Creative and imaginative Valentine’s Day gifts
This year, be a little more original than the traditional flowers and chocolates and try one of the following ideas. Traditional Valentine’s Day gifts are fine when you’re short on time and need a quick solution. But why not take some time this year to plan and think a little outside the box? Push boring Valentine’s Day gifts aside for emergencies only and go for original, interesting ideas instead, so that this Valentine’s Day is truly special – thanks to the gift as well.
How about giving your special someone a once-in-a-lifetime experience this year?
Here are a few ideas to help you choose something that suits your partner.
- A hot-air balloon ride
- A cooking or dance class
- A gourmet experience at a well-known restaurant
- A trip to a botanical garden
- Rafting on the Soča river
- A visit to wine cellars
- Tickets to a concert or sporting event
Fun Valentine’s Day gifts
Valentine’s Day gifts don’t always have to be romantic. If you don’t take the day of love too seriously, your Valentine’s Day gifts don’t need to be serious either. It’s best to choose something you often joke about together. The theme could be, for example, your favourite TV series or film. That way the Valentine’s Day gift is something different from the usual – and something you both genuinely enjoy.
A romantic Valentine’s Day gift idea
This year you can outdo every Valentine’s Day gift so far and give your special someone a personalised necklace with an inscription of your choice. You can come up with the wording yourself (it can simply be a name), and here are a few more ideas from us:
- I love you
- Mine <3
- Forever
- My love
- Your anniversary date
- The pet name you usually call each other
Get creative and make something yourself
Valentine’s Day gifts don’t have to be something you buy – there’s a very special charm in gifts you make yourself. Our idea doesn’t take long but leaves a big impression. You’ll need a picture frame, a sheet of thick paper, a marker and a cut-out piece of a map (you can also print one and trim it). On the white paper, write your names, a personal message or anything else you like – that’s exactly the charm of a homemade Valentine’s Day gift. Then cut out, in the shape of a heart, the place on the map where you first met, first kissed or got married. The choice is yours.
A romantic evening – at home
Original Valentine’s Day gifts don’t have to be physical things, so don’t worry if you’re running out of time and still can’t think of what to give this year. You can create an unforgettable evening in the comfort of your own home. Cook something together – find a really good recipe and buy all the ingredients you need. Don’t forget the champagne or any other drink you both enjoy, and light some candles for a lovely atmosphere. You can round off the evening with a good film or whatever else you fancy.
