Valentine’s Gift Ideas

February 3, 2021 By kimwheeler 12 Comments

Valentine’s seems to be getting bigger every year and many retailers make some charming gifts just for the holiday. I just love red, pink and the heart motif in general, so I thought I’d share some of the cuter things that have popped up on my radar.

Before I share the online things, I also would like to share a local spot – Campbell’s Petite Petal Company . I love these people and supporting a small business. You can direct your sweetheart to their site, and they deliver or can have ready to pick up. I especially love this Modern Romantic mixture and the vase!

They also have teamed up with another San Jose company Board & Bougie to offer a cute goodie box you can add on to your flowers.. Isn’t this darling?

Again I believe in telling your significant other what you want. I am sure they appreciate the help too.

If you have a need for some cute Valentine’s ideas there’s a lot to choose from this year…

I’m a sucker for Tory Burch and her heart sandals are calling to me. Not sure I need them, but they would be so cute this spring with khaki pants and a white t-shirt! They also come in a pretty creme.

Other finds..

This charming scarf..Half off now at the Loft.

This Scarlett Poppy Cologne from Joe Malone. It’s described as powdery and soft..

An adorable Love sweatshirt from Spiritual Gangster.

I adore these towels from William-Sonoma and this sentiment.

Williams-Sonoma also has many cool food items to order … Like these sweet slice and bake cookies. Maybe a neat project with kiddos and you could wrap them up and share too?

These little bouquet cakes are darling- and kind of a splurge, but if you were just delivering to multiple people – what a sweet surprise.

And one more food thing.. Who Knew Trisha Yearwood made candy? These XO sour gummies are fun.

There are loads of Valentines food gifts and cakes at Williams-Sonoma. You can check them all out here. They also have many heart wreaths and others like this one that reminds me of my mom’s pink stripe and chintz house in the 80’s. She had one just like this..

I love the quality of Roller Rabbit things. Their heart robe is not only a pretty block print, but made of the soft pima cotton they use.

For kids these friendship bracelets come in sets of 2 and are a cool thing to share in several different charms and colors…

This is a beautiful book of love poetry to enjoy or give to someone special.

Pottery Barn has this sweet doormat.

A classic for your nightstand- this frame.

A small luxury this Valentino Rockstud card case.

Or the bracelet..

A pretty Madewell layered necklace.

Frances Valentine has been donating heart totes to front-line workers for every one sold. So far they have given over 4,000 and are still doing it.. Such a nice thing- and a very cute tote!

I like this red and navy heart pull on slip skirt from J Crew.. The elastic waist is kind of hidden the flat panel and would be more comfy than a zip up..so I’m more likely to wear with sweaters and sneakers this spring.

I have been thinking about this Tory sweatshirt too..

Some cute socks for your Valentine…

Sugarfina makes this set of three tea chocolate bars.. a great idea for sharing with friends.

A soft terry sweatshirt by Lou & Grey..

How adorbs is this little set for 3-24 month olds?

I thought this was cute from Pencil & Paper Co. at Anthro, a chic pill case!

Terrain has this Grapevine Heart Garland in different sizes and it would be pretty with fairy lights as they show it here..

This travel jewelry case is a super useable gift and you can choose from so many colors and ways to personalize it with stripes or a pretty shadow monogram. Who wouldn’t love this??

And for the guys Mark & Graham has a personalized Acacia Wood Tray which is attractive and affordable. I’m thinking of getting one for each of my guys.

I can think of a few guys who would love these Tree Hugger socks from the Parks Project.

Hope you found something to love.

Wishing you all a beautiful Valentines.

Kim

Today, on the blog, some Valentine fun. 💗I’m Today, on the blog, some Valentine fun. 💗I’m joining a group of talented women and we all have some Valentine ideas for you. My blog is about an easy Valentine or Galentine‘s dinner you can recreate. I tried to make this super simple because the whole point is gathering with your people and having a good time. 

I did make ahead dishes and used pink items already in my home for the table. I added primroses from the hardware store for extra prettiness and for take home favors. 💕

Stop on by the blog to get all the details.

Styling idea of the week…February dressing inspi Styling idea of the week…February dressing inspiration from Princess Diana.. Try a puffer vest or jacket paired with ruffles or florals and a skirt. A pretty transitional look with a romantic February vibe. 💗 Maybe you already have these items in the closet? See what you can create!

This pic is from the fun account, @lostinvintagefashion which is a wonderful rabbit hole to drop into should you need some sartorial inspiration.

Happy first of February friends!

The weekend post is up with chat about the trendin The weekend post is up with chat about the trending colors for 2023 in home decor and fashion.. Did you love the 80’s? If so this is perhaps a more sophisticated version with sherbet tones and bits of magenta, greens and navy.  Here I added a bit of these Easter tones to the coffee table with a grass cloth box, one of my books and a candle. I think the best way to update things is to add touches to the home and closet that appeal to you and mix them in with neutrals.. 
What do you think of these colors? I think they’re fun. Some clothing pieces bring me back to my Esprit loving days. It could be fun to add a shirt, shoe or bag in these tones and I selected a handful to consider..

Also on the blog, a few good white jeans, skin cleansers you may need and more!

A January PSA- get in your closet and get those wh A January PSA- get in your closet and get those white jeans out! I found mine at the bottom of my closet today in a basket and thought -yes! I love the look of a classic white jean, paired with a chunky sweater or turtleneck in black, beige, tan, creams-  neutral colors always look fantastic. Today it was warm enough that I could go sockless and wear my Madewell loafers with them and a little jacket I have from Anthro. Get your white jeans out. it will give your winter wardrobe have a little kick. White jeans can be worn all year and they even look great with winter boots and coats. 

This is also a great time to look at your white Jean inventory. 🤍If you don’t have a pair that’s comfortable and straight leg, in a thicker material…this might be a good time to look. I’ll share some on the weekend blog as well.

if you missed our LIVE this morning, you can watch it on Juliet’s @makemineaspritzer Instagram and I’ll link to it on my stories ! Thank you everyone for tuning in in for the fun questions and comments. We love doing this with you all weekly! Let us know in comments if there are any other topics you want to hear about. Today we talked trending colors, exercise classes .. finding art and pillows and more..

This is one of my favorite things about the new year, the bulbs and daffodils and California poppies that hint spring it on the way.💛 If you don’t have a few blooms in the kitchen, maybe you can add a few?

Hope your having a beautiful week!

I love this of Liz Taylor at her first wedding to I love this of Liz Taylor at her first wedding to Richard Burton in 1965. She’s wearing a empire, knee length dress and orange blossoms in her hair, which must have smelled heavenly. I want yellow in my closet this spring!

This is the center of my spring vision board! 💛 Link to all Elizabeth’s wedding dresses on the weekend post -and a few yellow things I added to the house if you missed it!

Sunday beach trip… We made it to Santa Cruz to c Sunday beach trip… We made it to Santa Cruz to check out the coast after these rough last weeks. Aptos looks pretty good and poor Seacliff is terribly battered. So sad to see what people have lost. My heart goes out to them.

We had the beach to ourselves and the weather was winter perfect. ☀️Cold and sunny. We had a picnic of sandwiches from Zoccolis deli and took in the sun and sea air while watching surfers and birds.

This song just seemed to fit -and relatable as I could not sleep last night! No idea why. Isn’t it maddening? 

Hope you get a chance to take a winter beach walk.. They are the best.

Our dear friend Contessa @contessa_and_her_pig has Our dear friend Contessa @contessa_and_her_pig has been seriously sick and fortunately is back home now, but still struggling with pneumonia. If anyone wants to send her a snail mail note please dm me and I will share her address. She loves unique cards and pretty postcards you’ve saved from travel, so she would be thrilled to get a little note!

It seems like just yesterday we were in her gorgeous yard taking photos for my Californians at Home series. It’s still one of my favorite photo shoots and if you want to read it again -or missed it I will link to it in my bio today. She’s one of a kind, so let’s get her well soon and bolster her spirits!!💛💛

I have to share a snippet of just some of the wisd I have to share a snippet of just some of the wisdom that was Martin Luther King. He will always be one of my biggest heroes and ten years ago I wrote a small post highlighting some of his very meaningful words and quotes that we could all use as a life guide. Link to the post in my bio and more on my stories. 

Do you know he is the only American to have a holiday for him that hasn’t been a president? He also had a low approval rating when he died. That has changed. Now people around the world use his teachings of living in peace and the fight for justice as a model we can strive for. I find his words so very needed in a world that is polarized more than ever. ❤️

It’s still raining here! In an effort to use som It’s still raining here! In an effort to use some beautiful citrus and boost morale, I made these chocolate chips with a California twist. They have orange and walnuts -and for fun I added macadamias from my Hawaii trip and coconut flakes. I also switched out brown sugar for moscavado which is less refined and had more depth and flavor. So far response has been thumbs up from the home crew! 
The recipe and all the weekend fun- along with some cozy coats for this weather, and a recap of our SF meander are on the weekend blog. Juliet and Elizabeth also have great ideas this weekend.. links as always, in our bios or stories:

Just a little peek at some of the homes in San Fra Just a little peek at some of the homes in San Francisco’s Laurel Heights and a little walk through the Presidio to the Lyon Street Steps. We had an unbelievably beautiful day after so much rain and darkness. I highly recommend walking through this neighborhood, through The Presidio and grabbing lunch and checking out the lovely shops like the new Emily Joubert! The views are amazing all the way to the Golden Gate, and I am in love with all the beautiful homes of San Francisco. ❤️
