A Valentine’s Day Gift Guide


February 14th is right around the corner and the hunt for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift has begun. Handwritten cards, stuffed bears and bouquets of flowers are all fair game but, if you want to kick it up a notch this year, this guide will be your saving grace. After all, it is the season love and whoever it is, they deserve to be spoiled.

Below is a list of gift ideas that would completely win her or him over.

2. Candle by Iti

You can’t go wrong with a good candle. They are always a fail-proof gift idea, especially around the season of love. Every time it is lit, they will be thinking of you and love truly will be in air! They have a collection of wood wick candles and they have a range of scents from coffee beans and vanilla to jasmine and lavender and lemongrass and rosemary and much more.

6. Terrarium from Petrikor

If 2020 taught us anything, it’s to be grateful for those that make our life better and while these gift ideas will definitely make this Valentine’s Day better, never underestimate the power of a homecooked meal or a handwritten note to make your partner or family member or even yourself feel loved and appreciated. After all, things that money can’t be bought are worth the most!
