Red..Not the Only Color of Love!

It’s February everyone, and love is in the air!! … Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and I’m sure that all of you unavailable men out there are scrambling for ideas for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift. This year think outside the red heart shaped box, and go for something unexpected. Ditch the flowers and candy, and invest in something that doesn’t wilt or go stale. A nice piece of jewelry will be with her for a lifetime, and there are many different symbols you can find to express your love.

Purple is the color of February. Amethyst is the birthstone for this month and it has a beautiful, regal purple color, and due to abundance, it is very affordable. You don’t have to be born in February to appreciate the beauty of Amethyst. Many people find it to have a very upscale, dramatic look.

If purple isn’t your color, try to go for a great symbol to represent your love. Circles often stand for eternity and longevity, and I’m sure we all know that a diamond is forever! Celtic love knots are also a popular symbol that is found in many different forms of modern jewelry. These patterns can be found generally in both gold and silver, and sometimes with diamond accents.
