Everyone knows the basic Valentine's Day gifts- chocolate, teddy bears, and roses. But after years of the same thing, sometimes it's time to think outside the box. Here's a list of things you can do outside of the Valentine's Day aisle.
1. Bake something
GiphyFood is a must, but instead of candy, make them something from the heart! Even if it doesn't turn out exactly like you expected, its the though that matters.
2. A massage
GiphyValentine's Day should extend beyond February 14, and this is the perfect way to do it! Allow them to relax and get some alone time while keeping you in the back of their mind.
3. A handwritten letter
GiphyDitch the cards section and write your own card this year! It saves money and it shows you put the time in to make it by hand.
4. Clothes
GiphyThis sounds like a weird one, but getting them something you know they'll look good in (and reminding them of it when you give it to them) will ensure they'll be flattered and get good use out of it.
5. Phone charger
GiphyYou can make anything romantic, and this is a perfect example. Add a caption like "to keep us connected no matter what" or "you energize my life" and you've got a gift that is cute and practical.
6. A pillow/blanket
GiphyNot only is this gift always needed, but it will be perfect for end of the night snuggles!
7. Cook their favorite meal!
GiphyInstead of buying chocolate, go buy a nice juicy steak or whatever they love to eat! And the best part- you get to enjoy it too!
