You can leave behind a fresh flower hamper at the doorsteps of your girlfriend with a love note in it. Soon she will be on the cloud nine. Here are some New Year ideas to wish your love in a special way.

• Send your loved one a personalised coffee mug with your photos on it. This would make a wonderful gift for your better half. Your sweetheart will think of you whenever he or she will have a sip of a coffee from the mug.
  
  
• Wake up an artist within you. Gather some fabric paints and brushes. Do fabric painting and come up with a personalised t-shirt for your dear. You can paint his or her zodiac sign on it.
  
  
• Want to motivate your wife to come up with some mouth watering recipes? Gift a recipe book of some famous chef and enjoy finger licking food everyday.
  
  
• Diamond is enough to end the year on a happy note. Gift your wife a diamond ring or a diamond pendant. See her happy through out the year.
  
  
• Make a New Year resolution just for your lady love. If your excessive smoking annoys her then just make a resolution that you will quit smoking. She will not ask for anything else.
  
  
• Does she like to read novels? Know what she likes to read and gift a novel, a non-fiction book or a magazine subscription. She might be dying to read Chetan Bhagat's books or else she might be keen to subscribe for a fashion magazine. You can gift a subscription of a pregnancy magazine if your wife is a mom to be.
  
  
• When did the last time you take your wife on a date? It can be a nice surprise gift. Ask your wife out on a date like you asked a few years back. Candle light dinner is still the best gift to woo your spouse.
