Love is in the air (and everywhere else) when you follow these tips for creating a romantic and personalized Valentine's Day greeting.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    Meditate upon the subject of your valentine. Make a list of your sweetheart's unique attributes, and focus on them in your note.

  2. Step 2

    Choose a writing style. Traditional poetry, haiku, free verse or letter format all constitute romantic methods by which to express yourself.

  3. Step 3

    Choose words that are positive, complimentary, romantic and deeply personal. Now is not the time to be shy.

  4. Step 4

    Suggest a romantic interlude, or reminisce about a past encounter with your valentine. You can be discreet and seductive by weaving meaning into your words and asking your valentine to read between the lines.

  5. Step 5

    Compare your valentine to a phenomenon that you find almost as stunning as him or her: a sunset, a rose, a waterfall.

  6. Step 6

    Write with scented and colored pens to add a mystical and luxurious element to the valentine.

Tips & Warnings
  • The method of delivery can be as romantic as the card itself. Place your love note under a pillow or tucked between items on a breakfast-in-bed tray.
