Chicken nuggets bouquet and other unusual gifts for Valentine’s Day

Bouquet of flowers and chocolates again? Be more creative and give your beloved something unique and from the heart. Nowadays, it’s no longer who gave the most expensive gift, but who exerted the most effort in it.

Here are some unconventional Valentine’s Day gifts you can give to your significant other that they probably won’t expect but will surely appreciate.

Non-flower bouquet 

Truly, a bouquet of flowers is great, but a bouquet of something that does not wither in three days and is more personalized is legendary.

Take for example what Rico Villanueva gave his girlfriend, Annika Aguinaldo. Instead of giving her flowers for their one-month anniversary, he gave her chicken nuggets.

“I told him I didn’t like flowers, so he got me a bouquet of chicken nuggets, and I pretty much became the happiest girl on the planet,” said Aguinaldo in her tweet that went viral.

You can also try giving a bouquet of french fries or treats covered with bacon. But if you want to go on the healthy side, give your sweetheart a bouquet of fruits or Fruiquet.

At the end of the day, giving them a bouquet of anything will surely make them happy on Valentine’s day.

Wish jar

To make this gift, you only need a small jar, strips of colored paper, and goals you want to fulfil with your loved one. 

The true essence of this gift comes after you gave it to them. You can start unrolling the strips of paper you put inside and create more memories with them. After fulfilling said goals, put the date of when you’ve accomplished it at the back of the paper. 

This gift does not only hold words inside, but memories shared with them that you will never forget.

Letters book

Reading other people’s love stories is nice, but creating your own is a hundred miles better.

UNCONVENTIONAL PRESENTS. Give chocolates and flower bouquets a rest this year, and go for unusual Valentine's gift to surprise your loved one. (Photos of Annika Aguinaldo from @AnnikaAgs Twitter account)

In creating the Letters book, you need to compile envelopes, notes and other prompts that you can use to start the story of your love with them. In here, you can record all memories, thoughts and emotions you shared together through the years.. 

Give them the Letters book on Valentine’s Day so you can start writing your love story that you can share to the world. 

American novelist John Updike once said, “We are most alive when we’re in love.” Indeed, it won’t hurt to put some effort in the gift you’re giving to your dearest.
