10 Places to leave Love Letters for your husband.

Ten Places to leave love letters for your husband. Love letter ideas

Huge fan here of leaving love notes to our husbands’. It shouldn’t matter if it’s Valentines, a anniversary date, or his birthday. Leaving a sentimental love note is always special and uplifts the romantic spark for any couple.

 

Love is meant to be shared throughout the year. We didn’t fall in love with our spouses because it was a holiday. We most likely all fall in love on a day that we never thought would mean anything to us but essentially that spontaneous day changed our whole life.

Writing your Husband Love Letters.

67 Encouraging Things to say to your Husband.

My husband is not one to reciprocate the love note exchange or even get all mushy over it (actually my husband is not the mushy type at all) but I LOVE that he collects every love note I leave him. He has even printed out some emails I have sent out to him throughout the years and added to his secret crush stash.

 

By accident, I had found this “secret pile” of love notes and oh my goodness, it made my heart spill over.

 

To me that speaks so much more than words would from him. Just like him bringing me coffee every morning is not something I act mushy about but every time I see that green Starbuck straw from the corner of my sleepy eye or those mornings I can smell the dark roast of hot coffee coming towards me, my heart literally skips a beat. I never see him look so good to me!

 

Words is my expression of love. It’s part of who I am.

“But by the grace of God I am what I am” 1 Corinthians 15:10 Thought I would squeeze this in… 😉

 

The best thing for our spouses to receive from us is to express love to them that will uplift them, make them feel special, and that will add quality to our marriage.

 

If writing love notes will express your heart to your husband with true appreciation and in depth transparency to him then do it. DO it because along with the romantics sweet nothings you are whispering through a pen and paper, you will also be investing to build your marriage.

 

As you can see from my other posts such as Writing love letters to my husband, I believe in writing things that will encourage our men to be even greater men.

 

Leave scriptures that will speak life to them as a godly man. Write notes with love quotes that will make them reminisce of those things you love about them and your marriage. Create a letter that will not just let them know you love them but that you see those moments they try, they persevere, and those moments that they give back to you. Like when they bring you coffee in the morning or when they said something sweet about you and they thought you weren’t listening.

 

Here are 10 places I leave love letters for my husband to find

 

Mirrors: 

This is the most common area for me to leave love notes. Usually I tape small notes to the mirror so it is the first thing he sees when he gets up in morning.

 

Car: 

I would leave notes in his cup holder or even tape to the steering wheel so there is no way of missing it when he would get into his car to drive off to work. I know someone who got creative and had written on the car windows with window markers. I’ve never done this but I think it would be fun to leave a big “I LOVE U” right on the back window.

 

Shoes:

This one is actually a recent idea. Through reading a prayer plan for our husbands, the writer said to pray over our husbands shoes. To pray scripture about them walking in wisdom. I thought to myself; I should leave my husband scriptures of walking in the spirit in his shoes. Something he can see first thing in the morning and have in mind throughout the day. Or even just an encouraging note saying, “Every step you take, is a step closer to my heart.” Just made that up…..a little corny but you get the hint, right?!

 

Send a letter in the mail or email: 

I can become a little nostalgic so writing a handwritten letter and addressing it to my husband just seems absolutely sweet and unexpected to me. If you are not like me with the whole vintage feel, then send him a email. It’s just as special because it is from you! 

 

Dresser Drawers:

Sometimes the obvious places can seem a bit obvious but leaving a love letter in his sock drawer can be that special surprise when he needs it most!

Check out these 10 Romantic places to leave Love Letters for your Husband to find. Share on X

Home Office / Mancave: 

I like to leave corny jokes or corky love notes in these areas. My husbands home office and Mancave is his happy place so to leave something to give him a smirk in his happy place always makes me happy. Why should they have all the fun?!

 

A trail in the house: 

This is something you can make into a romantic date. Leave a trial of sticky love notes from where he is to where you want him to find you at. To make him work for it, leave cute clues on each sticky note. 

 

Pillow:

This is something I try to place before he goes to bed. I usually sneak ahead to bed and place a handwritten note on his pillow. It’s something I hope brings peace to him from a chaotic day of being a full time employee for a stressful job then completing the big job of being a husband to emotionally women and father to 5 little crazies. Anything to bring calmness to my hubby is always worth it even if it means leaving a love note every night on his pillow. 

 

Bible:

When I think of scriptures that remind me of my husband and the leader he has become for our family, I like to write them down, date the notecard and sometimes leave a sentence of why that scripture reminds me of him. Connect with your husband on a spiritual level by sharing the word of God with him. Next time he opens his bible to study the word, let him know you thank God for your marriage and for him when you read the word. 

 

Closet:

Get creative in this space. Punch hole the note so you can hang the love note on a hanger. Place it on the shirt hanger he may be wearing the next day. I would place notes in my hubby’s watch boxes or any other places on his side of the closet that he was bound to find.

    Since the beginning of this school year, I’ve been making lunches for my hubby and kids. I’ve been putting notes inside all of them, every day. One day, whilst prepping lunches (I must’ve been on a roll) I stuck a note inside mine as well. It was a nice surprise when I went to eat.

    As I’m folding his work clothes (he’s in construction) I say a prayer for each days’ outfits and leave a little love note in his pants pocket, or in a pair of rolled up socks. His work boots or lunch pail. I loved finding them all together in a pile in his nightstand drawer. It made my heart happy to know he saved them. 😍

    Carmen, my wife and I leave notes (we bought a stack of index cards just for leaving notes around the house) for each other all the time! We leave them by the coffee pot, on the nightstand, in the sock, drawer, etc. The note may be a simple “I Love You” or it may be something a little deeper. The best thing about this for us is that it is a fun way to remind each other how much they are loved and appreciated.

    This is so sweet and definitely something I need to start doing for my hubby. I put little notes in my girls’ lunch boxes from time to time, but never thought about doing the same for my hubby.

    Carmen, this is such an encouraging post. I am going to try at least of these this week and see how he responds. I did this years ago but honestly haven’t even thought about it lately. Thanks for the reminder to show our husbands love in small unexpected ways.

    I love this! I have been looking for ways to come up with love notes. My husband loves receiving affirmations. Putting a love note in his bible is a great idea. Thanks for the tips!

    I always send my letters to him in his lunch or his wallet! My husband always has at least one of my letters to him in his wallet too… They get so old and tattered but I think it’s so sweet. I date them and it’s crazy the last one I found I think was from 2013. 😅 I’m definitely going to write him a new one for his wallet this Valentine’s day!
