9 Gift Ideas for Valentine's Day | News Article

“It’s one thing to fall in love. It’s another to feel someone else fall in love with you, and to feel a responsibility toward that love.”

So the big day to surprise your significant other with something amazing is around the corner. A bunch of roses perhaps? Boring (and super expensive)!
 
Popping the big "will you marry me", or spending big on an international trip will probably outweigh these ideas, but at least you won't have to worry repaying your already exhausted credit card.
 
1. Make a set of pre-planned dates (via thinkingcloset
 
 
 
2.  Write 52 things you love about your significant other, place them in a mason jar, and then let them open one each week. Also check out Craftaholics Anonymous for even more jar ideas.
 
 
 
This is also very cool!
 
 
 
3. Do whatever you feel like, but add having a sense of humour. Via hubpages
 
 
 
Did we mention that humour is important? It takes 15 minutes to make a first impression on a man, and 60 minutes for women.

5. Get creative with food – pack him something for work. Errm, remember to use an edible marker. Poisoning someone on Valentine's Day will just make it awkward for everyone. Via CakeWizz
 
 
 
6. Make some lovely body scrub for the two of you. Hubba hubba! Put 1.5 cups of plain white sugar, 1/4 cup of baby oil, 12 rose petals in a food processor and blend till you’re happy. Put it in a pretty jar. Via Smart School House.
 
 
 
7. Do something different!
 
 
 
 
 
8. Make something instead of buying it.
 
9. If you're single and reading this... time to find a date!
