5 Gift Ideas and Activities for Valentine’s Day
1) Eco-Friendly Jewelry You can never go wrong with jewelry, especially if it’s going towards a great cause. 4ocean offers a variety of bracelets and jewelry that are made from plastics and debris recovered from the ocean, rivers, and coastlines. Each purchase from their shop ensures the removal of one pound of trash. Visit their bracelet and jewelry selection here to see their incredible creations. Read more about 4ocean and the incredible work that they do here.
2) Cooking Food is the universal language of love. It can be a lot of fun preparing meals with the ones you cherish. Try a new recipe or recreate old favorites! If you’re looking to include a gift, I recommend a naturally engraved coconut bowl and spoon. Rather than sending coconut shells to the landfills, they’ve been carefully polished and may be used as serving bowls. They’re beautiful, lightweight, and are easy to clean. Each bowl is unique, sustainable, and plastic free! Discover these bowls here!
3) Paint Get crafty this Valentine’s Day with Paint by Numbers! It’s great for both kids and adults. There are so many beautiful photos to choose from, which means there’s something for everyone! Gift this to a loved one and spend your Valentine’s Day painting together. If the weather calls for it, you can even paint outdoors! This is also a great hobby to enjoy on your own. I love listening to podcasts or soothing music while I’m painting. It’s a great activity that keeps you present and away from your computer/phone screens. Order your kit here!
4) Get Outdoors Grab a hot cup of coffee (or iced!) and enjoy the outdoors. Valentine’s Day is all about love and nothing beats good company and good conversation. Get your daily steps in, dose of vitamin D, and catch up with your loved ones.
5) Self-Care Whether you’re spending Valentine’s Day with company or not, you deserve to indulge and treat yourself. Treating yourself may look like taking a hot bath, lighting candles, and catching up on a good book. I highly recommend Everyday Mantras by Aysel Gunar. These mantras amplify self-love and you can read my review here! Or self-care could look like snuggling up on the couch and watching Netflix, Disney+, or Amazon Prime with some delicious take out.
I hope this post sparked some ideas on how to spend this special day. Regardless of if you’re spending it alone, with a partner, or with loved ones, I hope your Valentine’s Day is filled with love. Will you be treating yourself to anything? Do you have any plans for this special day? I’d love to know! For more holiday related posts, visit my tag here.

The Everyday Mantras idea sounds great. A happy life is one in which we love and accept ourselves as we are. This is the starting point to establishing peace of mind and to share love with others. Super ideas here.
