ATRL Valentine's Day Carnations: 17th carnation-Forrest
Welcome everyone, to this new fun and exciting idea that I decided to do; almost as a spin-off to Patrick's, ATRL Secret Santa gift exchange. I'm hoping to bring some excitement and positivity to the board, in lieu of so much problems we are experiencing here.

Every February 14, across the United States and in other places around the world, candy, flowers and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of St. Valentine. But who is this mysterious saint, and where did these traditions come from? Find out about the history of this centuries-old holiday, from ancient Roman rituals to the customs of Victorian England.

I am proud to host a Valentine's Day Carnation distribution here on ATRL. How will it work? SIMPLE!
Everyone has admiration for someone, in whatever capacity it may be in (as a lover, friend, secret crush, etc). You can acknowledge that admiration by giving them a carnation, which I will deliver to them via PM and will post them in here. I will have a "Valentine's Day Shop" for you all to select your gifts from, which will be found on the first page of this thread. Things that will be up for selection: Flowers, bears, chocolate, bears, and more. People giving gifts will also be responsible for creating their card that will accompany the carnations. You can put who gave them the gift if you want or if you want to remain anonymous, you may do that and I shall keep your identity a confidential unless you say otherwise. NO BASHING via carnations will be permitted
Once the store has been posted (which will be soon) you can select the gifts and then submit your card with it. KEEP MY THREAD POSITIVE AND RID OF DRAMA, I will delete posts accordingly. This has been created for fun and nothing else. Yes, gifts for the banned will be available as well and their gifts will just be posted in here for them to "view as a guest."
