February 14th is an incredibly special day when people around the world express their love and appreciation of their partners and loved ones.
Steeped in history and tradition, Valentine’s Day began with humble origins as a Roman festival and is still a key date on our calendar today.
Yet have you ever thought about giving a Valentine’s Gift that helps to show your love throughout the year? Imagine giving your partner or loved one the ultimate gift that they can enjoy every month as a reminder of your gratitude and love for them.
Let’s take a look at some thoughtful Valentine’s Gifts to give that can be enjoyed all year round.
Monthly Flower Subscription
Waking up to a bunch of red roses on February 14th is one thing, but did you know you could wow your loved one with a floral arrangement delivered directly to their door every month?
Monthly flower subscriptions have risen sharply in popularity in recent years as more and more people enjoy having fresh flowers in their homes.
Fresh flowers not only create a beautiful ambience in a room, they can also help to boost mood, especially as we spend more of our working lives within our own four walls.
Subscriptions are quick and easy to set up – allowing you to choose from 3, 6 or 12 month deliveries as well as stating when you want the deliveries to begin. Alternatively, you can pick an ongoing subscription and send flowers for as long as you like!
Plants and Trees to Enjoy
If your partner or loved one enjoys being outdoors, or you have a small garden or outside space in your home, why not consider buying a potted plant or a small tree this Valentine’s Day? Roses in pots are a lovely, romantic option and last far beyond the month of February.
For those without outdoor spaces, an orchid is an excellent option as a gift that can be enjoyed year round. Orchids are also a brilliant alternative for those who prefer single potted plants over bouquet type arrangements.
Frame Your Flowers
At Blossoming Gifts, we have some truly stunning flowers for you to send and enjoy this Valentine’s Day.
It always seems a shame to see flowers go to waste after they have brightened up your home and helped express your love and admiration for your partner on Valentine’s Day.
Why not consider drying your stems – this works brilliantly for flowers such as the letterbox red roses – and framing them to glance at whenever you want? For a spot of colour in your home throughout the year, consider the rainbow roses or lilies to brighten the dreariest day.
Desk Plants
Let’s face it, we all spend a fair amount of time at our desks. So why not place a key reminder of our partner’s love right in front of us when we’re hard at work?
Gifting a desk plant such as a small bonsai tree is a fantastic Valentine’s Gift which can be enjoyed all year round. This is an ideal gift for those who prefer more natural muted tones to brighter flowers and stems.
As well as being a lovely romantic gesture, placing a plant on your partner’s desk this Valentine’s Day could also help them boost productivity and achieve better work health.
Ultimate Gift Sets
Our gift sets are a ready to go gift for you to send this Valentine’s Day. If you think your loved one may prefer wine and chocolates over huge bouquets of roses, we’ve got you covered.
We’ve got different gift sets to suit different tastes and preferences. Find the right one for you by figuring out which wine or prosecco you think will be most enjoyed, whether your loved one likes chocolates or truffles, and adding in a thoughtful card.
There’s no guarantee that the wine and chocolates will last all year round – but gift sets are a lovely way to extend and expand the Valentine’s Day celebrations a little further.
A Thoughtful Card
We’ve got a beautiful range of cards for you to send alongside your Valentine’s Day gift this year.
You can personalise your gift with a bespoke message on a card of your choice to show your loved one just how much they mean to you.
Heartfelt words written on a Valentine’s Day card will be deeply appreciated and your partner will be able to keep the card to look at for months to come.
Thinking Ahead
For those who want to take things one step further, why not think about the year ahead? As well as the option of a monthly flower subscription, you could create a similar gift pattern yourself.
Present your loved one with a list of each month to come and a little preview of the flowers that you intend to buy them, or a gift you’d like them to receive.
Perhaps giving a small gift each month appeals more to you than simply one larger gift on February 14th. Whatever your gift giving preference, we’re here for you every step of the way.
Celebrate Love
One thing is for sure – love should be celebrated. We love the idea of Valentine’s gifts that can be enjoyed all year round and we want to help you find the perfect option for your partner.
