-cooked meal or a personalized weekend vacation (Red Letter Days) that you both can share and enjoy.

Whatever you end up choosing make sure that you take one thing into consideration: HER or HIM. The more thought you put into what he/she would want the better the gift will be and the more likely they will like the gift.

Deliver Flowers To The Office

Valentine's day is a perfect day for flower delivery.  If you can't get XX then be sure to send something to the office.

I've had lots of guys tell me, "I'm having dinner tonight, I have something special already do I really have to buy flowers for the office?"

The answer.  Absolutely. Most ladies who work in an office will chat about it being Valentine's day.  Some will have plans others won't.  It's almost inevitable that one of the ladies will have something delivered to them at the office. Although she may not say it your lady will most likely become jealous of the fact that someone else's husband or boyfriend sent a gift.

Don't let her put any doubt in her mind.   Get something delivered.

Tips on what to get delivered.

Flower: Flowers are great because they remind her of you and is a great way to brighten up her day.

Suggested Florist: Flying Flowers (Free UK Delivery)

Chocolates: Chocolates are great because she can share the chocolates with the whole office. Thus making the other ladies in the office jealous!

Suggested Chocolatier:Chocolate Trading Company

Make sure to get the company to write a little note saying how much you love her and look forward to seeing her that night.  This is extremely important and can be just as important as the flowers or chocolates themselves!

Either way.  Get something delivered to her office

Romantic Gift Ideas – Deliver YOURSELF To The Office

Surprise her at work .... delivered by you!

Items Needed:  Balloons, Flowers and Chocolates

Suggested Retailers: Bizzy Balloons, Clare Florist and Chocolate Trading Company

You simply get a nice bouquet of flowers, chocolates and balloons.  During her normal work hours just 'pop by' for a quick little visit. Yes, there are a few more details to it then that but the idea is instead of getting a delivery person to bring the items YOU bring them to her.

If she has a secretary book an appointment for a meeting.  If she works as at a restaurant reserve a table in her section under a moniker. Remember that you don't want to stress her out by stopping by at work.  If she's busy be sure to take a minute or two out of her day to say hi and drop off the stuff.  Do your best to creatively book 15 minutes out of her day to chat with you.   Possibly set a lunch date even.

Tips on selecting the flowers and balloons.

Ideally you'd like a large bouquet of flowers and/or a few balloons.  The idea being you'd like to be hidden behind the flowers and balloons so that when you show up she's wondering who the lucky girl is.
