Hearts and Flowers

Hello darlings, are you still pondering what token of love to give your significant other?

The traditional gifts are so expected, candy, flowers, cards and a special dinner, let’s step out of the box this year and really bring a big smile and kisses from the love of your life.

First, stop and think about what things are really enjoyed and wanted by Her/Him.

Girls, give thought to how  sporting events, concerts, car  shows, boating, camping,  hiking, clothes , reading, cooking and just any passion makes him light up like the sun .

For the sports, concerts and any event that requires tickets in advance, give the man tickets!!!! The special event may be months away from Valentine’s Day, but he will be in great anticipation thinking of what a very special woman he has to give him such a gift.   And lovelies, we know the benefits of being thought of as “Special”

Camping equipment, such as an air conditioner and heating apparatus, will provide hours of being cool in the summer and toasty in the winter.  The rugged camper has much hunting to do or hiking, so returning to a comfortable tent will wow him time after time.  A new cast iron skillet for the open fire cooking, latest type of lantern, luxury sleeping bag or a selection of non-perishable foods will really be a surprise!!

Hiking boots, socks, backpack, compass, poncho for an unexpected rain shower, or new camera, flashlight or even a walking staff will be perfect for the hiking guy.

The GQ man will love the latest trend in clothes. Buy a copy and research the styles for him, shoes, belts, shirts, sweaters , jackets, jeans, trousers, blazers , tie width , suits and place pictures from the magazine in the gift box so he will know the  trendy way of combining the clothes or accessory .

Classic gentlemen would appreciate cuff links with both of your initials engraved (A & B) or a money clip, tie clasp and ring with the family crest or initials engraved.  Golfers and fishermen will treasure any type of equipment that is useful for their passion of the sport.

A great chef always welcomes a new piece of equipment, even a new masculine apron or chef’s knives.

Try these ideas and just watch the reaction!!

Guy’s, a secret to success with a woman is determining what means love to her.  Flowers for a woman that is really into jewelry might not be the most appreciated choice. Pay close attention to what she really wears and likes.  Some are into rings, some bracelets. necklaces,  ear rings  or perhaps a special charm  she collects for her bracelet.  Be sure to find out what piece really means love to her, because if you give her ear rings and she is a bracelet girl that does not have the same meaning as her passion. Rings and bracelets make me dance with delight and feel so special and loved.   Your gal will respond with the same, if the correct jewelry chosen.   Now do not panic about the price, I have an answer to calm your nerves.

The home shopping networks have beautiful JEWELRY for $ 29.00 and up to what the budget may afford.

Jewelry Television is great for a smaller budget, QVC and other home shopping shows have the upscale designers.

If perfume is the love of your lady, find out her favorite fragrance, go to a Fragrance Outlet and ask them what flower or spice is the matrix for her favorite. They have a chart that gives the ingredients for each perfume or cologne.   Call the Fragrance Outlet and ask for the price and information, colognes are less expensive than perfume, for your information.  Along with the fragrance, give her one flower that is the most important to create her signature scent.   Tell her she is as beautiful as the flower. Awwww, she will love that. I suggested a Fragrance Outlet as it really cuts the cost of fragrances and are exactly like the ones in department stores. They will have the fragrance ready for pick up or mail it.

If a budget is no problem, furs are on sale now and one may really get a great buy. But not if she objects to wearing fur.   If she is a fashionista that adores fur, she will dance with delight and you will be her hero!

Enjoy Valentine’s Day and may the rest of your life be filled with true and lasting love.
