Love is the small things
It may sound like a total cliché, but it is no less truthful: Love is in the small things. Love shows that you care, you listen, and you pay attention. Love is every unexpected kiss or hug, every cup of tea on a cold afternoon, every waking her up with the smell of fresh coffee, and holding her hand while watching her favorite movie again and again and again…

Budget-friendly Valentines gifts for her
Photo explosion box: memories and surprises
It is a lovely gift, full of surprises, but most importantly full of your memories together. The price is very affordable but choose those photos wisely. In the center, you can add a heart-shaped keychain, like You stole my heart, or maybe a necklace with your name. She will love it undoubtedly! Adding the effort of choosing and prepping the photographs, it is a perfect romantic gift, because it has it all: personalized, emotional, and a bit hand-made, which adds extra value! This very thoughtful gift will not cost you more than $30.
Photo Cube: One photograph = 1,000 emotions
Photos always add a touch of romance and make every gift unforgettable and very personal. That is the main reason why you can go wrong by choosing this photo box and just adding 5 of your best photos. If you would like to make it even more special and romantic add a heart-warming message to each photograph. You can write yourself, make it super personal, add some of your nicknames, and your jokes, or just share your feelings. But, if you are not quite a wordsmith, then simply, ask Google for help and present your lady with a lovely memory of your love.
We chose this wooded one because is very simple, yet so stylish and vintage, but there are many options depending on her taste and your budget, from $10 to $40.
Lego flowers: Building romance together
Sometimes waking up childhood memories is the best gift you can give to someone! So, treat your special someone to one of these amazing Lego flower sets that are as fun to build as they are cute. Not only are they a unique twist on traditional flowers, but they also bring a touch of playful creativity on Valentine’s Day. And you can make it a date night, pour a glass of wine and a wine chocolate! A match made in heaven!
There are many sets you can choose from, the traditional red roses, a bouquet that is a colorful mix, or the trending mini succulents gardens. The price goes from $35 up!
Lingerie or silk pajamas: Sexy or cozy and sweet?
If you want to present your lady with a gift that is a combination of luxury, comfort, romance, and a bit of intimacy, then a set of silk lingerie is the best choice. And to be honest, that is also a gift to yourself. If you think that your relationship is not at that level, then swap the lingerie with a pair of silk pajamas, every girl’s best friend. These gifts show thoughtfulness, as they demonstrate personal taste and show that you know her. The delicate fabrics and beautiful designs of lingerie or silk pajamas can make anyone feel special and cherished, especially on Valentine’s.
To make this gift even more extra, spray them with your perfume!
The price range here is all up to you, starting from only $10. You can choose something very sexy and provocative, or something sweet and cozy, like festive pajamas with hearts on them!
Valentine basket: All her favorites in one basket
One of the most trending gifts for this 14th of February is the Valentine’s Day basket, and they are truly an amazing choice. These baskets stand out because they combine creativity, heartfelt sentiment, uniqueness, personal touch, and thoughtfulness into one cute package with a big red bow. You can order one only, already pre-made or you can hand-pick your lady favorite. We vote for the second option, to be more personalized.
A must-have in this Valentin’s gift basket are: chocolates, her favorite candle, cup, mug or a Stanley, cozy socks or blankets, spa or beauty products, her favorite beverage, and of course, a hand-written note. If you want to make it even more extravagant, add a gift card to her favorite shops or coffee shops, a voucher for a spa day, or just some cash so she can feel extra spoiled.
The price range is totally up to you, but the most affordable one we found is only $15.
