10 Valentine Gifts Women Love
10 Valentine Gifts Women Love!

By William Smith

Finding the perfect Valentine gift for the woman in your life can be a daunting task.  To help you out, we've searched the internet to find our top 10 picks for Valentine's Day.  From flowers to jewelry to a romantic weekend at a bed & breakfast, you can simply surf the internet to buy or find all the information you need to make this a perfect Valentine's Day for the woman you love.

1)  Fresh Flowers - Flowers are still the most popular gift at Valentine's Day.  Of course, it is also the most expensive time of the year to buy flowers, particularly roses.  Still, flowers remain a classic option and one that is always well received.  Try a local florist for guaranteed delivery, or one of the many online retailers if you will be apart this Valentine's Day.

2)  Chocolate - Chocolate is a close second to flowers, and for good reason.  Many women crave chocolate, and Godiva (  rel=nofollow http://www.godiva.com) is the ultimate indulgence.  When in doubt, buy a variety chocolate gift pack that will allow her to sample a different treat each time.  She'll enjoy the mystery of what's inside each tasty treat, and be dreaming about the next one.

3)  Perfume - Think of perfume as "flowers in a bottle."  A pleasing smell is a powerful aphrodisiac, and a carefully selected scent will make her feel special.  Perfume is also nice because the gift lives on for several months, and she'll think of you each time she sprays on your wonderful gift.  Ask your female friends what scents are popular this year, or sneak a peek in her magazines to see what perfumes are being advertised.

4)  Spa/Massage Gift Certificate - For a truly memorable experience, give her a trip to the spa.  Woman love to feel pampered and a massage or spa treatment is a Valentine gift that will relax and elevate her mood.

5)  Romantic Dinner At Home - If your wife or girlfriend normally does all the cooking, surprise her with a home-cooked meal.  If you're new to the kitchen, don't try anything too ambitious.  Pick some of her favorite foods and find some easy recipes to make.  Don't worry if your meal isn't perfect, because for this gift the old adage, "it's the thought that counts," is definitely true.

6)  Jewelry - Women love jewelry, especially when it's received as a gift on a special occasion.  Price is always a factor, but also consider getting something personal (e.g., a dolphin pendant for the ocean lover) or personalized (with your names and date) to make sure this Valentine gift is unforgettable.

7)  Teddy Bear (  rel=nofollow http://www.vermonteddybear.com) - Nothing says cute and cuddly like a teddy bear.  The teddy bear has changed a lot since you had one as a kid.  Now, there are many different styles, varieties, and colors.  Find one just right and she'll thank you for your thoughtfulness.

8)  Bouquet Of Heart Shaped Cookies (  rel=nofollow http://www.gourmet-cookie-bouquets.com) - Cookies are always a "sweet" gift, and heart-shaped gourmet cookies make a great Valentine gift.  Personalize the cookies with your own special message to let her know how you feel.

9)  Chocolate Covered Strawberries (  rel=nofollow http://www.aagiftsandbaskets.com) - Strawberries are the perfect Valentine's Day fruit - red, heart-shaped and sweet.  We already know how women feel about chocolate, so combine the two and you've got an unforgettable Valentine's Day gift.  Chocolate covered strawberries are normally shipped via overnight air for maximum freshness, so these delectable treats also make a great gift for the procrastinator.

10)  Romantic Weekend Get-Away - Nothing rekindles romance like a little time away from it all with your Valentine.  For a truly romantic weekend, try a bed-and-breakfast someplace special (  rel=nofollow http://www.bnbfinder.com to find a bed & breakfast).  Many bed and breakfasts offer Valentine's Day or romance packages, so it's best to reserve this date far in advance.  If you can't get away during Valentine's Day, you can always make the reservation by February 14 and give her a special card telling her about your future romantic escape.

Valentine's Day gifts can be difficult, but with a little planning and insight in your wife or girlfriend's preferences, you can find her a memorable gift this year.  You could even chose a different Valentine gift from this list and be covered for the next 10 years!

Valentine's Day Romantic Ideas

Valentine's Day Romantic Ideas!

By Sean Carter

It's Valentine's Day and could the mood get more romantic? It is the time for togetherness, the time to cherish the company of the person who makes your life more special and it is the time to love and be loved. So go ahead and do everything you can to make it a special and memorable Valentine's Day. In case you are a little out of ideas, check out this list of romantic ideas for your Valentine's Day. Club these up with your own romantic ideas and have an unforgettable Valentine's Day. So here come some Valentine's Day romantic ideas for you and your sweetheart to take up:

Everyone remembers their first date, right? So recreate that first date you had with your partner on Valentine's Day and see the sparks fly. Just do it all over again--from what you wore, where you went, what you talked about, etc. This will literally be a romantic walk down memory lane and the thrill of reliving a new romance will also be there. So why not?

Write a self-created note to your beloved on Valentine's Day. And if you are a woman, wear dark lipstick and put kiss-prints all over it. If you are a man, spray some of your daily body cologne on it. This will not only make your beloved feel pampered, but it will also add a tremendous boost to all the romance in the air on February 14.

Here's another of the fun romantic ideas for Valentine's Day that you can try out this year. Keep a tab on all the places your partner generally visits in a day. Leave a love note in each such place so that your sweetheart discovers a note everywhere he/ she lays hand on. For instance, leave a note in the fridge, under the plate, in the purse or wallet, in between the dollar bills and so on.
This next Valentine's Day romantic idea is a little time-taking, but a winner for sure. Make a makeshift restaurant on your terrace and send a cute invite to your partner. Cook or get all the favorite dishes of your beloved's choice and have a feast to remember. When the meal is over, get a bill and write on it: "salad price: one hug, pasta price: two kisses, desserts price: five kisses" to get your love beaming in all the innovation.

Now if you are a true romantic, then this idea is just the thing for you. Leave a trail of heart-shaped candies wrapped in red from the door to the bed of your partner. Then write a note like "My heart is where you are, my dear" and leave it on the bed. Make sure not to be there in the house when he/ she steps in.

Now if you're looking for some simple and sweet romantic ideas for Valentine's Day, check this out. On Valentine's Day, call your partner at work several times and tell him/ her how great he/ she looks and how lucky you are to be with him/ her. A compliment is as romantic as any other physical gesture. And it's all that you beloved craves for each moment, more so on Valentine's Day.

Or you may also organize a day-out on Valentine's Day with your sweetheart. Blindfold him/ her and drive to a place where you have already set up a blanket, candies, flowers and food of his/ her choice. Gifted a day like this, your valentine will gladly admit that you are the greatest romantic in the world.

Here's a fun idea to pep up the romance on Valentine's Day--buy a lottery ticket and attach a note on it--"I hit a jackpot when I met you". Hide it with the other Valentine's gifts and give it to your partner as you wish a 'Happy Valentine's Day' or 'be my Valentine' or 'will you marry me'.
Another of the irresistibly romantic ideas for your Valentine's Day--On February 14, you can replace the light bulbs in your bedroom with candles. Candles are a Valentine's Day favorite for their warm snug glow and romantic effusion, so they might just help you get into a romantic mood.
And if you are alone on Valentine's Day, you needn't worry because here's a fun idea for you too. Decorate your house with flowers, take along bubble bath, have some delicious food and watch your favorite movie. The quality time you spend with yourself will be the perfect Valentine's Day treat for you, and why not !

So try out these Valentine's Day romantic ideas and have a memorable time with your valentine. Remember to pack up your work early on February 14 and head straight home or wherever your beloved is to enjoy all the romance this Valentine's Day ! And here are some funnily helpful tips for you to bear in mind as you date full throttle on Valentine's Day:

Useful Tips For Your Valentine's Day Date
Make sure that you don't give the same Valentine's Day card as last year.
Don't leave your date alone with your folks.
Don't blow your nose.
Do not give her an engagement ring you got for someone else.
Don't get your partner a gift he/ she may be allergic to.
