Stunning Valentine’s Day Gifts for Her This Year
Here are my top 10 gifts for her.
Best Artsy Gift: Aura Carver Digital Picture Frame
Nothing gets more personal than the memories you two share.
Aura Carver’s 10.1-inch WiFi Digital Picture Frame is the perfect countertop piece to remind her of all the beautiful moments in your relationship. Throw in a few silly ones for good measure!
It’s as easy as it can be to set up, too. Just download the Aura app (available for iOS and Android) on your phone, then load up all the photos and videos you want.
There’s even a built-in speaker on the back of the frame, meaning you can edit a slideshow with her favorite songs for an extra personal touch.
Best Beauty Gift: Lizush 9 Piece Relaxing Spa Set
If your girl needs some time to herself, this Lizush spa set has her name on it.
This kit includes everything she needs for a relaxing bath and a little TLC, including a scented body scrub, body oil, a clay mask, and more.
Lizush’s herbal-infused products are all-natural and sulfate-free, so they’re as easy on the skin as they are on the nose.
If she isn’t a big fan of lavender, you can find this set in a citrus scent, too.
Best Jewelry Gift: Custom Engraved Sterling Silver Coordinate Bar Necklace
For a Valentine’s Day gift that will make her heart melt, this EVE’S ADDICTION custom engraved necklace is the perfect pick.
Not only is it a cute piece of jewelry, but it’s also personalized to your relationship. Where did you meet? Where did you get engaged? Where were you the first time you told her you loved her?
Pick a spot that holds meaning to you, look up the coordinates on your favorite map app, and get a hold of this fantastic, thoughtful Valentine’s present.
Meaningful Valentine’s Day Gifts for Her
Now for some presents that are perhaps even a bit more thoughtful:
Best Luxury Gift: Lunya Washable Silk Long Sleeve Pant Set
Silk pajamas. Need I say more?
This set from Lunya is as comfortable as it looks. And it doesn’t have the usual temperament you’d find with silk clothing; that’s because it’s made from 100% washable mulberry silk. It can be hand or machine-washed in cold water without a fuss.
This button-down shirt and pull-on pants set comes in five colors, including Otium Tan, Immersed Black, Deep Blue, and the limited edition Calliope Wine and Swan White.
I’d say this makes for a more meaningful gift that she’ll wear well beyond Valentine’s Day.
Best Foodie Gift: Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2
If the woman in your life loves coffee or tea (or maybe has a sweet tooth), I’m willing to bet she also hates having to reheat it in the microwave.
That’s where Ember’s Temperature Control Smart Mug comes in. This smart gift keeps her beverage between 120 and 145 degrees Fahrenheit for up to 80 minutes on a full charge or all day long while resting on its charging coaster.
It’s even advanced enough to enter sleep mode and save some battery life when her coffee runs dry, or she hasn’t touched it in two hours.
Plus, with a wide range of colors and metallic finishes, you can pick one she’s sure to love.
Best Self-Care Gift: NEW-AIRIA Smart Scent Diffuser
Who doesn’t love a fresh-scented home?
Give her the gift of relaxation with Febreeze’s NEW-AIRIA Smart Scent Diffuser. It covers up to 1500 square feet of your home with a single device, and each scent cartridge lasts up to five months.
Set a fragrance intensity level between one and 10, schedule it to smell more at certain times of day, and swap out scents at will; this diffuser sets the mood right from your smartphone.
Best Budget Gift: Custom Soundwave Art
If you two have a favorite song or quote, get it immortalized with a custom plaque, photo, and message.
Every time she sees it on the mantle, counter, or dresser, she’ll fall in love with you all over again.
It’s personalized, stylish, and even comes engraved with a QR code that leads you to the song you choose.
You can choose from a wooden light base, acrylic plaques, or frames in black or gold.
