Are you struggling to find the perfect gift for your perfect significant other? Are you looking for something that says ‘I love you’ without being too over the top and mushy-gushy? If so, this list is for you!
It’s that time of the year again and love is in the air! It’s a good time to reflect on why you fell in love with your partner and to be appreciative of them. Don’t let gifts overshadow what the day is really about, though. A gift can simply be an added bonus, but don’t feel pressured to run out and buy something. Kind and simple gestures of love work just as well, too!
If you do want to get your significant other a gift, here is a list of the best ones to get him or her for Valentine’s Day! Note that flowers are not on the list. If your girl likes flowers, it goes without saying that you should pick some up for Valentine’s Day!!
Gifts for Her:
1. Jewelry
Nothing quite says I love you like jewelry, right?? Kidding! But, it is a nice gift for V-day, especially if your girlfriend/wife likes necklaces, earrings, or rings. Uncommon James has some reasonably priced jewelry and even has a separate page just for Valentine’s Day right now. Click the photo below to be taken directly to the page:
2. Mani, Pedi, Massage, or Spa Day
This is the perfect gift for the woman who is always on the go and could use some time to relax. Giving her some ‘me time’ can be a great way to show her that you love her and that you care about her well-being and happiness.
3. Chatbooks
Chatbooks are a good way to show your partner that you love them and a great way to remember all of the amazing memories you’ve had together! Chatbooks are a collection of your own photos and captions and make a great addition to any coffee table.
4. Bathtub Tray Caddy
This is a good gift for those that like to pamper themselves at home! Buy her favorite book or bottle of wine to tie it all together.
5. Where We Met Map
This is a cute idea to remind her of where you both met or fell in love. It’s a perfect addition to any wall!
Gifts for Him:
1. Personalized Leather Bracelet by Swanky Badger
I can confirm firsthand that this is a great Valentine’s Day gift! I got this for my boyfriend 2 years ago and he wears it pretty much every single day. And let me tell you, he is NOT the jewelry type of guy, or the type to wear anything on his wrist, but this is so sleek and subtle that he actually loves it. And trust me, I was nervous and hesitant at first, but it turned out to be the best V-day gift, especially because you can personalize it with your own special message inside.
2. Personalized Socks
These are always fun gifts to give! I got these for my boyfriend a few years ago and he was obsessed. I got our dog’s face on them, but personalize them however you like (you could even add your own face lol). Either way, these are a great gift that are sure to make him laugh.
3. Tickets to an Event
I LOVE doing experience gifts, especially for the guy that ‘never’ needs anything (we all know the type, right). So, skip the material possessions and go for something fun near you. You can try tickets to a sporting event, museum, comedy show, magic show, movie night out, or concert!
4. Personalized Golf Balls or Golf Ball Marker
If your boyfriend loves to golf, these are the perfect gift ideas. When he’s out all weekend playing golf, what better way to remind him that you love him!?
5. Personalized Desk Organizer
This is a great gift for the work-from-home guy. If your partner works from home, you’ve probably seen just how messy his desk can get throughout the week. Here’s your chance to make the place look more clean and give him a nice, thoughtful gift too!
