Finding the perfect Valentine’s gift for your loved one can certainly be a stress-inducing affair. While items like flowers and candy tend to be the default selection for a lot of guys, the truth is many women feel these gifts lack that personal touch so important to showing how much you truly care. The following four examples illustrate the type of gifts most of us crave on this most romantic day, from deeply personal items to once-in-a-lifetime experiences.

Gifts Suited to Her Favorite Hobby or Interest
Although glitz and glamor are usually considered prerequisites when seeking suitable Valentine’s gifts, practical items often work just as well. This is especially true when such items relate to a treasured hobby or interest, whether that entails gifts suited to outdoor adventures or something a bit more laid back like arts and crafts.
For instance, bibliophiles are sure to love their own personal e-reader or a membership to a book of the month club. As for those with a fierce devotion to creating exquisite meals, kitchen appliances make for a loving and useful gift. Catering to your significant other’s personal interests is bound to make a greater impact than a one-size-fits-all gift like chocolates.
Jewelry With a Thoughtful Touch
A gift of jewelry is usually a safe bet for just about any special occasion, provided you select a piece that matches your beloved’s specific style aesthetic. For Valentine’s Day you can make this gift even more memorable by getting it engraved with a heartfelt reminder of your love.
When engraving jewelry, try to select a personal note that has a great deal of emotional impact. This can include things like anniversary dates, your name along with that of your partner, or even a word or phrase that exemplifies your loved one’s amazing personality.
An Experience of a Lifetime
When it comes to Valentine’s Day, a great and unique gift would be an experience-based gift that provide the recipient enjoyment beyond the immediate holiday. Such gifts offer an additional benefit by allowing you to share in the good time with your partner, thereby creating new and loving memories for you both.
Romantic getaways to exotic locales are just one option for those seeking an elaborate gift fit for larger budgets. If you are in search of a less expensive option, consider purchasing a membership to a local museum or season tickets to either a theater or concert series. Experience-based gifts can be enjoyed long after the holiday has passed, as opposed to something like a bouquet of flowers, which has a relatively brief shelf life.
A Day of Pampering
Who doesn’t love a bit of pampering? With this in mind, woo your beloved by purchasing a gift certificate to a local spa, which will allow her to pamper herself in luxury and take a much-needed break from the same old routine.
If expensive spa treatments are out of the question, create a memorable in-home spa day for your girl by offering a back rub, foot massage, and other treatments aimed at boosting relaxation. You can also agree to tackle any cooking and cleaning duties to ensure your partner can make the most of her romantic day of pampering.
As the old saying goes, it’s the thought that counts when gift-giving. With a bit of creativity, you can imbue this and every Valentine’s Day with a deeper meaning by thoughtfully selecting memorable gifts well suited to your beloved.

My husband is always so hard to shop for. I am going to take your advise and buy him a gift that has something to do with one of his hobbies.
Jewelry will always be on top of every gift or wishlist. Awesome list you have here Ms. Mary Jane.
These all sound like great ways to get your special someone that perfect Valentine’s gift. We usually go out to dinner just the two of us.
MY husband always get me a pot of mini rose to plant over the Spring. I like it more than bouquets.
I totally agree. The typical valentines gifts can really feel impersonal. If a guy gets my flowers I want some that I can plant, or succulents or something. Cut flowers just die lol. These are some great suggestions. I think bottom line you just need to put thought into your gift and make the other person feel special, even if the gift is just time with them
These are great suggestions. We usually just go on a romantic date.
Great suggestions. I am not sure what we are doing for Valentine’s but I really need to think of what Im giving my hubby. It’s approaching quickly!
We don’t really give out gifts on Valentine’s day. But these are nice suggestions.
I can’t think of a better gift to give and receive at any time!
Great ideas! I really would love to have a day of pampering with my sweetie. I think we might get a couples massage.
I’d love to go on a romantic getaway. A day of pampering sounds delightful too but a vaca is always welcome.
I am all for a day of pampering! I love getting a massage, facial, pedicure.
