Valentine’s Day? Let’s Talk Random Tuesdays

By: Alter's Gem Jewelry

Contrary to popular belief, not every woman considers Valentine’s Day the most important and romantic holiday of the year. Sure, some women want the whole shebang – candlelit dinner, wine, roses, declarations of undying love and a small black box to open that more than likely holds something shiny. But other women….well, they might think of it as a Hallmark Holiday, designed to get people to open their pocketbooks and cushion the jewelry retailers in the doldrums of winter.

For as special as Valentine’s Day may be for some, do we really need a holiday to give someone a special gift? Do you think that maybe a spontaneous gift for no reason at all might knock his or her socks off a little bit more? Consider this: diamond earrings on a random Tuesday. She’s frustrated after a long day at work, she needs to drive the kids to karate and gymnastics and there’s no food in the house so she has to hit the grocery store in between drop off and pick up. The kitchen is a mess from dinner and the laundry is piling up. You come up behind her, wrap your arms around her and present a little black box for her for open amongst all the chaos. Instant mood change, instant warm fuzzy, instant smile on her face. You love her….and those diamond earrings are just one way of showing her and, by surprising her, you’ve turned her chaotic night, while still chaotic, into a night of smiling for her. She catches the sparkle that shines off her ears in the rear view mirror and suddenly her jobs seem easy and the faster she gets them done, the faster she gets home to you. Jewelers may advertise huge Valentine’s Day sales, but consider how busy the season is. If you want the undivided attention from a professional jeweler that can help you find the perfect piece, or perhaps even custom design a piece yourself, don’t wait for Valentine’s Day. Find a random Tuesday, where you can take your time, learn what you need to know, and come home with that little black box in your pocket that is sure to make her night. You know what else might help? While she’s out running around with her new earrings on, get that kitchen cleaned up and start a load of laundry. Now that’s romance!
