Valentine’s Day is a very special day for couples. It often
involves flowers, chocolates, cards, fancy dinners, and anything else romantic
you can think of. But there’s nothing terribly romantic about email and text.
Instead, why not go traditional and use snail mail to get your point across?
Love letters have been used throughout history to make grand expressions, but
you can use snail mail for more than just that this Valentine’s Day. Read on to
find some ways to use the mail to deliver great, fun, romantic gifts this year.
Make Your Own Card
Buying cards can be very expensive, and making them is more
heartfelt anyway! A simple Google search will give you tons of ideas to help
you make your own creative cards. They may be as simple as you folding some
paper and writing a sweet message, or complex involving paint, glitter, 3D
effects, and more. No matter how you make your card, send it through the mail
so your partner can have a nice surprise on Valentine’s Day.
Make Vouchers To Mail
This is also a great option if you’re on a budget. Making
vouchers is fun and really lets your creativity shine. You can make all sorts
of vouchers for your significant other. One example is a voucher offering to do
their dishes or laundry. Other examples can include date nights, letting them
pick the Friday night movie, and more. Make these vouchers on fun, Valentine’s
Day themed paper to really make them stand out.
Mail A Love Letter
Love letters are classic for a reason. They’re romantic.
Writing a love letter means sitting down with a pen and paper and really
thinking about your relationship. What makes it special? Why do you love this
person? The longer you are with someone, the less likely you are to craft these
exquisite letters. So take some time, sit down, really think about why you love
your significant other, and write it down. They’ll be so surprised to get a
long, romantic letter in the mail from you.
Send A Gift In The
Mail
Everyone loves getting packages, and getting a gift in the
mail from you will surprise and delight your partner. This is a great idea in
particular if you aren’t planning to buy flowers or chocolate. It can be tricky
to time this one, so coordinate with your local post office. And if it arrives
a day or two early, that just makes it even more of a surprise!
Buy Valentine’s Day
Themed Packaging
If you are planning to send you gift via mail, take it a
step further by investing in Valentine’s Day themed packaging materials. This
is another way to really let your creativity shine. You can find red and pink
boxes online, and even boxes specifically designed for Valentine’s Day. Take a
look around and find something you like…or more accurate, that your partner
will like.
We hope these ideas will help make this Valentine’s Day
extra special!
