15 Valentine's Day Ideas

• Make special dinner at home

  Instead of going out for dinner the couple can stay at home and just be together. They can enjoy a special candle-light dinner together. A very special dish really loved by him/her will surely make the loved one very happy and the occasion memorable. Eating at home always works out cheap even if the most expensive dish is prepared which if eaten outside in a restaurant can cost an exorbitant amount.

• Gift a wristwatch

  Presenting a wristwatch will make the day for him/her. It should be beautiful for the lady and heavy and manly-looking for the man. Two look-alike watches are also available and make an ideal gift, one for her and a larger version of the same for him. This really binds the two lovers; people can also observe their love by just observing the look-alike watches worn by the two.

• Gift her Jewelry and Cosmetics

  These are more applicable to the lady. A woman is synonymous with cosmetics and jewelry. There is nothing more a woman likes than looking attractive with some good jewelry and cosmetics on her. The man should know the likings of his lady love about the type of jewelry and the cosmetics that suit her. The presents should not be of a cheap quality as cheap quality may put her off and destroy the festive mood of the day. Also, it should be known that cheap cosmetics are harmful to the skin. The gifts can be put in a decorative box with a neatly tied colorful bow and a card on it which says. 'I Love You'.

• Gift a photo book

  Photos of the two together captured and compiled into a book will immortalize their relationship and keep it aglow with love all the year round whenever she/he looks into it. It should not look like a photo album; instead it should be a specially made photo book. Photos of times spent together in the years and the days gone by stimulate the lover's memory and make him/her to love their partner more. For a married couple, this binds the marriage more strongly which has positive effects on the children. It has long term good effects on the family as a whole. It can be presented with a lovely big bow around it, neatly tied and a picture of the two placed snugly under the bow.

• Buy a gift in person

  The couple can visit a shopping mall and look up items to buy for each other. The item can be something that is much needed by the loved one or something which she/he wanted since long but either could not afford to buy or did not get time to buy it. Buying a gift in person is preferable when one does not know what to gift to his/her love. It can also excite the partner then and there on the purchase of the gift.

• Send the loved one a personalized greeting card

  For those who are away and cannot be together on Valentine’s Day, a greeting card with special words is a must to make the loved one far away feel wanted and loved. A hand-made romantic card expressing the deepest love for him/her through thoughtful words or a poem written in it will be a great idea. Sending a greeting card by snail mail can take long so one must make arrangements to send the card well in time so as to reach him/her on Valentine's Day.

• Phone calls

  It goes without saying that a phone call makes a world of a difference on a Valentine’s Day for a loved one staying far away and unable to come to celebrate it together. One should spend ample time talking, not keeping account of the money spent on it. Also, one must choose a time and location when one has freedom to express and sufficient time to talk. Both should be available to substantially talk to each other.

• Send a special parcel

  If it is possible, sending a parcel containing items that are of the loved one’s interest will fill him/her with excitement and convey the love and concern for him/her.
