Tice Tansil doesn't think of himself as a superhero, but he has saved the day many times. Is he a police officer? A fire fighter? No, he founded a Web site that specializes in romantic gifts. And he has rescued many a husband and boyfriend from experiencing the wrath of a woman who might otherwise have received a mixer for her birthday.Romanceher.com http://www.romanceher.com/platinumroses.htm features romantic, special and unique gifts that will leave a lasting impression. "Our most popular item is the platinum rose," says Tansil. He explains that to create this one-of-a-kind keepsake, a real rose is preserved and covered in platinum, a beautiful gray metal more precious and rare than gold or silver. Each one is unique and each is handmade through a 40-step process.
The Web site offers a variety of creative flower-themed gifts, including chocolate roses, gold and silver roses, hand carved soap roses and glazed orchids. But there is also a wide selection of other gifts.
The bath and body section of the site has a great selection of products to pamper her, including body teas, oversized tea bags with soothing herbal ingredients for a luxurious bath; bath oils and soaps; lovely scented candles; and more.
And if you need some help expressing your feelings, "love notes," a tin of individual messages of love, romance, lust and more can help. Tuck a message into her purse, under a coffee cup, in a drawer, or in her coat pocket to bring surprise and delight into her day.
Jewelry is always a good gift, and the Web site offers some inspired twists on traditional options. For starters, there are several styles of sterling silver bracelets that can be engraved with a name, a monogram, date or a special message.
Sterling silver "poesy pendants" are another way to let her wear your affection. These pendants feature classical artworks like Edgar Degas' Study of a Young Ballerina or well-known symbols such as yin/yang or quotes from well-known literature like this from William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet: "With love's light wings did I o'er perch these walls; For stony limits cannot hold love out."
"We try to have something for everyone," says Tansil. "We're in our eighth year of making it easy to find romantic gifts, creative ideas, and suggestions for that special person as well as products to improve your relationships."
The perfect gift is waiting at www.romanceher.com.
