Valentines Day

8 simple gestures to make him feel extra loved this Valentine’s Day

by Katrina - The Organised Housewife February 10, 2017November 11, 2020

Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to put you ridiculously out of pocket! Ditch the expensive gifts and fancy restaurants this year and spoil your partner with simple and romantic gestures. Acts of kindness can make someone feel just as special and shows you’ve thought of them. I hope you get spoilt this Valentines Day! Here are 8 simple gestures to make him feel extra loved this Valentine’s Day.

BREAKFAST IN BED – Are you one for enjoying eating food in their comfort of their own bed!? I know this idea is popular, some find it a lovely morning treat. I have never had breakfast in bed, purely because I don’t find it comfortable and don’t want crumbs in the bed. But if your this way inclined, treat your hubby to a yummy breakfast in bed.

MOVIE DATE (AT HOME) – Forget a trip to the cinemas. Create your own movie night within the comfort of your own home. Bring a mattress into the living room or load up your bed with extra blankets, make some popcorn and grab yourself a romantic comedy and – voila! You have yourself a cute movie date.

POST IT NOTES – On the mirror, kettle, rear-view mirror, on top of the toilet… stick cute messages on items and locations around the house that your partner sees everyday. The notes don’t have to be long and poetic. A simple ‘I love you’ or ‘Your hugs are the best’ can put a smile on their dial.

CREATE A PLAYLIST – “Where words fail, music speaks”. Create a playlist on Spotify or iTunes or a CD with a list of songs that remind you of them. It could be contain songs you both love or one that has a special meaning to you both.

ROMANTIC HOMEMADE DINNER – Cook up his favourite meal and set the table nicely for a special dining experience. I would prefer to have a nice home cooked meal with my hubby. He will love this and if he’s lucky, you’ll have prepared dessert!

STOCK THE FRIDGE – Whether he likes beers, wine or non-alcoholic beverages, stock the fridge with his favourite drink. He will love you for it! I also found these lovely romanic printable labels to put around beers. You can find them here.

PACK THEIR LUNCH – If they’re working on Valentine’s Day, make them lunch for the day. If you usually make it for them, put in a little extra effort and include their favourite foods. Slipping in a love letter is another kind gesture they will appreciate!

✨ Task: Clean + Tidy The Shower
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You know me, I like to organise all types of areas! Junk drawer, utensil drawer, dirty washing- I even organise the shower.  Especially with 3 teenage kids there can end up being quite a bit of product lingering in the shower. Organising makes the shower easier to clean too! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My kids like to keep all their body washes and face scrubs in the shower and just add to it, they also each like a different type of shampoo. So there are a lot of bottles in their shower. I like to keep all products up off the floor to make cleaning as easy as possible. I had an over shower holder, but it would rattle and then went rusty. So when I saw the iHook Shower Caddy I was eager to try it out!

✨ Task: Tidy Pantry
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have just recently given my pantry a makeover. I like to keep all items in my pantry in containers, I throw out the bulky packaging and this utilises the space in my pantry really well. I’ve removed all the Tupperware from my pantry and replaced with OXO, which you can purchase in my shop @organisedhq (currently up to 40% off). I have put the old containers I was using away for my twins as I am sure they are going to be moving out sometime in the next few years.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I do have a lot of containers- I like to cook, bake and create and share recipes with The Organised Housewife community. I like to always have everything readily available. I am absolutely loving my new pantry! So easy to see what food levels I have and what needs replenishing in the next grocery shop. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've filled my pantry with a lot of different sized containers to suit a variety of food. There are specific containers that fit particular foods perfectly! I've created a cheat sheet to help you know what container is best for which foods! Free download in the link in my bio 😊

✨ Task: Clean Three Windows
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I must admit that cleaning windows is one of the cleaning tasks that I regularly neglected in my home when the kids were younger. It was a hopeless cause to want to have sparkling clean windows when there were curious little fingers around. Purely for my own sanity, I stopped worrying about having perfectly clean windows inside, but when they were clean they looked so good! I think with kids it’s OK to lower your expectations of having a spotless home.

Cleaning your windows may seem overwhelming because your home has so many. Don’t think about having to do them all at once! Instead, grab pockets of time and do 3 windows today and 3 windows next time. I like doing things in 3's 😁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
