Valentine’s Day is around the corner… If you are looking for gift ideas to mark or celebrate your special occasion on this special day, below are some ideas. The way I look at it, there are two ways (only two? you can argue) to approach gifting for Valentine’s, one is sort of romantic gift for those who are younger and still have that energy wanting to make that day exciting and memorable; the other is the kind of gift for those that have been celebrating many Valentine’s Days together, who may prefer a romantic but quieter day/evening but knowing that their other halves are still caring much for them. Hopefully, I’ll cover both.
Chocolate, candies, gift basket, jewelry and flowers are classics but still good for gifting. The only thing is remember to select the one that looks precious and special — just like the other one meant to you. Let’s start with some sweets for this sweet day.
XOXO Chocolate Dipped Strawberries Delight
If you’re looking for a sweet gift, these XOXO chocolate dipped strawberries should be one of the best. Why? Because of its look and the attention to details provided by the maker Harry & David. The (large) berries are dipped in premium milk chocolate and rich dark chocolate and decorated with white X’s and O’s. The last time I received it, the box looked so beautiful and the chocolate-covered berries tasted yummy. You know what, my judgement might have been clouded on that day.
If you are gifting your mom on Valentine’s Day, this is good, too.
Dozen Gourmet Dipped Fancy Berries
Like the XOXO chocolate above, these Gourmet Dipped Berries look great and taste even greater. I have ordered these to my mother at least twice for Mother’s Day, and she’s been thrilled. The berries are awesome, very fresh, sweet and large.
OK, enough about sweet stuff, how about something quite surprising but romantic?
Reasons I Love You Stones
These small silver stones come in a red suede and cute little bag. Each stone has “I love You” on one side and a reason (because you love me, because of your great smile, or because I just do etc.) on the other side. You can use the whole bag or just choose some stones that you like. You can also be creative with this and reveal the stone one by one while spending time with her. Sometimes, as a man, it’s hard to articulate the reasons you love your other half. If so, just let the stones speak for yourself.
What I Love About You by Me Book
In the same family with the ‘I Love You’ stones above, this little hard cover book contains fill-in-the-blank lines for you to write down what you love about your special friend. Again, I know as a man you may find it hard to talk or write about emotion and feeling stuff – I hear you, but why not try something different, at least once because remember women love by ears. It’ll worth it, and you will have a romantic and memorable Valentine’s Day.
Cute Couple Pillowcases
I really love the idea and intimacy of this gift. It’s the kind of thing that brings joy days or even months later when looking at it. There are several variations such as “Love You Madly,” “Say I Love You,” “Catch My Love” or “From My Heart to Yours”… Each set of two (30 x 20 inches – 75 x 50 cm) fits most standard and queen size pillows with cotton and polyester mix fabric. All feature two cute “stick figure” characters with a love message. Check out pillowcases yourself!
Cute Couple Coffee Mugs
In addition to the pillowcases above, you can find the same cute stick figures and design pattern on a set of coffee mugs. Not only for Valentine’s Day, those coffee mugs (and pillowcases above) are perfect gifts for anniversary and wedding. I bought a set for my mom and dad when we celebrated their 35th anniversary. The design looks a bit young for their age I guess, but we had a good laugh, and I saw them using those mugs since then. Well worth it!
Luxurious Spa Gift Basket
Most girls/women like spa gift baskets, and since I happen to like lavender, so I just introduce it here, but you get the idea. This Lavender Spa Gift Basket is stuffed with elegant lavender scented spa products, including lavender scented body spray, bubble bath, body scrub, bath salts, moisturizing lotion, body wash, room spray, relaxation candles and more, so check it out yourself. Hopefully, you may get to share these products with your special someone.
Cuccio Naturale Spa to Go Kit
In the same family with the gift basket mentioned above, this Cuccio spa set won’t get you or your special one disappointed. Why I list it here? Because I happen to be gifted one set with the honey and milk scent, and I came to love the product. Also, it’s recommended in some health/spa magazine that I’ve read. The spa kit has a nice, warm scent and contains body butter, fine grit sea salt, cuticle conditioning stick and free spa elixir.
If She Has Foot Pain, Back Pain, Neck Pain …
Well, I started this website to post gift ideas that help people with certain problem such as frequent headache, foot pain, back pain finding or gifting products that alleviate or solve the problems. Putting asides all the sweets, bells and whistles of this Valentine’s day, if your special someone experiences the said pains, check out the following links. Chocolate may be sweet, but problem solving gifts show that you care.
I’m now not certain where you are getting your info, but good topic.
Thank you for the information.
