How to Have the Perfect Valentine's Day
From Find Me A Gift
How to Have the Perfect Valentine's Day<br><br>Valentine's Day is about showing your loved one how much they mean to you. However these days it's all too easy to get caught up in all the commercial hype and ensuing furore of heart shaped gifts that goes with it. Naturally the shops do love to wheel out the Valentines Day gifts on the run up to February 14th, in fact you can't go anywhere without tripping up on a red rose or cute 'I Love You' teddy bear. But you don't have to spend a fortune on hearts and flowers to make the day special. For most couples it's more about how you spend the day, and the thought you actually put into it that really matters.<br>http://www.find-me-a-gift.co.uk/valentines-day-gifts/ <br>How to have the perfect Valentine's Day is different for everyone. Knowing what your other half likes and dislikes is half the battle, because let's face it, not knowing is not exactly going to earn you any heart shaped brownie points. You can pick up pointers for Valentines gifts throughout the year simply by listening to each other when out and about, be it shopping or in a restaurant or even watching TV. Of course choosing the right gift is important, but by filling the whole day with all sorts of romantic gestures can make it truly special.<br>Why not plan to spend the whole day with your Valentine? If it can't be on the day itself then put aside a weekend or a day when you can be alone together. You could go for a short break or how about using the following for inspiration.....<br>Surprising your loved one with breakfast in bed may sound clichéd but waking up to a tray of delights made lovingly by your partner, be it husband, wife, fiancé, boyfriend or girlfriend can really put a smile on your face. It's a great way to start the day, even if it's just a slice of toast and a cup of coffee. Which by the way you can add a Valentine touch to by simply cutting or shaping your slices of bread, pancakes or eggs into cute hearts! But what could you plan for the rest of the day? Well, February is not known for being too warm, so therefore it provides you with the perfect excuse to wrap up in each other's company. How about a nice romantic stroll? Go to a park, or take a trip to the coast, if it's not too far? You can hold hands or put your arms around each other as you go for a walk, be it through a wood, by a lake, through a town or just down your local road and back! If you plan your route carefully you could also stop off at a country pub for lunch or a little bistro or quaint coffee shop.<br>http://www.find-me-a-gift.co.uk/valentines-gifts/valentines-presents.asp <br>Or maybe you'd prefer to stay indoors and cuddle up on the sofa? Just remember that spending quality time with the love of your life doesn't have to actually cost anything, except time and imagination. You can cosy up and watch some romantic movies or play board games, or guess what...even chat! Why not end the day with a romantic meal. You could go to a restaurant, or simply cook up a storm in the kitchen together at home. Get out the cookbooks and get creative together and who knows cooking together could become your new shared passion! Then simply get out the candles, sprinkle some rose petals around, dim the lights and tuck in. <br>Valentine's Day is about showing the person who has captured your heart how much they mean to you. This can be done by focusing all your attention on them and showering them with affection and not just expensive gifts. Make your partner feel special and totally adored by you, because as they say, 'actions do speak louder than words'. So by doing simple things such as making them breakfast in bed, tracking down a particular book or CD that they have been after for ages, leaving little love notes around the house for them to find or running them a bubble bath are all ways to show how much you care about them. So whilst you could go and spend an absolute fortune on fine dining or buy up an entire florist shop, you could also pick (or buy) them their favourite flower or make a meal with your own fair hands. By putting in the thought and effort is what can make Valentine's Day for you and your partner perfect. Oh and of course, don't forget to tell them how much you love them too.<br><br>Regards, Jesse James<br><br>...cause giving always feels good
