Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas

Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas

As holiday season is barely behind us, we are forging ahead with the New Year.  Our next celebration is Valentine’s Day.  Valentine’s Day is not a major holiday and not everyone’s favorite, but we find it is a fun day to celebrate with family and especially with young kids.  Remember those days when cards and candies are exchanged at grade school?  Fun time!  After spending a lot of money on holiday gifts, who is ready to make another big gift purchase?  No one!  We compiled a list of gift ideas that are affordable and yet special for your friends and loved ones.  Really…it’s the thought that counts!

Flowers (Orchids):  Traditional and you cannot go wrong with these.  Flowers work for everyone.  Makes a great gift for any special lady in your life, mother/ mother in-law, sister, or friend.

Champagne (or any sparkling drinks):  Great to celebrate with your partner/spouse or group of friends.

Heart shaped jewelry:  Sweet and affordable pendants or silver or gold earrings.  Great for your sister, daughter or friends.

Small leather accessories: Cute wristlets or wallet key chains in a fun color or pattern, like this one from Kate Spade.  Great for any lady in your life.  For guys, a leather wallet is a great, useful gift.

Bath accessories:  Bath bombs in wonderful scents for those who enjoy taking a relaxing bath.  Here we have lavender scent from LUSH.

Pink shoes:  Pink tennis shoes for a chic lady who loves playing tennis.

Wireless earbuds: Great gift for both guys and girls.

Pink/red ties or scarves: Here we have a pink checkered tie, a fun and practical gift for him to wear to work.  Pink/red scarves would work for ladies.

Candies: Candies in a nice cup for friends or children.
