Yay for Valentine’s Day!
CBH’s Valentine’s Day Gift Guide for 2024…
Valentine’s Day is a CBH favorite! From the pink to the hearts and the overall sweetness, Valentine’s Day is just cute. So don’t feel pressured to get your special someone the perfect gift because it’s simpler than that: send hugs and kisses in celebration of your love and affection! Heartfelt gestures always top the list of best gifts so don’t overlook the simple something, e.g., cook your special someone their favorite dinner! But, for those of you who you want to do something a little more over the top CBH has you covered. Here are a few general gift ideas…
Stuff to indulge in comfort — think cute socks (Sandy Liang), fun candles to set a relaxing mood (Néos Candle Studio “kiss me” candles), or a cotton-candy hued mohair throw (Lands Down Under, they have a great color selection, too). These gifts convey your dedication to their comfort and relaxation which is bound to be well received. Think about how your special someone likes to spend their downtime and gift something to encourage just that.
Girly self-care items — reusable eye masks (Jeumont Skin), pretty hair ties (Jennifer Behr), satin sleeping masks (Daily Sleeper) for every night or travel…. Gifts like this support your special someone taking the time to relax and indulge in their own self-care. Perfect for the gals who are always on the go and need a gentle reminder to slow down.
All the goodies to stay in touch — ok, a very underrated category! Whether you’re gifting to a friend, family member, or a special lady beautiful stationery items are always a good idea. Personalized note cards (Smythson) or sophisticated writing instruments are the type of gift that are immediately satisfying, and it’s renewed every time your loved one sends out a sweet note!
An intellectual something — giving this type of gift to the right person says you went out of your way to find them something unique and thoughtful based on how well you know them and their quirks. This gift isn’t for everyone, but gifting a book that tells a story or shares a history you believe someone is going to go wild over is a deeply personal and loving gesture. Think of all the good conversation to follow….
Cheeky shtuff — monogrammed lingerie bag (Angie Power), smoking accessories (Abbode), curvy glassware (Anissa Kermiche)…. This is the type of gift that says “I know I didn’t need to get you anything, but I wanted to,” which = the best.
Last but most certainly not least, JEWELS — we can’t deny that they are the best (especially if they’re Brent Neale)! But not every piece of jewelry is created equally no matter how brilliant it is. It’s still important to get something that you’re confident the recipient will love and doing that requires understanding their style, whether they prefer every day jewelry or occasion pieces, etc. It feels sweetly old-fashioned and ultra romantic to gift a piece of jewelry and there’s no better occasion than Valentine’s Day to do so!
Final tip: don’t underestimate quality wrapping! Elevate your gift even more with a quality wrap job and a sweet note.
Final final tip: place an order for a curated gift box delivered directly to your special someone with all of their favorite things! We’ll discuss the gift profile to make sure that the selected item(s) exceed all expectations, yours and theirs both!
