Maybe you’ve been dating a month or perhaps you’re ringing in your third Valentine’s Day with your favorite guy. Instead of just whipping our lingerie and making his sexual dreams come true – try one of these sweet, yet really awesome ideas to surprise your guy with a V-Day he’ll actually enjoy. (And okay, make sure to end with a sexy-something, too!)
Feed Him With Love
Maybe home-cooking is at the center of your couple’s routine, and this could be a great idea to step it up on V-Day. (It’s also pretty great if you’re on a budget.) Try buying some heart-shaped cookie cutters and making him a love breakfast. From heart-shaped bacon to loving cinnamon rolls and eggs in a heart basket, be creative and find the best one dish for your man to wake up happy. This year’s sunday Valentine’s Day will give you the opportunity for a late brunch and some afternoon fun. Why not follow up with some cute heart-shaped cookies to follow up! You’ll find a wonderful list of recipes here. (And if you’re doing a low-key Valentine’s Day dinner, try heart-shaped pizza, too!)
Get Creative
Remember writing Valentine’s in elementary school? Skip the Hallmark card and make him a cute, miniature Valentine’s Day card instead. You can write something simple like “I dig you” or “You make my heart go whooa!” and attach candy. It’ll make him reminisce and he’ll love your thoughtfulness to make something handmade. For inspiration, check out these embroidered DIY cards.
The Gift of a Life Together
Think of all the things that he hates to do: taking out the garbage, getting up to take the dog out, picking up after himself. On Valentine’s Day, give him a handmade coupon book letting him off the hook. You can also include things he loves: a night in with you, a massage, a I-will-never-have-a-headache, etc.
