Irish
The Irish are best known for the Claddagh Ring. This was given to the woman as a sign of faith and love by the man when he went away for a while - perhaps to war, perhaps to the New World to make his fortune.

Ta gra agam ort
I love you (in Gaelic)


Italian
Italy has historically been a culture of arranged marriages, with parents making deals while the chidren were 14 or younger. However, when love blossomed on its own, it was often accompanied by music. Play your love a song on the guitar, piano, recorder, or pick out a favorite song just for you two.

Japanese
In Japan, thereīs a special origami which creates the loverīs knot. This origami seals the message tightly within, and by writing or making a brushmark on the outside, it can always be told if anyone else tried to read it because the origami could never be folded to exactly match afterwards.

Native American
Dreamcatchers are traditional wall hangings in Native American cultures, which are often hung in the bedroom but can be hung anywhere. They are to catch the dreams of a person and hold them near. Give your love a dreamcatcher, to show them that you are interested in what they dream about - and that hopefully it is you!
