You could find a jar, and on different coloured paper, write down your favourite memories together, reasons that you love them, quotes and song lyrics, or even future date ideas. The handwritten element shows you’ve put the time into reminiscing on times you’ve shared.
Similar to the first one, you can write down the same type of things on different pages, but it would allow you to have a selection of photos that are associated with each memory, as well as giving you the chance to write heartfelt letters which express your love and appreciation for the other person. You can put more time into having both of your personalities expressed in a book.
This is one of my favourite ways to show my appreciation for someone. You can fill it with songs that remind you of the other person or use it as an excuse to introduce them to some of your favourite songs. I always love to spend time making sure that the order is right, with the perfect cover photo.
This can either be done alone or by inviting that special person over to help you. You can never guarantee that baking will go smoothly, but you will both laugh about it. It’s a chance for you to find out their favourite sweet treat, and you get to make it with love – rather than buying it from the shop. Finding a cute box will make it feel extra special too.
This will help you avoid the stress of finding a restaurant at the last minute. You can light candles, set the mood with music (maybe the custom playlist you made), and combine elements of your favourite meals. It will be a lot cheaper, and you don’t feel like you’re shouting to have a conversation.
