Hello! I've finally gotten around to doing the Valentines Day posts that I was going to be doing! Now, this could be for a friend, girlfriend, mother, sister, etc. It's the personal meaning that counts, especially since Valentine's Day is all about love, romantic or not. I hope you like this post, and I hope you'll check back for the "What to get him for Valentine's Day" one as well!
- A gift that all girls love are flowers! Some girls will act like they don't like them, but, trust me, they all secretly want to be treated to some on Valentine's Day.
If you want to be a little more special than just ordinary flowers, you can go to this website: thebouqs.com, where the flowers are cut the day you order them from the side of an active volcano.
You can order an assortment of flowers, in case you want to go a different route than just roses.
These flowers are a little more on the steep side when it comes to how much they cost, but there's no shipping cost and if you sign up for emails right now, you get 10% off your purchase! They are a quality first company that even makes sure to give their employers benefits such as childcare, healthcare, and adult education. If you want to check them out, here's their website where you can also find their FAQ and the potential to get a $10 rebate if you order by a certain time! (Unfortunately, they only ship to the U.S. right now, but hopefully they'll be expanding to other countries soon!)
2. A couple of these items I found on etsy.com, which is a website where you can purchase homemade gifts and vintage items.
This heart pendant is on sale currently at a shop on etsy called littlepurpleboat. It's a handmade item that ships worldwide and would be a perfectly themed Valentine's gift for the perfect Valentine.
3. Another form of heart jewelry can be found on the shop EpicGlows, which has beautifully vibrant bracelets and necklaces, such as this one below:
Or this necklace:
These amazing pieces of jewelry are handmade and come in beautiful packaging:
They come with a UV torch keychain that is specially made to charge up the necklace so that it can vibrantly glow throughout the night. You can get a smaller shape or a larger one, as well as a thicker chain and a different color.
4. This item is from a store called gemagenta. It is a customized lunar phase charm that you can make to be the moon that you had your first kiss with your special person under, that you gave birth to your daughter under, that you met your best friend, etc. You get to put what goes "Under This Moon" and where the location was that everything happened, the date, and the store owner will do the rest for you!
The packaging for this item is just as adorable as it is, and whomever you're giving it to will love the sentimental value that the bracelet has! You can get it in either black or red string here!
5. If your girl loves vintage items, these vintage heart shaped trinket boxes could be perfect for her.
This one is from the store ChromaticWit, and has other trinket boxes just like it in the rest of the store.
This one is from Japan.
This one is from Western Germany.
And this one is from Norleans.
6. Another beautiful Valentine's gift is a charm bracelet. It can be customized or ordered as is and still be a beautiful memento of the holiday.
This bracelet is from the shop DLaPaix, who actually specializes in Mother's Day gifts, but, each bracelet can be customized for a specific person, based on their birthday month.
Each bracelet is made out of Swarovski crystal and can contain more than one birthstone in case you were getting a gift for someone that has children (you can have the birthstone of the children's birth months on it), or if you want it to have your birthstone as well. There's different types of bracelets, some with initials on them, others with different chains.
If you search around on etsy for a while you can also come up with one of a kind charm bracelets such as this beautiful pink glass pearl one from the store IgalardStore.
Or this one from the store MadameChicvintage.
Another creative object that I found on etsy was this heart shaped cushion that was actually featured in a Valentines list on the site.
It's from the shop AUFSCHNITTberlin that even has other cushions of intestines and meat products. So there's something if you want to go an unordinary route.
Thank you so much for reading so far, hopefully your Valentine's Day will be wonderful, whether you give each other gifts or not! Remember, the day should be spent with someone you love or something you love doing. Gifts are only a way to remember the day and to show someone that you care. Anything with a little bit of thought and sentimental value will make your girl happy.
Have a great February!
