Easy and lovely VALENTINE'S DAY GIFTS and decorating ideas!

When we are in a relationship, we often wonder how to make Valentine's Day special; sometimes we run out of time or even ideas, and we end up taking our significant other to a regular dinner, luckily in a good restaurant (because we forgot to make reservations too) or even just giving them a rush nonsense gift.

 

But if you want to make this day memorable for your lover, try one or maybe a few of these Valentine's day decorating ideas and gifts that will certainly help you express all your love to your other half!

---> Lovers Breakfast! <---

What better way to begin a romantic day than a Love style breakfast?
It is so easy to do and creative that it is far one of the best Valentine's day ideas I have seen.

Love Breakfast

You can buy everything done except for the french toast with the heart shape, but again, they are so easy to make; cut the bread into a heart shape before starting to make the toasts, and that's it. 

If you feel like baking, you can find the ingredients and tutorial by A.C.Moore here. 

 

- Chocolate-covered Strawberry hearts.

You can add to your delicious breakfast the most common lover's fruit: Strawberries!

There's magic with chocolate strawberries that makes them so tempting and unique, but if you can make them with a heart shape! Wow, it will be even cuter and more surprising!

This idea is from One Little Project. Here you can find the tutorial on making these adorable chocolate-covered strawberries.

2. Post-it Heart décor!
Heart shaped post-it notes surprise
This fantastic idea from - Jen Muller, Live lives here - is probably the easiest way to surprise your other half! Make a heart shape with Post-its and write on each one a different reason why you love them! The person reading those beautiful notes will be so amazed and feel so much love that will never forget this Valentine's detail from you!
---> Balloons! <---

I believe balloons are simply the best compliment to any gift! And there are so many ways to decorate with them that it will be illogical not to include balloons for this lovable celebration.

 You can choose to give heart-shaped helium balloons (my favorite are foil ones), or you can make a beautiful arrangement with latex balloons to surprise your significant other in the room or any housing area like the living room, where you can set a perfect date night :)

Here is an extraordinary way to decorate a wall using latex balloons! You can make it even more special if you include this fun game idea by Kim Byers | Celebration Shoppe.

 

Valentines Balloon Game
The idea is to insert in each balloon a little paper with a message with different date night plans; here are some examples, but you know way better your other half so include fun activities that both of you have enjoyed!

You can also use letter-shaped balloons to make incredible decorations, use words like "XOXO," "Be Mine," and "Love" to create a beautiful setting with, of course, even more heart-shaped red or pink balloons to surprise your Valentine! 

 

---> Treats! <---
- Cake Pops!
Cake pops are a bite-sized morsel of cake coated in chocolate on lollipop sticks! They are among the most popular bakery treats for birthday parties and weddings and have become so trendy that they are now used as personalized gifts for any special occasion, including Valentine's day!

When that special day comes, you want your gift to be of the best quality and to have gorgeous packaging, right? Well, each cake pop is carefully rolled by hand, dipped in high-quality chocolate, and topped with edible sugar decorations; they are also individually wrapped, tied and packaged safely in a box with tissue/padding. You can tell great care is taken in creating each cake pop to ensure you receive the highest quality product; they taste SO Delicious too! That's why The Sweet Dandelion is my favorite online shop for cake-pops!
