Valentine's Gifts For Her, Him, Your Friends, Your Family...
Valentine’s Day is an expression of love for everyone this year. Below our round-up of gifts everyone might enjoy!
These hold a special place in the heart of our kitchen cabinet. We received this set of four bowls as a Valentine’s gift and think they making a charming gift set for friend and family. And in fact Williams Sonoma sells an entire dinnerware set in this pattern here.
“Pour it out” - if your girlfriends and your mom aren’t already glued to Season 2 of all the goings-on Serenity, this will get them started. The first in Sherryl Woods’ series about life for three longtime girlfriends and how they face everything…together - even Mary Vaughn. Margarita night keeps them talking - around V Day might be a time for all of us “pour it out.”
Very pretty. Chosen by ONE of our editors. Secretly, we think she just wants this as a gift. We get the hint!
If your friend or significant other is a plant parent…or thinking of becoming one, here’s the perfect starter plant for Valentine’s. Or just a great way to say “I love you” and have it last.
A pretty set of 4 champagne flutes. If you gift these, don’t forget the champagne!
We heart this on the stove - warms up any kitchen and says love is all around us at the same time. Plus Le Creuset lasts and lasts.
Remember the editor who wanted the swan necklace…pretty sure she wants these too. WE GET THE HINT! Also they are very attractive and would be perfect for that special someone.
Fun. Pink. And a break from instagram. But still capturing your life moments frame by frame.
Made in France, burning off notes of cinnamon, caramel and apple and an attractive Keith Haring design…is the heart running towards you? Away? Or just on the move. You decide depending on the recipient!
Adorable. Fluffy. Hop into these.
There’s always room for another bottle opener - this one burnishes your bar cart with a heart. Lovely as an “extra” present attached through a ribbon wrapped around, say, a bottle that requires being opened?
Cute. Practical. Use them to stir in a spoonful of sugar or to plunge into that ice cream sunday we hope you’re having for Valentine’s Day dessert!
Yum. Classic! We LOVE Venchi chocolate and their beautiful packaging. We really don’t have enough chocolate on this list but this one is pretty and delicious!
The perfect cookies for the perfect V Day - light and airy. Light that “Running Heart” candle above and put these on a platter. (If you’re not having a sundae.)
Say I love you every day with morning coffee in these red-and-white numbers!. Lovely mugs to brighten up your kitchen.
A gift with a message - more like a greeting card as objet d’art.
This made us laugh. Wrap and put on top of pizza…
If he or she loves Snoopy, this is practical, cute and we heart it!
When you want the room to light up with love, glow with hearts…these send the message and a lovely glimmer, too.
CARDS - say "I love you” six different ways…
T-SHIRTS - We are particularly partial to t-shirts here, especially funny ones. But sometimes the right sentiment can be worn right over…your heart.

February 13th is approaching - the annual celebration of Galentine’s Day. “What’s Galentine’s Day? Oh, it’s only the best day of the year.” - Leslie Knope
Without further ado, 13 of our favorite items for your best gal pals.
Three adorable glass jar candles for your bestie - shaped like macarons, by way of a glassmaker. All rose scents. Don’t eat them - just light them!
No caffeine, no sugar…but all red velvet taste. Rooibos is mixed with chocolate, beet root and vanilla for a cupcake…in your teacup.
Macarons for real - start to finish kit to make your own, fresh at home.
Thoughtful, pretty, chic - anything from John Derian we love - but this journal will have everything coming up roses for your gal.
I mean obviously your gal pals already look pretty great. But who wouldn’t want a few more tips to achieve perfection…the lazy way.
A pretty at home face roller to gently massage wrinkles right away. Recommended that you keep both items in the fridge.
There’s no better friend gift than a massage right at your feet. Literally, at your feet. We’ve gifted this zippy platinum MIKO number to friends, family and, to be honest, ourselves. And it’s great. Slides right under an armchair or coffee table when done.
So pretty. Buying for self. Will have to buy again for friend!
A good t-shirt is always a fun gift. Hello Kitty, timeless.
A black tea blend perfect for February - rose petals, chocolate and vanilla to create a friendly caffeinated cuppa for your best gal pal. And - a pretty tin!
