Take the opportunity to celebrate the birthday of someone special during the month of romance and love.

From Quick Guide: Amethyst Jewelry Guide
Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Birthday Cards
  • Primroses
  • Birthstone Jewelry
  1. Step 1

    Think about this birthday ahead of time, because stores may still be sold out of many items through February as a result of the December holidays.

  2. Step 2

    Consider giving jewelry with the receiver's traditional birthstone, amethyst. Or, give jewelry with February's more mystical birthstone of bloodstone.

  3. Step 3

    Remember that the flower for February is the primrose if you would like to send the birthday boy or girl a gift of flowers.

  4. Step 4

    Keep in mind that the astrological sign for those born from January 20 to February 18 is Aquarius, while February 19 to March 20 birthdays are Pisces. Think about a present relating to the receiver's astrological sign or horoscope; a sign of Aquarius indicates a creative and social personality, while Pisces are purported to be more emotional.

  5. Step 5

    Try a combination Valentine's Day and birthday gift if the birthday falls before or on February 14.

  6. Step 6

    Avoid buying on-sale items such as candy or chocolates after Valentine's Day and turning them into birthday gifts.

Tips & Warnings
  • Try to choose a personal gift that shows time and thought, rather than a high price.
