CREATIVE WAYS TO GIVE YOUR MAN A MEMORABLE VALENTINE TREAT

Your guy may not expect to be wined and dined or have a dozen red roses delivered directly to his desk on Valentine’s Day, but that doesn’t mean you can’t show him you care!

Surprise your sweetie with a sentimental gift that won’t cost you a thing, or rekindle the romance with something a bit sexier, like boudoir photos of you.

Its Valentine’s Day, the day in which love, and romance is hot on everyone’s minds. We all know that we should show our partners how much we love and appreciate them each day, but Valentine’s Day is the perfect day to pull out all the stops and declare it in a creative and special way.

START EARLY

Treat your valentine to breakfast in bed! Be creative and cut some pancakes into hearts, adding strawberries or perhaps other pretty fruits to add some color. 

GET CREATIVE ON PAPER 

With texting and email as popular as they are, couples seem to have forgotten about the good old love letter. Write down all your feelings onto paper and tell your partner exactly what they mean to you, what they bring to your life, and what you admire about them. Even mention your favorite shared memories or inside jokes and unlike emails and
texts your letter can be treasured and becomes an instant keepsake. 

TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE!

If you’re feeling adventurous pack up a picnic bag and take a long evening drive with your lover, visit all the places where you have memories together for a sweet night of reminiscing!

DATE NIGHT

Treat your sweetheart to a hot bath and a massage to start off a passionate evening. If you’re a true romantic, place candles around the bathroom and bedroom to create a romantic ambiance, use lots of bubble baths and massage oils, grab a bottle of bubbly and Take out your oven gloves and cook your valentine a romantic meal! Decorate the table with candles and roses to set the atmosphere (or get the fire roaring to make it extra cozy) and create a wonderful meal of all your partners’ favorite foods as a special treat. You could even cook the meal together or cook one course each and then create the dessert together you could even add rose petals to make it a simply unforgettable night. If the packed-out cinema isn’t your idea of a romantic night, then give it a miss and recreate a movie theater at home! Put on a romantic film and snuggle up together in bed. 

HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW YOUR VAL?
Put together a gift hamper of all your partners favorite things including their favorite chocolates, bottle of wine or beer, their favorite DVD or music or even flowers; because after all it is the little details that matter.
