Valentine Suggestions

Who doesn’t have problems thinking of something to give for Valentine’s Day? The Valentine market is saturated with things to buy, but not so many ways to share LOVE by acts!

I grew up with creative parents. My mother and father both showed their love throughout my sister’s and my childhood; well into our twenties.

My mother would create things and so would my father. They both had God-given talents for creativeness. Hardly ever did they run out of ideas.

As I sit here on the computer, something that takes way too much of my time, one good Valentine’s present I can think of off the top of my head would be to stay off the computer on Valentine’s Day. That would start things off well.

Then, another good suggestion would be to help wife by keeping or cleaning the house. But to make it all that more special, instead of doing the things I do on a normal day, like washing the dishes and putting my clothes away, I can do her jobs she normally does.

Just remember this. If you want to make the person you love feel special, then do something special for that person whether it a monetary gift or handmade. Be special for that special someone! Go the extra mile!

Now, I think that is a good Valentine Idea! What do you think?

Tradition is a word that can be applied to Valentine’s Day. Traditional colors such as pinks, reds, and whites are used. Traditional signs such as hearts, cupids, chocolates, balloons can be seen in every store. If tradition is not your style, try a few of these original ideas.

Conspire to plan a secret getaway. It doesn’t have to cost a lot of money, just make it special. How about a secret rooftop dinner? Or rent a small boat for the evening and sail around in a local lake or river with candles as your only light. Take a picnic basket (and bug spray just in case) to a secluded park or just inside a wooded area for a romantic picnic dinner for two.

Make your loved one a slideshow of pictures and/or home movies of the two of you together. Today’s computer programs are so common that you could do this with very little effort. There are also online sites that will help do this for you. Save it to a disc, print out a beautiful CD or DVD cover and voila! You have a thoughtful and personalized gift for the one you love.

Create a buffet of sweet treats for the two of you to choose from. If baking is not your thing, then visit a couple of different specialty bakeries that make unique treats and buy a couple of their desserts. If you have the means and can afford it, then a weekend getaway is always a good idea. Make reservations in advance to go to a bed and breakfast, and then surprise your loved one by pretending to “take a drive,” ultimately winding up at your destination.

For some, romance is receiving the latest trend, such as a great electronic or phone. Gifts like this, such as a camera, could be combined with an idea above to add to an overall Valentine’s Day gift. Special days are meant to be remembered. Make it special, no matter how costly or inexpensive it may be. It truly is the thought that counts.
