How to properly give gifts to your wife
The task of giving a gift to a beloved woman is a difficult one. And not because she clearly lacks something. And not because the question "what should I give you?" can greatly offend her. The way the present is presented is important.
Rule number one - give the gift publicly, in a festive atmosphere, so that the woman can immediately, even if only secretly, show it off. The only exception can be a very intimate gift.
Any gift to a woman should be exquisitely wrapped. Look at how women feel about packaging when buying gifts for their friends and loved ones - ribbons, bows, beautiful paper, etc.
Rule number two - always wrap the gift nicely. It's great that stores now often have special departments for this.
When considering all the details of the gift, don't forget what your woman really likes. As her husband, you should know her tastes well, so don't give her a green blouse if she likes blue tones, or a kitten if she's loved parrots since childhood.
Rule number three - when buying a gift, follow the lady's tastes.
Even if the gift was very expensive, and from your point of view this is its advantage, you don't need to emphasize it. After all, your spouse is a queen, right? And therefore deserves only the best!
Rule number four - always remove the price tag (if the item has a warranty period, and the receipt may be needed in the future, keep these papers for yourself, warning your wife about it, and it's better to do it later, not in the midst of the celebration).
And don't be stingy with compliments, always tell your spouse how much you love and appreciate her - the saying that a woman loves with her ears didn't come out of nowhere.
By the way, these rules remain relevant at all times, no matter what you are celebrating.
The Language of Flowers
Of course, on Mother's Day, as well as any other holiday, you can't do without a bouquet of flowers. At the same time, it is important to understand that no matter how beautiful the composition offered in a flower shop may be, its meaning should signify your love and devotion, not something incomprehensible - many women have a good understanding of the meaning of one or another flower. Even if you have never thought about the language of flowers, it won't hurt to learn at least its basics.
The secret meaning of a particular flower has been attributed since ancient times. The birthplace of the language of flowers is considered to be the East, where the meaning was not only in the type and color of the plant, but also in how the giver holds the bouquet when giving it, whether it has thorns or not, and so on.
In Europe, this method of communication between lovers spread in the 18th century, along with the fashion for everything mysterious and mystical. Modern floristry, albeit implicitly, still maintains the tradition of paying attention to the meaning of a flower when composing bouquets. That's why a professional seller first asks the buyer who the bouquet is intended for.
Thus, red symbolizes love, pink - kindness and naivety, white - purity and innocence, blue - melancholy, purple - strong friendship, and yellow is considered the color of separation, although in Japan it means the sun and warmth.
The variety of a flower also has its own meaning. When selecting flowers for a bouquet, it is important to know what each plant symbolizes:
- Azalea - fragility and femininity;
- Alstroemeria - "You are beautiful!";
- White aster - love and grace;
- Lily - sincerity;
- Carnation - loyalty;
- Dahlia - fickleness;
- Gerbera - sympathy and flirting;
- Gypsophila - caution;
- Hydrangea - modesty;
- Jasmine - sensuality;
- Crocus - joy;
- Clover - happiness;
- Cactus - perseverance;
- Lavender - admiration and solitude;
- Lily of the valley - mutual affection;
- Mimosa - secrecy;
- Narcissus - attention to a loved one (contrary to all legends);
- Orchid - beauty;
- Peony - wedding;
- Snowdrop - hope;
- Tulip - youth and eroticism;
- Violet - innocence and dignity.
It is worth mentioning separately about roses - after all, women are given them most often.
So, a rosebud will mean innocence, and a fully bloomed flower - strong real feelings. As for the color, red rose signifies love and passion, white - purity of love, pink - faith in the future, yellow - joy and happiness (not infidelity and betrayal), cream - harmony and constancy.
By the way, if you want to show off your knowledge of flower meanings to your wife, but are afraid she may not understand the meaning of your floral message, attach a small flower "phrasebook" to it.
