Adore your valentine....run them a bath!

As I continue this quest on ways to adore your valentine...I remember that I once used to love hanging out in the bath.

Its a very rare luxury which I give myself these days given that I am tackling two little ones under two...but there really is nothing more relaxing than putting your head under water and drifting into the world beyond for just one moment....ahhhh...I digress.

SO spoil your valentine...run them a bath, pour them a glass of wine and lower the lights, light some candles...and give them some time to enjoy...or join them! Either way, the gift of luxury needed cost the earth....but these sweet little items from madeit might help!

Adore your valentine - write them letters of love...

Valentines day is less than a month away...so over the next few weeks I will be visiting ideas of ways you can adore your valentine!
Todays idea is the old fashioned kind...write them a letter of love..or two or more...leave them in their lunch box, in their car...send them by snail mail to work...or home, when they least expect it, they will feel your love, the old fashioned way :)
Write from the heart, about days gone past, about days ahead - about what you love ... about your loved one!
Spray it with perfume, fill the envelope with rose petals, kiss it with lipstick - make it pretty....!

...and write in on our love letter sweet heart love notelts...available at our madeit (for the Aussies) and etsy (for the internationals)....
