I love giving gifts to people but sometimes I struggle finding the right or perfect gift.

So, I did some research and found some really cute and unique gifts to give this year. These can be used for Valentines Day, Anniversaries or just because gifts.

Matching Sweatshirts

This might be one of my favorite ideas I found.

You can buy a sweatshirt from anywhere but I would recommend somewhere that can embroider things on it such as Etsy or other customizable vendors. Then you are going to have your initial embroidered on your significant others sweatshirt and theirs on yours.

Then you have matching sweatshirts and a piece of each other with you whenever you wear it. This is perfect for long distance relationships or any relationship in general. Who doesn't want another sweatshirt?

Chick-Fil-A heart trays

If your significant other loves food, listen up!

Chick-Fil-A is selling select products of their food in heart shaped containers the whole month of February so if you need to celebrate early or late they are your go to!

The food choices are chocolate chip cookies, Chicken Minis and chicken nuggets. And the heart trays are reason enough to but the food they are SO cute. I will for sure be using myself one.

Keychain

This is a relatively inexpensive gift idea but can be personalized for your person.

Basically you just go on any Etsy shop and find a keychain that you like and customize it. You can make it say literally anything you want like anything.

This is perfect if you know your significant other uses a keychain for their keys or work ID so that they can take it with them everywhere they of and think of you.

Noticing little things like these really shows how much you care and how much attention you pay to your person!

Date Jar

This is a cheesy yet cute gift idea that also is relatively cheap.

All you need is a mason jar, slips of paper and a pen.

What you need to do is write date ideas on the slips of paper and put them in the mason jar. Once the jar is full, seal it up and give it to your person and then you have an endless amount of date ideas and things you can do together!

Photobook

This is something that can be made on so many websites. I know Costco, Chatbooks, Shutterfly and so many other vendors have these available for customization.

All you need to do is pick a theme, a book, a layout and insert your pictures and anything else you would want to say.

This gift is something they can keep and always look at and if you order through one of those above vendors you can ship it directly to them. So, this is perfect for all distance relationships.

Engraved wallet or card case

If you have noticed their wallet is old or falling apart get them a new one!

You can add a special touch by putting their initials on it or putting yours as well. This is such a simple gift but something they will use every single day!

Coupon book

Although this one is cheesy it is super cute and shows that you put a lot of effort into making something thoughtful and catered to your significant other.

Basically what you are going to do is write on pie es of paper: Exchange this coupon for ____

This can be anything you want one hug, a kiss, dinner on me, a back massage etc.

Practical Gift Cards

I always try to not give gift cards because I feel like they are something you give when you have no idea what to get. But there is a time when gift cards are truly meaningful. Be intentional!

Think gift cards for gas, groceries, where they get their hair done, their nail salon, the car wash they always go to, their favorite restaurant, a gift card for a store they would not usually shop at because it is expensive or because they don't like spending that type of money on themselves.

Restock their favorite products 

Guys, this one is for you!

The amount of products women use and the price of them is absolutely stupid. So, take your signifiant other shopping and get them all of their toiletries, makeup and whatever other products they may be out of or running low on.

This is a great way to show her you care about her. And, I feel like doing small things like this is something women pick up on, notice and love so DO IT!

Plan a whole Valentine's Day

Yes, you read that correctly. This is probably the biggest, most expensive and most time consuming gift but it is also probably the most rewarding and thoughtful one.

Plan a whole Valentine's Day, start to finish, meaning, starting with breakfast and spending the whole day with them doing both of your favorite things then ending the night with a nice dinner, gift exchange etc.

You obviously do not need to go overboard for this just spending the day with your significant other is a gift in itself so take this with a grain of salt!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
