Making Valentines Day Sweet for Your Sweetheart- -Pamper Her
Pamper Her

By Wayne Parker, About.com

Most of our wives and girlfriends appreciate a chance to be pampered a little. One of the best features of a home we recently purchased is a jetted tub in the master bath-just the place to go for my sweetheart to unwind and relax and feel a little pampered. Here are a few ideas about thing you can do for Valentine's Day to pamper your partner.

Give her a day at a Day Spa. Offer to take a vacation day and stay home with the kids so she can enjoy a day spa visit-your treat. At a day spa, she can just be pampered all she wants-a little time in the hot tub, a massage, a little rejuvenation.

Plan a little romantic getaway. There are so many great bed and breakfast inns and resorts today, and they offer a real opportunity for a little pampering. You can find a comprehensive listing of bed and breakfast operators at bedandbreakfast.com.

Picture Her Glamorous. Some partners love the idea of being a model for a day and receiving a gift certificate for a glamour shot. Various portrait studios offer a service where they invite your sweetheart into the studio, do a professional makeup and hair style and create the overall glamour model look and then shoot a professional portrait. She will look and feel like a princess and you will have a permanent reminder of the experience.

Find her favorite fragrance. If you know your partner's favorite perfume and it's one you like as well, this can be great gift.
