Valentines Day

Set of four coasters...£30

Well we are half way through January already and love is sneaking into the air. Valentine's day 14th February is now less than a month away!!

Legend tells us it began because Valentine was imprisoned for performing weddings for Roman soldiers who were forbidden to marry under Roman Empire rule in circa 27bc. In the 5th Century there was a Saint Valentine who was a Christian martyr. These two figures have shaped how we celebrate it in the modern age.

Valentines Day is now celebrated throughout the world, with many people exchanging cards, sweets, chocolate, gifts and flowers with their special 'valentine'.

Have you got a special someone in your life? Or maybe you would like a special someone. We have a lovely range of gift ideas for you, here are some of them....

Fused glass bowl with copper encapsulated hearts.... £35

Mirror with glass tiles spelling love... £55

Bunting with love... £10

There are many other local independent traders on Hanover Road and Victoria Road offering things for Valentines celebrations. We are really hoping people of Scarborough visit local independent shops throughout 2016 so why not start with Valentines?!

I would like to challenge you all, no matter where you live... This week visit one independent local shop and spend £5. It will make a massive difference to your local economy. You can then let us know where you have been so we can visit there too.

Why not try Amelia's Chocolates and Violet Lux for great gift ideas for Valentines....

  

Thank you all for reading today and we will be back next week.
