Valentine’s Day is a day of celebrating those you love, whether that is a partner, a family member, or a friend. It’s a sweet excuse to treat them to something special! With that being said, sometimes it’s hard to know what to get loved ones. Should you get them something traditional like flowers and chocolates, should you do something big like a new watch or should you get them something practical that they will use? These are a few gifts you can give the homeowners in your life that they’ll actually want for their home.

A Custom Welcome Mat

Etsy has some pretty incredible custom welcome mats that can say anything from your loved ones last name to a quote from their favorite tv show. This is so fun because it allows the homeowner to show their personality before their visitors even enter the door!

Candles and Soaps

Candles not only set a warm, cozy and sometimes romantic mood, they can make the space feel a lot more homey. Great candles can be found at Des Moines Mercantile. They are hand poured in these beautiful handmade pots that can be used later for a little planter or a large mug! Mercantile also sells the most amazing smelling handmade soaps from Locust Grove Farm. They are great on even the most sensitive of skin and are always switching up the yummy smells they are creating.

Flower Subscription

If you want to go a more traditional route, but with a little twist, set your loved ones up with a subscription so that their beautiful home is always filled with beautiful blooms! Wildflower has subscriptions that send your loved ones blooms as often as every week: the gift that keeps on giving, not just on Valentine’s Day!

Baking Kit

Families love baking together; it’s a great way to spend time together! Get the new homeowner in your life an apron that matches the colors of their kitchen so they can keep their clothes clean and keep with the aesthetic they have worked so hard to uphold. Then throw in a cute whisk, some baking cocoa from Chocolaterie Stam, a fancy new baking sheet and some quality time.

Have a wonderful day filled with celebrating all of the loves in your life!
