Valentine's Day is on the nose. We will not talk now about the need to show your love every day, not once a year, as well as about the expediency of this holiday or about who in a couple should think more about gifts and surprises. It's time to think about how to make this day interesting and memorable!

Romantic surprises

Idea 1. Handmade

Make a valentine with your own hands. This will be a great way to show that you think about your loved one, put your feelings into a gift. If the inscription in it is your own poem, even with a simple rhyme like "Sasha-Masha", all the same, these lines are important because they were invented by you!

Idea 2. Resourceful

Write any wishes on small, preferably beautifully designed cards. For example, "striptease", "breakfast in bed", "massage". Present these "coupons" to your boyfriend with the words that they give him the right to ask you to fulfill what is written on them.

Idea 3. Rewarding

Another original idea that does not require special financial investments. Try to think about how your loved one conquered you, and give him a certificate for this. For example, “the best husband / boyfriend”, “for the most amazing kisses”, “for the kindest and most attentive”, “for the most comfortable hugs” and the like. The main thing here is to emphasize what you value in it. If you are moved by the fact that he washes the dishes every evening, give him a certificate for this - you will see how pleased he will be that his work has been appreciated.

Idea 4. Memorable

Unfortunately, not every interesting event in your relationship has been captured in photographs. But you can independently make a photo album "Remember how …".

You buy a regular photo album, and instead of photographs you insert cards into it with texts starting with the words "Remember how …". One card - one memory. So you can describe all the significant events that happened to you.

Idea 5. Musical

If you sing, record a CD with your favorite songs in your performance and dedicate it to your boyfriend. If it will also be songs of your own composition, it will be great. You can also make a selection of romantic compositions, and in between them write down personal messages. They should include memories that are associated with the song, the feelings that the composition evokes or warm words for a loved one.

Idea 6. Director's Cut

All Windows computers have Movie Maker that lets you make movies. The program is quite easy to learn (unlike Powerpoint) and after digging in it for half an hour, you can create a video presentation. Easiest option: make a slideshow of your photos and add romantic music as a background.

Idea 7. Puzzling

Now in many printing centers (as well as photo centers that offer souvenirs like "your photo on a T-shirt") you can make a jigsaw puzzle with your romantic photo. Or, on top of some beautiful image, make an inscription about your love. You can also buy a ready-made puzzle, paint over it and make your own inscription on top.

Idea 8. Intellectual

Make a crossword puzzle of your relationship. Mysterious words can be, for example, affectionate nicknames, names, names of places, songs, months, and the like.

Idea 9. Sweeping

For several years of my communication with romantics, I found out that the first place in the produced effect is taken by the surprise “heart under the windows”. It can be laid out, for example, with candles (at night) or painted with paint (spray) on the snow. He will definitely never forget this!

Idea 10. Postage

When you give a letter or a valentine, put something unexpected in the envelope, for example, a feather (you can beat it like a feather from an angel), a key (from your heart), a dried flower, a beautiful scarf with the scent of your perfume.

Create a mood

Idea 11. Dance

Almost every couple has their own favorite song that brings back the most romantic memories. Be sure to turn it on this evening. You can invite him to dance.

Idea 12. Relaxing

Climb into the hot tub together. In addition to foam or "bombs", you can drip aromatic oil into the water. An atmosphere of tenderness and sensuality is created by the aromas of rose, patchouli, sandalwood, ylang-ylang. Bathing together goes well with the next two items.

Idea 13. Fiery

The magical candlelight creates the feeling of a fairy tale. Arrange them in advance in the room where you will communicate, and then turn on and off the light.

Idea 14. Sparkling

We associate champagne with a bright holiday and the embodiment of desires. Why not please your loved one and prepare a bottle yourself? Surely he will forget about this important little thing.

Idea 15. Mysterious

Take an antifog (the liquid that motorists use to wipe the windows so that they don't fog up), soak a cotton swab with it, and write a message to your beloved on the bathroom mirror. This message will mysteriously manifest when he is in the soul.

Idea 16. Air

If you want to make the holiday fun, give him balloons filled with helium. You can pre-place notes and romantic coupons in them. Pop a ball - find a gift.

Idea 17. Adventure

Men love riddles and adventures. Arrange a romantic quest for him, in the end of which he will find your gift. First you ask a riddle. The answer may indicate where to look for some little surprise and with it the next clue. And so, along the chain, it comes to your main gift. You can arrange such a "hunt" within the apartment, or it is possible within the district or even the city. As a riddle, for example, a piece of a photograph (“where was that?”), And a textual description of the place (“what happened to us there?”) Or a riddle about your relationship.

Idea 18. Blinking

Hang a garland with blinking heart-shaped lights on a window or wall.

Idea 19. Camping

If your loved one does not know where you would like to get out or is lazy, take the initiative into your own hands. It's time to invite him to the skating rink, to the cinema, to a restaurant or to a disco. Romantic surprises will strengthen your relationship and make this day unforgettable.
