Eight Unusual Ways To Give Jewellery On Valentine's Day

Giving
romantic gifts to your partner is one of the Valentine's traditions, and while
chocolates, flowers and jewellery are the main gifts it can be nice to make
giving these classic presents into a bit of a surprise, or make the gift giving
aspect a memory for a lifetime. Here are
some ideas that will make your Valentine's gift stand out that little bit more.
1. Send the jewellery with flowers. This means using a local florist, so you can
give them the jewellery to attach to the bouquet. You might want to pop it in the envelope with
the card or even have the box nestled into the flowers. Our romantically heart shaped gift boxes are
perfect for this and they'll stand out among the blooms.
2. Trick your partner with misleading packaging. This is best done if you're sure your partner
has a sense of humour and you're not in the bad books for anything – if you're
at risk of upsetting your partner then steer clear of this idea! You'll need the box from something
non-romantic, like a toaster or other household equipment (if you don't have a
spare box ask your friends and family if they have one you can use). Wrap the jewellery up nicely then put it
inside the toaster (or other equipment) box then wrap that too. Make sure you add some weight to make it
convincing and watch your partner's face drop, then light up when they uncover
your ruse.
3. Hide it in plain sight. Sometimes your partner might be expecting
some jewellery or another lavish present so you can confound their expectations
by giving a decoy present that's not quite what they would be expecting. Hide your real present, a piece of Amore
Argento jewellery, where they'll naturally find it - such as by their toothbrush,
next to their favourite mug or even in their car, if you can sneak the keys
away without them noticing. You may not
be there to see their face but you'll definitely get a big thank you when you
see them.
4. Get someone else to give it. You might enlist the help of your children to
present the jewellery (be careful with younger children as they should never be
allowed to play with jewellery unsupervised), a pet (again safety first, make
sure the pet can't accidentally swallow it!) or a favourite teddy as the
presenter of the jewellery.
5. Make it a real surprise. If you tend to exchange gifts at the same
time of day each year why not switch it up; for example, instead of waiting for
the evening, why not give your gift over breakfast? You could even give it the day before if you
want to be really unusual about the timing and this allows your partner to
actually wear their new jewellery on Valentine's Day. Leaving it until later and pretending you've
forgotten is another common tactic but that’s not without its potential for
arguments!
6. Make your partner look for it. You could go to the lengths of creating a
treasure hunt with clues leading them all around the house hunting high and low
for their gift, alternatively you could give them verbal clues about where to
find their present if you haven't got the time to spend writing out lots of clues. It's a nice idea to hide it somewhere
significant in the home or garden for a personal touch.
7. Give a gift inside a gift. If you have the budget to buy two or more
gifts, you can use each one as wrapping for the other. A new handbag might contain a lovely box of
chocolates, which has the jewellery hidden inside the tray (also a good excuse
to eat a couple of chocolates to make room!).
Make sure you encourage your partner to keep on looking until they have
found the main present.
8. Get creative with the wrapping. If you don't want to make a big show of
giving the gift but you want to put a twist on it, then think about the
wrapping choices. You could use an old
map of an area that's special to you, pages from an old calendar with
significant dates on, or even wrap it in a silk scarf as a second present. Our heart shaped boxes are pretty enough not
to be wrapped but you can put an extra personal touch to your gift with
creative packaging.
We hope
you've found some inspiration for gift giving that will make Valentine's Day
2020 one to remember.
