Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. Although flowers and candies may be nice, I am all for gifts that bring people together. Especially when it comes to love. With all our busy schedules it can be challenging sometimes to give 100% of our undivided attention to our loved one. So I wanted to share some Valentine’s date ideas along with these affordable Valentine’s Day gift ideas for couples that can spark romance!

Customized DIY Love Jar

For this you can use a jar, decorative box or a pretty vintage jelly jar. Either write or type out love quotes or words of affirmation for your special person to either pull one out daily or when they need a little extra love in their life.

Picnic Under the Stars

Grab a blanket and/or use a pick up truck to plan a romantic night under the stars. Pack a picnic cooler with finger foods. If you don’t have a ton of time to shop you can grab take out or a box of pizza along with a beverage of your choice. You can use twinkle lights around the blanket or truck. If you really want to make it extra romantic try using battery operated candles.

DIY Spa Night

Creating a spa date at home can be a relaxing and rejuvenating experience. Be sure to set the mood and gather up spa essentials like bath salts, bath bombs, body scrubs, face masks, and moisturizers. Take turns pampering each other and make sure to turn your phones off!

Cooking Class at Home

Go online a find a yummy recipe that the both of you will enjoy. Surprise your love with fun matching aprons, pour a drink, light some candles, play some romantic music and there is something about a record player that I have always thought was super romantic.
