So you are kinda broke and feel bad you cannot impress or make your partner feel special? Can’t buy expensive gifts but do have a big heart and a creative mind? Then use it you chucklehead!
Here is how-
Single roses:
How lucky you are that a single rose is a sign of love! Single roses are considered extremely romantic. Get them one and see how nice they feel to know you care. You could also quietly tuck one inside their bags with a note saying something sweet like “To the rosiest person alive!” or “I just wanted you to smile!” or something nice and sweet
Hand made cards:
Surveys reveal that most people prefer a hand-made card from their lovers to an Archie’s card. This is because a hand made card shows the sincere effort put into making the card. They are a great way of portraying your love to your sweetheart since it adds a personal touch to the card.
Tip: Use lots of colors and glitter to make your card as vibrant and vivid as possible.
Fun with photos:
Pick up a cute and memorable photo of the two of you snuggling together. Go to photo shop or photo editor on your computer and add cute little things to it like put an angelic halo above your head and two devil’s horns on theirs. You can also scatter a couple of hearts to your picture and make it extra mushy. Also, try adding text like “You are the best” or the classic “I love you” over your photo. Just do something fun, creative, unique & interesting which they would be delighted to see. Then frame your cool new photo and gift it to them with a big bright sunshine smile! 😀
Make your own frames:
You can also add an extra personal touch to your photo by making your very own photo-frame! Remember how in kindergarten they taught you to make frames out of pencils, ice-cream sticks and cardboard? Well, neither do I…
However, it would be nice if you made it, rite?
Write a poem:
If you have that creative bone in you, you can surely write a neat poem. It need not be perfect and need not necessarily even rhyme! Easy now, isn’t it? Even if it ends up being a lame one, your significant other will surely appreciate your effort… And for all you know, you might just discover the great hidden poet in you! Worth a try!
Make a mix song CD / tape:
This is the easiest thing you can do! Just pick up your sweetheart’s favorite songs and burn it into a CD… You can also get more creative and record a personal message in your voice before every song starts. Give reasons why you chose this particular song or what memory does this particular song evokes…
Cook!
The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach! Now, if you can cook, you certainly will not miss this chance will you. Make him/her a nice home-cooked meal and show off your culinary skills. You can also turn out the lights, light candles and create the perfect ambiance. If it is baking, that is your special skill, and then who doesn’t love a box full of chocolate-chip cookies! This could earn you some serious brownie points!
Get then a jump rope:
Gifting them a jump rope will evoke your lover’s childhood memories and this could also be an inexpensive way to help them keep fit!
You can come up with your very own cute little gifts. Remember it is the thought that counts!
So go on, happy gifting!
