Your last-minute Valentine’s e-Kit

What the?

Valentine’s Day is this Sunday?

THIS Sunday?

OK, don’t panic. Take a deep breath and check out this Valentine e-kit complete with suggestions, links and tips – created for all those who’ve left their Valentine’s Day preparations until the last minute.

Or forgotten entirely.

Print your own card

If you’re feeling crafty, make one of the cards below. Just click your favourite design, print the pdf, cut along the (very pale) dotted lines and and make your own Valentine’s Day card. Remember, you get bonus points for home-made these days and everyone loves getting something special in the mail. And why not find some nice paper to run through the printer for an extra lush look.

Send a Valentine’s e-card

If you don’t have time to send your Valentine’s Day card, you can send it as an e-card to anyone with an inbox.

5 last-minute gift ideas

If grabbing a bunch of flowers from the local servo isn’t your style, here are a few fun (and fast) ideas for Feb 14.

  1. Magazine subscription.
    Nip down to the local newsagent, pick up a magazine and arrange the subscription online.
  2. Handpicked flowers.
    They’re more personal than a store-bought bunch. Tie ‘em up with some twine for a home-made look.
  3. Heart shaped cookies.
    Spend a couple of hours baking your own and you’ll really get into the good books. Here are some of our favourite recipes.
  4. Book of poetry.
    Get to Borders this weekend, or tonight – most are open until 10 or 11pm.
  5. Max Brenner Chocolates.
    Sure you can get a box of choccies from any old place. But Max Brenner chocolates are truly lush and come beautifully packaged so you don’t have to wrap them. Win-win.

Hope this helps you enjoy a happy (and relaxing) Valentine’s Day.

    Nice.
    Perhaps Stef can send one of those cards to herself. ;-)

    Not sure if she’d lift her Valentine’s boycott long enough to send one to herself. Maybe someone else could do it for her – hint, hint.

    This is great especially if you are one of those people who forget Valentine’s Day every year – not me though, those “other” people.
