1. Personalized Jewelry
A delicate necklace or bracelet with her initials or a special charm can add a personal touch to her jewelry collection.
This pretty necklace is customizable, and won’t break your budget. I really love the font they use for the name; it’s so pretty and much more delicate looking than other personalized necklaces I’ve seen.
2. Customized Photo Frame
A sweet Valentine gift idea for her that she’ll love is a customized photo frame.
Choose a favorite photo of the two of you and add a sweet message or date.
For something different, this glitter picture frame has a unique snow-globe effect.
In either case, seeing a favorite pic of you two is a sentimental Valentine’s gift for her that will make her smile every time she sees it.
3. Scented Candles
A luxurious-scented candle can set the mood for a cozy night in.
Choose one with her favorite scent and you’ve got yourself a perfect budget-friendly Valentine gift idea for her.
You can even find candles that come with a romantic quote on the label.
It must say something about where I’m at that I got all sentimental when I was reading these romantic candle quotes. 🙂
4. Cute Mug and Hot Chocolate Set
Nothing says comfort like a warm drink. Pair a cute, Valentine’s-themed mug with a gourmet hot chocolate mix or a selection of her favorite teas.
This ultimate self-care set for her not only includes a pretty pink mug, hot chocolate, and marshmallows, but also cozy pink socks and a pink cable-knit hot water bottle.
This tea infuser mug set was designed in Minneapolis, and was created to encourage her to take a pause during her busy day.
These homemade salty-and-sweet Valentine’s day pretzels would be a nice addition to this gift.
5. Valentine Gift Ideas for Her if She’s the Romantic Type: Handwritten Letter
Sometimes the best Valentine’s Day gift is a heartfelt note.
Write her a letter expressing your feelings and appreciation.
Whether it’s a long love letter or a few sweet lines, your words will have far more impact than any store-bought gift.
If you want to make it extra special, get this vintage stationary set. It’s seriously gorgeous paper, and comes with rope and charms to tie it up.
6. DIY Love Jar
Create a jar filled with little notes, each one containing a reason why you love her, a special memory, or something you look forward to in your relationship.
It’s a thoughtful, creative gift that will make her feel extra special every time she pulls out a note.
This love notes jar will give you a head start with a sweet container, and pretty craft paper for the love notes.
7. Cozy Socks or Slippers
Perfect for a cozy night in, a pair of soft, plush socks or slippers will keep her feet warm and toasty.
I LOVE these all-white slippers that have subtle hearts, so she can wear them year-round.
These ones are a bit silly, but oddly cute too.
8. Shower Steamers
If you’ve never tried shower steamers before, they are life changing. They are one of my favorite Valentine gift ideas for her.
They seriously make your bathroom feel like a spa.
These ones are made with real essential oils (not all sets are) and are filled with flower petals.
These heart-shaped bath bombs make a great Valentine’s Day gift too. They come in scents like lemon, mint, rose, and something called Buddha’s hand, which I’m especially curious what that smells like.
9. Valentine Gift Ideas for Her that Last Longer than Flowers: A Sweet Plant
Instead of flowers that will wilt in a week, give her a long-lasting plant like a succulent or small potted flower.
This is a Valentine gift for her that my dad gives my mom every year, and they’ve been married for over 40 years. I’m pretty sure it’s related.
Plus, it’s a low-maintenance option if she doesn’t have a green thumb.
This terrarium with wooden stand is another gorgeous and affordable option.
10. Personalized Keychain
A customized keychain with her name, initials, or a meaningful date (like your anniversary) is a small but thoughtful gift.
It’s something she can carry with her every day and think of you each time she uses her keys.
The message on this keychain is so sweet.
And you can customize this keychain with a photo and text.
Wishing you a happy Valentine’s Day, and a year filled with love!
