7 Ways to Dress Up Traditional Valentines Day Flowers & Roses

Valentines Day flowers bring a smile to anyone's face because almost everybody loves flowers and for this special occasion there are some lovely and creative arrangements made ahead. 

This day of romance and love, celebrated with family, friends, classmates and casual acquaintances, provides an opportunity for unique Valentine gifts, including e.g. Valentine day roses and other Valentines flowers.

Generally speaking, when considering Valentine gifts, the most important thing is to be certain that the recipients will appreciate the gift.

Valentine Day roses and a new set of skis is a welcome gift to someone that enjoys the slopes and has access to them during the wintertime, to pick just a single example out of an infinity of examples.

So, what does your loved one like and appreciate? Whatever it is, you can combine it with flowers for an even better result!

Following are seven Valentine gift ideas to make this day particularly special to someone in your life.

A Bouquet of Valentine Flowers and Living Plants

Valentines gift ideas: Combining a living plant and a bouquet of red Valentine Roses

Even if it is a Valentines Day flower delivery, you will be able to imagine the surprise and smile of this lucky person when they open the door at home or get a call at work to walk out to the reception area for a surprise.

Valentines Day flowers and plants are a great pairing because the bouquet of Valentine flowers gives an immediate gift of lovely blooms, as well as a cheerful bit of greenery that will liven up the room with colorful leaves and blossoms in the future.

Most houseplants require minimal care while providing a reminder of your thoughtfulness every day.

Valentine Day Roses and Candy

For the artisans who enjoy creating lasting works of art and the kids who want to make something special for Dad, Mom, Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Carolyn, a handcrafted box with Valentines Day flowers and a jewelry surprise inside just might bring tears of happiness.

Consider making the size and shape unique to the recipient's lifestyle, such as a place to hold coupons, change or mail. A hinged cover and small hasp and lock make it a perfect box for the sapphire pin inside. Decorate the exterior with hand-painted Valentine day roses, red love heart drawings or whatever you like.

You can find ideas on the web to make a Valentine box with nearly any medium, from duct tape and paper mache to costume jewelry pieces and seashells.

Imagination is a wonderful thing and produces gifts unduplicated by others.

Cheap Valentine Flowers and Balloons

When you don't have too much money but still want to remind someone that you are thinking of them and a card does not seem like enough, a colorful display of silk or other inexpensive artificial Valentines flowers sporting a bouquet of balloons is a creative and cheap option.

Mix Mylar balloons with their decorative colors, sayings and designs with pink and white helium-filled balloons. Affix the flowers around the anchor on the ribbons and add a satin bow to match the flowers.

The cost starts at approximately two dollars, but is a special reminder of appreciation to those people that make a difference in your life.

Valentine Box Ideas and Jewelry

Valentines Gift Baskets with Flowers and a Pet (or Just a Stuffed Toy Animal)

Gift baskets: Combine a wicker basket, a yellow rose and a stuffed toy animal, a dog.

The Valentines Day flowers enhance the beauty of the wicker basket, but sometimes take second place to the special treasure of a fluffy kitten or perky puppy napping on the soft cushion inside.

Some treasures are perfect, such as a pet, although it is always wise to be certain, and a lot of people prefer to pick one themselves. Which is why giving people a stuffed toy animal (a.k.a. a plush toy animal or cuddly toy animal) and a letter saying you'll pay for the real thing if they so desire is often a better solution. Remember, taking in a live pet is a huge responsibility, so you don't want to force people's hand here.

If you are sure the family really want a live pet, and they don't care about picking it themselves, then you can discreetly verify there are no allergies to Valentines Day flowers and pets (or bans on pets in the building) and then spring this wonderful surprise on them. If everything is in order, make the gift even more special with enough litter, food and toys to keep the pet entertained for at least a few days.

Also, there are a number of books on how to care for and train certain breeds of dogs and cats, which is an additional thoughtful gift.

Valentine Card Ideas and a Day Spa Package

Computer programs put the ability to make a personalized card within anyone's grasp. Start out with a message such as “For My Special Valentine Flower” or “Valentines Day Flowers Deserve Special Care” and add pictures of special events in your lives or creative maps describing the pampering promised at the local day spa.

A manicure and pedicure, affectionately known as a mani-pedi, is a welcome treat for any girl.

Rather than setting an appointment, get a gift card that covers those day spa features you know she will love and fasten it to the card by adding v-shaped paper holders and sliding the card in securely.

A thoughtful additional gift is a decorative pair of Flip Flops for her to wear at the spa.

Dinner and Roses

Combine red roses with babys breath, a red vase, a glass of red wine and dinner.

Present the Valentine roses in a vase with baby's breath and ferns as a background. A sparkling silver ribbon around the vase and a card with appropriate sentiments add the perfect touch.

Top it with a special dinner to make the evening special. You can cook it yourself if you like that kind of thing. Alternatively you can take your loved one out for the night. Even though going out to dinner is a special treat, it is not always possible. The babysitter might be booked with another family or your favorite restaurants are already booked solid. If so, just bring dinner home instead.

Many delicatessens make delicious hot meals to take out. Elegant appetizers can be as easy as warming cocktail sausages in the microwave and spearing them with blue and red cocktail spears. Add to that a ready-made salad and dessert and you've got your Valentine's Day dinner.

Make it a relaxing dinner by having a prepared meal, and consider picking up decorative paper napkins and quality paper plates and bowls, along with durable plastic silverware and tablecloth. The throwaway dishes etc. ensure nobody has to do the dishes.

Complete the ambience presented by the Valentines Day flowers and candles on the table.

Final Words on Valentine Day Flowers and More

No matter what the budget is for this special day, Valentine flowers are thoughtful and a perfect gift for anyone. Flowers combine well with almost anything, from chocolates to dinner to that special Valentines gift your loved one will appreciate more than anything.

Options for Valentines gifts are extremely varied, but the love that creates each selection is what will be remembered long after the Valentine day roses fade away. So spend some time (and maybe a bit of money) preparing this. You won't regret it.
