Summary of this article
 
I'll be on my vacation for a few days, but I have prepared some Tips for you that should get your creative juices flowing.
  
"Love Notes" to your spouse are a 5 minute effort that can be a life changer. Buy a pack of note cards, inspirational cards, 3 x 5 cards, or just a pad of plain paper.
  
Pick a regular time once a week when you will write the note. Then hang onto it for a random amount of time. Surprise is part of the fun. Hide it in a place that is unique each time but will surely be found.  
  
Before writing I suggest you put your hand on your heart. (Just learned about this recently.) This helps you tap into your deepest feelings for your spouse. Write the note. Here are some suggestions for what the content could be:
  
* Expressing Love
* Offering Respect
* Gratitude or Thanks for ...
* Appreciation for ...
* Affirmation of ...
* An Apology for ...
* A Joke
* An Inspiration
* A dream or goal
* Your Choice
  
Try it, you'll like it.

Where To Leave Love Notes

 

By Sheri & Bob Stritof, About.com

 

It appears that the most popular places to leave love notes is somewhere in your kitchen or bathroom.

 

Regardless of where you leave or hide a love note for your spouse to find, writing the note and taking time to find a unique place for it says loudly that you are still very much in love with your spouse.

 

Here are room-by-room suggestions for where to leave love notes for your spouse to find. Contributions from many friends and writers.

 

Where to Leave Love Notes - - Bathroom

 

· Use "bath time crayons for children" and write little love notes on the shower wall or door in red.

 

· I've written on toilet paper a few squares down and then re-rolled it.

 

· On the bathroom mirror.

 

· Tucked between the towels.

 

· On her makeup tray.

 

· I've carved I love you in her bath soap.

 

· Inside a manicure set.

 

· Taped to the inside of the toilet lid.

 

· On the bathroom scale.

 

· Taped around medication bottle.

 

· I know that my husband shaves every morning, faithfully. The night before I will go into the bathroom and put the love letter into an envelope, write "For Steve" on the front and tape it to the mirror.

 

· Steam up a shower room mirror and leave him/her a love note, hearts kisses etc. When your partner gets in and steams up the bath, the message reappears.

 

· Post-it note on the soap, shampoo, or shower gel.

 

· In the foggy mirror while they are taking a shower or bath.

 

· I've even placed rolled up notes in her tampons. 

 

· Add your own ideas
