Valentine's Day is for the romantic at heart. Any gift given on that holiday should be well thought out, specifically tailored to the recipient or unique. Valentine's Day is a time to consider a different spin on traditional gift ideas and to think way outside the box. It will be well worth the effort, leaving her with a gift she will never forget.

Variations of Valentine's traditions
Flowers are the first thought on Valentine's Day, but flowers die quickly. Instead of fresh-cut flowers, consider a Seeds of the Month kit from Red Envelop.com. It contains everything needed to grow flowers all year long--a dozen seed packets, 12 colorful pots and soil. Flower selections include alyssum, baby's breath, cosmos, dianthus, impatiens, lobelia, marigolds, pansies, petunias, poppies and sweet peas. The cost is under $55.
Instead of heart-shaped candy, give her something she'll enjoy along with you. Try chocolate body paint from Personal Creations.com. Personalize the label and message on the delicious 8 oz. jar of French chocolate. The cost is a steal at under $20.

Think outside the box
Give her the moon, or at least a piece of it, from LunarLand.com. A mere $30 buys one acre of the moon's surface. Not only is the idea romantic, it also could turn out to be a great investment.
