Unique Valentines Gifts

Unique Valentines Gift Ideas

It’s not long now until Valentines day.  And it’s definitely the marmite date of all the events celebrated throughout the year!  It’s the one day in the calendar that’s guaranteed polarise opinion!  Understandably, some single people hate the occasion, whether that be because it reminds them of their single status, or because they hate the idea that romance is just focused on one day in the whole year!  Couples seem to either fall into two categories, ones who don’t mark the occasion, and the others who go all out and do the whole gift giving and romantic meal!

I personally love it, but I guess that’s because I have a lovely husband who likes to spoil me!  I always get the ‘traditional’ valentines presents of chocolate and flowers.  But he also always gets me a special present too that is more meaningful.

And I know that there are plenty of men (and women) out there just like my husband, as our papercuts are always popular valentines gifts.  They are the perfect present if you want something a little more personalised or special.  And this year, I’ve had the privilege of creating a very special paper cut indeed, it’s for a wedding proposal, how amazing is that?!  I’m hoping that she says yes (only 4 more weeks to go until I find out!)
