Everybody has heard of the twelve days of Christmas. Why not the twelve days of Valentines day?
Be creative. Do something really special for your sweetie this Valentines day. I am going to do the 12 Days of Valentines. Starting 11 days before Valentines day, I will leave little gifts for my Valentine to find.
I have done this before only at Christmas time. By the end of the fifth day, she couldn’t wait to see what was next. The anticipation was almost more exciting than the actual gifts.
Are really looking to amaze her, start on day one and go through the list I suggest or get creative. Create you own list with your own flair.
Day 1 – One balloon that says “I Love You”
Day 2 – Two tickets to a movie
Day 3 – Three love songs, some taped and some written words, that mean something special to her. If you can sing give it a shot.
Day 4 – Four love poems, hand write them. Tape one to the bathroom mirror, hang one from the car steering wheel, hide one in her purse last one goes on her pillow.
Day 5 – Five green m&ms, then you can share the rest of the bag :O)
Day 6 – Six chocolate candy hearts
Day 7 – Seven assorted flowers. (white, red, pink, purple, green, blue an orange) She knows what all the colors mean.
Day 8 – Eight heart shaped cookies, bake them your self!!!
Day 9 – Nine message heart candies
Day 10 – Ten “I love of cards”, write a short note in each
Day 11 – Eleven Hershey’s hugs and kisses
Day 12 Valentine’s Day!!! – say “I Love You” in twelve different languages.
I don’t know, what do you think, I am still trying to figure out if I want to leave them in the same spot to be found at the same time every day, or if I want it to be more random.
Planning an endeavor like this is a lot of fun and doesn’t cost a bunch. Are you the more extravagant type? Then really give her some nice stuff. Try a necklace, clothes or maybe a ring for starters. A day of beauty is always nice and make sure you schedule lunch with her that day. Ask me how I learned that one.
What you will find is that after the first two or three days, your project will really not about the amount of money spent but how well you know her. She will just be thrilled with the attention once she figures out this is all for her. So fore me, I am really looking forward to the lead up to Valentines Day.
