How do I love thee? Let me count the ways – here are 10 unique St Valentine’s Day ideas that will impress your ‘better half’.
Write an old fashioned love letter. Everyone likes to hear why they are adored and admired. Take some time and think about why you are crazy for him/her. Don’t forget to seal it with a kiss.
Play a scavenger game with your honey and take him/her to hunt for the clues. You can place the questions on cards somewhere around the house or your area. The last item on the list should lead to a romantic dinner or destination.
If you both have a busy day, have a gift and flowers delivered to her at home or at the office. Surprises are always nice and show that you are thinking of her.
Bake heart-shaped cookies and construct your own ‘conversational hearts’ and use whatever saying you like. Example ‘True Love’, ‘Handsome’ or ‘Crazy 4U’. l Surprise your Valentine with a getaway. If you cannot afford the time for a full weekend away, make reservations at a local hotel and make sure it includes breakfast. If you have children, arrange for childcare and surprise him/her after work.
Fill a jar with chocolate kisses and notes for future use: Good for one movie out, 10 kisses, one backrub etc. Also make notes tied with ribbon on why you adore him/her.
Make Valentine presents from things around the house, for example, use an old key with a string and heart attached that reads: ‘You have the key to my heart’, a toy car ‘You make my heart race’, playing cards ‘You are the queen/king of my heart’, socks ‘We make a fine pair’. Be creative with this one.
Give your woman a dozen roses. On each stem write a little comment about why you love her.
