Alternative Valentine ideas

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching and it’s got me thinking about love!.
While society seems to think so, it’s clear to me that not everyone has that super squishy, all encompassing unicorns and rainbow fairytale kind of love. Not all love is heterosexual! Not all love is simple! Not all love is romantic...Not all love is textbook, but still we are constantly bombarded with images and ideas of how love should be.

Thankfully the one thing that does seem to be true is that love conquers all, and so these days it’s becoming more generally accepted to break the norm, however still, very sadly there are prejudices within our societies that do not accept people just being people and having the right to pursue love. This is not OK!

I was thinking about valentines design ideas, swept away on the commercial expectations of it all, and felt sadly that many people are simply not represented! I put up a really simple post on my Instagram account @enchantedwordclouds and was bombarded with thank you messages from the LGBT🌈 community thanking me for representing them! Is it really that difficult to find alternative valentines ideas to help express your feelings for your loved ones?


What if you’re a couple who isn’t all hearts and flowers? who would appreciate an anatomical heart design more than a traditional heart one?!
What if you’re a same sex couple? Or gender neutral?

Well look no further! At enchanted words we can do anything and we have no prejudice here... so if you’re looking for something but haven’t yet been able to find it then please email me at jo@enchantedwords.co.uk and let me come up with the perfect valentines gift for your significant other... ( or others!) 💑👩‍❤️‍👩👨‍❤️‍👨
