Great ideas for Valentine's Day


I am such a sucker for Valentine's Day- I just LOVE it! As I do all holidays but Valentine's Day is so fun and it's so easy, pinks, reds and hearts-the possibilites are endless. I love the balloons, the flowers, the stuffed animals, cards, and decorations...it really is such a sweet holiday. I was lucky enough to run a flower shop for three years and I always had the best time at V-Day, I got to order all the chocolates, gifts, candles, plush, cards-it was wonderful to work in an industry the caters to Holidays-I was definitely in my element. I love love and all the ways to express it. I always miss working at a flower shop especially around this time of year! 

I hope you all have a wonderful day, whether or not you have a 'love' there is so much you could do to celebrate. I personally do not like the idea of jewelry or expensive gifts like that- I think it's just a good time for all the cheesy, heart shaped, over the top stuff-it's nice to indulge in these things at least once a year. I love to make the most of everything including the holidays so here are some lovely ideas to make someone smile on Valentine's Day.

  2. Aww, how sweet! Love the pics:-) Am not really in to Valentine's day, but that could be because i have never really got anything! However i have to confess, i told my partner i wanted thorntons chocs for valentine's day. When putting some socks in his sock drawer the other day i came across some, so maybe he actually has decided to get me some. He usually says he doesn't believe in it and doesn't get me anything, but maybe if i keep telling him what i want i will actually get stuff for Valentine's day!

    I haven't told him that i found them, am just hoping they were for me!!

    Enjoy your Valentine's day! Does Joel do anything for you, or you for him?

  3. I hope Ste bought those chocolates for you! That's sweet if so! This year I just got Joel card from Zeeva...I am under the impression that I have a surprise coming tomorrow-I am very excited and hope it's something totally ridiculous!!! I think Valentine's Day is probably more for us ladies (and kids) and men should acknowledge that! My girlfriend said her boyfriend told her that "he is not going to let a holiday dictate his actions" LOL!!!

    1. Ste always claims he is not going to let a holiday tell him what to do, but i think that's an excuse to get him out of getting me anything. When we had first started going out he got me flowers for Valentine's day but bought them a week early for me when they were cheaper!! I should have learnt! Totally agree, Valentine's day is more for us ladies and i would like something:-) Hope Joel does something for you.x
