You can either embrace it or hide away until all the nasty cards and even nastier love you teddies have gone into hibernation until next year.

I'm a bit of a romantic and love the whole thing apart from the nasty cards and teddies. I love making a gesture to my loved one to say thank you for loving me the way I want to be loved. I know some people think it’s all hipe and exploytation but I’m just an old romantic. 

I think it’s important to remind the ones we love that we really do love and appreciate them with a small gesture, however we shouldn’t have to wait until valentines to do it though!! 

Obviously Valentines is the traditional day to declare your love to someone anonymously, which can be very exciting. 

Here are a few golden rules that may help with your success rate. 

Tip one : Check that the person you would like to declare your love to is aware that you exist, it’s not going to work if they don’t have any idea it was you that sent it. You may like to add a clue or a riddle that will point them in the right direction. 

Tip Two : Take care that there will be no décors, that the person you are sending the card to doesn’t have a boyfriend or girlfriend that is likely to take offence and coarse a scene. 

Tip Three : Keep it tasteful, especially if you don’t know the person too well. What you may find funny or a bit of a laugh someone else may find it crude!!! 

Tip Four : You don’t have to spend lots of money to declare your love, sometimes it’s better to keep it simple even home-made to have the most impact. 

I wish you all good luck for the forthcoming Valentine’s day, if you would like help in declaring your love give me a call. 07540 802 118
