A memorable Valentine's Day gift can be one that recalls favorite memories from your partner's past or from your history as lovers. Consider:
Fill a Memory Tin. This one takes a little thought and planning, but is sure to please. Think back about the fun times and memories you have shared together and write a little line about each one. For example, "Getting caught making out at the park," or "When you first told me you were pregnant." Then fold them up and put them in a little heart shaped tin you can find at a variety store this time of year. She will have a ton of fun remembering the good times with you!
Post the Pics. Most framing or photography stores will have picture collage frames where you can put favorite photos into mats. Dig through the pictures at home and build a photo collage of favorite memories.
Mementos in a Box. Does your partner have a dresser drawer full of souvenirs or mementos? Things like concert ticket stubs, matchbooks, restaurant napkins, etc. from your life together sometimes find their way into boxes or drawers. Consider taking a few of the meaningful ones and head down to the local framing shop to have them put in a memory box. Or you might take one or two special ones and have them encased in lucite at a local trophy shop. These can again make fun and memorable Valentine's Gifts.
The best way to celebrate Valentine's Day is to give your partner the gift she would appreciate, not the one you think she should have. Focus on her and not you-and this Valentine's Day will be the best ever.
