Putting Sexy in your Valentine's Day

 

 
 We hear about the cards, the flowers, the candy, the jewelry, and that is all well and good, but what about the passionate side to one's Valentine's. Lets face it, we all desire to be desired, especially on the biggest day that represents love.
 
Below are three ideas that are explained in more detail below. All of them are very throughtful and will take some preparation.  Sexy valentine ideas one and three are the obviously the most sexy valentine ideas, but the second one should still be just as wonderful.
 
1.  The Love Coupons
 
2.  Some handmade chocolates
 
3.  A Strip Tease.

Less is more... A single item is always a better gift than several.

 
The Love Coupons
 
This is not about saving money this is about giving the most thoughtful, most romantic gift to your lover. In case you don't know what they are, a Love Coupon is a coupon that can be exchanged for a service.
Here is what you do:
  1. Buy a receipt book with tear-out pages, if the there are stubs that re retained in the book that is even better because it will give you a souvenir.
  2. Write on every page "This voucher entitles the holder to .......... it is non exchangeable and not transferable"
  3. Now comes the fun part ... time to fill in the blanks. What are you going to do for your partner? This is also why a homemade book of vouchers is better than a bought one. You know exactly what will make them happy, what they would like to do.
Ideas for things to offer on the vouchers. Try to divide them between sexy things that will please them and every day mundane but helpful things for example:
  • A sensual massage
  • Washing each others hair and towel drying it.
  • A popcorn and movie night in front of the fire and all computer and cell phone devices are off.
  • An evening babysitting
  • Adventurous sex - when the kids are not home and extend the babysitting coupon as being the only one transferable so they can stay at the neighbors for an hour or two. *Wink*
  • Washing the dishes wearing intimate apparel - Again something I wouldn't suggest when the kids are home as it could scar them for life. *smile*
It is best to establish some ground rules as to how the vouchers are redeemed and write them on the first page of the book. This sounds a but pedantic and you might think it will ruin the magic, however if you don't do this and later on fail to honour a voucher that could leave bad feelings.


Handmade Chocolate
 
I know that chocolates are not exactly an original gift but by making them yourself you are adding a bit of love to the mix that no expensive imported luxury can compete with.
This recipe for chocolate truffles is as good as it gets, there are only really three ingredients
  • Chocolate
  • Cream
  • Butter
The secret to making them special is to use good quality chocolate. If the recipe calls for 250g of chocolate but I would halve that and use the mist expensive dark chocolate I can afford. The cocoa content should be 70% or greater.
Loosely wrap them in baking parchment before putting into a box this helps stop them sticking together and makes them look handmade. They are best at a cool but not cold temperature so take them out of the fridge for 10 minutes before serving.
 
Sexy Strip tease
 
You generally hear that only those that feel confident attempt this, but it's all about having fun and if it hits all the right notes and will make a Valentines day to remember, why not give it a try.
  • Choose your clothes in advance. Maybe buy something new it will be a gift to both of you.
  • Place two chairs facing each other in a room
  • Dim the lights and put on some sexy music - The right music is everything, fast or slow, it is all in preference. If your not a fast dancer, may I suggest keeping it slow.
  • Make your partner sit in the room facing an empty chair
  • They will probably have guessed what is about to happen but keep it a secret anyway, it's all part of the game
  • Stay in character wearing a hat with a brim to hide behind will help, so will the dim lights. If you are lit up and your partner is in shadows this will also help you lose yourself in the moment.
  • You don't have to wear stilettos to be sexy - bare foot is just as sexy with a pretty nail polish color.
  • refrain from doing the duckface self photo look - it isn't sexy at all.
  • Keeping eye contact with your partner - The eyes are the windows to one soul.
  • And last but not least - how and when it ends is up to you ... but don't rush it.


And when all else fails remember this one rule of thumb -
It's the thought that counts ...It is a cliché but it really is the thought that counts - by spending less on a gift you are actually giving more. These three ideas are for cheap but extremely sexy valentines day ideas.
To just pop into Amazon and click out a few expensive gifts doesn't take much effort. On the other hand a thoughtful gift that is completely individual really does show the person receiving it that you have thought about them, you know them and you value them.
