How to do little things to keep that spark alive

Sometimes it just takes a little something to spark your own creativity, here's a guide of simple things you can do to ignite that passion. You too can share your good love story with us...

Things You'll Need

• Passion
• A little bit of time
• A little bit of playfulness
• A little bit of money

Step One

post it note love!

A NOTE A DAY

Buy a pad of sticky notes.Write a couple and keep them on hand and as your better half leaves for the office, slip one in his/her briefcase, shirt pocket or purse.

What to write on the notes? how about:

I can't wait to see you tonight!
I will be thinking about you all day!
As you read this note, I will be preparing myself for you!

The simplest of notes will work wonders and start getting your significant other thinking and daydreaming about you.

Step Two

 

PETALS...LOTS OF PETALS!

Petals make any woman, (even a man for that matter) go nuts.
Rose petals have forever been a symbol of love and passion, and they ooze a scent that tantalizes your senses.
So if something so simple is so romantic, why not use it?

How?
Here are just a few ways you can use petals...
by the way, florists will sell you bags of them or art supplies stores have a silk version- just as sexy, and reusable! The scent? not a problem -just get a rose spray and spritz it on.

* On top of ceiling fans and turn the fan on as they walk in (on low)

* Bring some to a restaurant and put them on the table

* Inside an envelope with a card or letter

* Floating in a bowl of water - with or without floating candles

* Placed in the book your sweetheart is reading

* Surrounding your mate with petals while he or she is sleeping

* In a crock pot with a little water for a beautiful smell as they walk in, the perfect preamble for a romantic??? 

Step Three

candles add a romantic touch

CANDLES

When matched up with step 2 (rose petals) you are in for the romantic ride of your life!
There is just something about a candle lit room that sets the atmosphere for romance...so go ahead set a beautiful table, two placemats, matching napkins and all, and bring dinner. But watch the mood lighten, the smile comes, and the night evolves into something special, all it takes is a little something!

Now for those who really want to bring on the romance...try a buying gourmet food from his/her favorite restaurant, or even cooking it yourself, there is no better way to say I love you, that with food.

Tip: get them what they like, in the colors they like...tonight is all about pleasing them, not you!

Step Four

A MASSAGE: 

Start out with a full bosy massage, but not the 5 minute (then you are all over them kind) this is the kind that will make them want you, but you grab their arms and keep on massaging, it's all about hightening senses.
Do you dare? Get a simple Body oil (Neutrogena has one that is a light sesame formula, it smells great and warms the body and hands). best of all you can get it anywhere.

By the way, remember the sticky note?
write one in the morning, saying:

Present this tonight at dinner and recieve a full body massage and...!
You will have them drooling all day.
