In today’s Valentine’s Day Gift Guide, we’ve included everything from that perfect gift for your husband to that special piece of jewelry for your daughter. Whether you’re looking for the cutest coffee mug for your BFF or a special way to remind your kids or grandkids that you’re thinking of them, we want to help you make that happen!
Gifts for Her
Whether you’re buying for your adult daughter, daughter-in-law, Galentine, or senior adult mom, we’ve got ideas we think you’ll love! For an adult daughter, I think this fuzzy sock set is just perfect! For a daughter-in-law, I love this shower steamer set that is made with real flowers and infused with lavender essential oils! (Similar, less expensive option HERE.)
For your gal pals, Galentines, Bible Study, or Book Club girls, how about this pretty flower lip balm that goes on clear and reacts with the PH in your lips to create your perfect shade of pink? It’s vegan and features a real chrysanthemum inside! If you’re buying for a group, break up this set of 6 heart-shaped spatulas or this set of pretty hand lotions and tie a fun tulle bow on each before gifting. Bonus points if you attach cute gift tags like THESE from Joy Creative Shop. (Take 10% off with code ENB10!)
Buying for your BFF, or another special woman in your life? How about personalizing this metallic custom woven friendship bracelet or getting her this ceramic candy heart mug and saucer (in pink or purple)? It has a special message on the saucer and at the bottom of the cup! (Click through and scroll down HERE to see!) Bonus points if you fill it with her favorite candy!
Gifts for Him
Men are not always the easiest to pick out gifts for, but we rounded up some great ideas! Consider surprising him with golf balls adorned with hearts, combining his love for sports with a touch of romance. For the fishing enthusiast, a personalized fishing lure would make for a thoughtful gift. If he has a fun sense of style, heart-patterned socks could add a playful touch to his wardrobe. For the Star Wars aficionado, a themed art print is sure to be a hit. This book detailing what you love about your relationship is a heartfelt gesture that he’s sure to treasure.
I’m getting Bob this XOXO mini waffle maker for Valentine’s Day because we L🩷VE to eat waffles on Saturday mornings! Get ready, honey, because I’m upgrading you from toaster waffles! 😂🧇
Gifts for Kids
I’ve only been a LouLou for about a year, but I am ob-sessed! Y’all, I swore I wouldn’t be that grandma, but I’ve become her! Regardless of the age of your grandbabies, I know you want to remind them how much you love them this Valentine’s Day!
If you’ve got a baby (like me!), how about this darling sensory play gym that you wrap around the bar of a car seat or stroller? Got a toddler or two? Personalize this Reasons Why We Love You book or keep their little hands busy with this darling wooden puzzle. For elementary kids, I love the idea of personalizing this candy jar and filling it with their favorite candies. (With mom’s permission first, of course!)
This fun and inexpensive personalized cereal bowl is perfect for preteen boys, and these adorable personalized bracelets are so cute for preteen girls. If you’ve got teenage grandkids, how about this chocolate game console for a boy and this pretty XOXO hair claw clip for a girl?
