Happy Valentines Day! Instead of the usual soppy cards and roses, I like to look for some different, fun and unique ideas for showing my loved ones how much I care. It’s not often that we go over the Valentines top at Drawn Outdoors HQ, but one day I might just surprise Mr Perfect!
Oh Happy Day had this idea for transforming your lawn into a loved up artwork. You might like to try it out, the instructions are at Valentine’s Day Garden Heart Attack
Activekidsclub.com has a great idea to spread the valentines love to our feathered friends (though the instructions will need a little adaptation for those of us in the southern hemisphere). Take a look at Give a Heart to the Birds.
trendhunter.com has found a more extreme way to demonstrate your love. Check out their Valentine street art gallery
And my favourite outdoor valentine project is this one from Playscapes. Because everyone loves a playground, check out this fantastic playground designed by a year 3 class in Denmark and realised by landscape architect Helle Nebelong. The Playscapes article is here.
Love and Valentine’s kisses to you all,
Sam
Great ideas. I think I have not been here in a while. It is getting hard to keep up, but glad I visited today. The garden heart attack wins! What a lovely idea, and not just for Valentine’s day. How about for an outdoor wedding ceremony and anniversary? Thanks.
Hi Granny great to see you again! I thought the same thing with the “heart attack” idea. My sister had a garden wedding a few years back and it would have been perfect!
