With just over a week to go, you may have noticed all the oversized stuffed teddies, heart shaped chocolates and bouquets of red roses filling the stores...
How about trying something not so cliche this Valentine's Day? Skip over all the stuffy flowers and candlelit dinners for two and perhaps try out some of these ideas...
Yummy hand made cupcakes, fun bedding, love
stamps, beautiful paper journals, edible bouquets, with bubbly, a love mug for your morning coffee, canvas love mail pouch to put all your presents in, pretty pandora charms and breakfast in bed on Limonge...divine!
Once you've picked out the perfect present...it needs to be wrapped with love. I like to used plain brown paper as the foundation and then layer - using lots of different patterned ribbons in all shades of pink and red.
Instead of tying your ribbon in a bow, stick a tiny wooden heart on top...such a simple way of adding texture and interest to the gift.
The gift tag on top was made using quality embossed paper and a stamp. This will make your wrapping complete either attached with a little peg or tied on with string.
