(PRWEB) February 4, 2005 -- Niki Owl continues to expand its product range and now is happy to announce new items for Valentines Day.
History of Valentines Day:
The origin of Valentine's Day is still a mystery, with most research pointing to both Christian and ancient Roman traditions. The Catholic Church currently recognizes at least three different saints by the name of Valentine or Valentinus, all of whom were martyred.
One legend holds that Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome, and upon defiance of Emperor Claudius II (who outlawed marriage after deciding that single men made better soldiers than those who were married and had families), performed secret marriages for young lovers. When this was discovered, Claudius ordered that Valentine be put to death.
According to another legend, Valentine sent the first 'valentine' greeting himself, to a young woman that visited him in jail during his confinement. Before his death, it is believed that he wrote her a letter, which he signed 'From your Valentine,' an expression that is still widely used today. Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is obscure, these stories certainly emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, heroic, and romantic figure, becoming one of the most popular saints in England and France by the Middle Ages.
Niki Owl is featured on a variety of original handmade greeting cards and handmade gifts and home decorations, which are available on www.nikiowl.com. The concept was born out of a hobby designing cards and gifts for friends and family, which was then taken a step further as Niki Owl products were made available to the public worldwide.
