Last Minute Valentine’s Day Gifts 💖

Happy New Year, dears!

I truly didn’t intend for this to be my first post of the year, but here we are and I wanna get right into it!

As we all know, Valentine’s Day is Sunday! Yep, this upcoming Sunday and you still don’t have a gift. (Shame on you!) But, hey, I got you!

Here are a couple quick fixes for you. Oh and heads up – these are all local and small businesses so I encourage you to show love and support.

Valentine’s Day Packages from Promise Jars by Kell
Promise Jars by Kell creates & provides innovative products that encourage & empower their customers in their everyday life, through gift packages, apparel and as the name says – Promise Jars! Promise Jars are filled with quotes and advice, scriptures, activities as well as affirmations. They currently have Valentine Packages as well as Shades of Love Jar series which highlight and speak into a person’s life whether they are single, dating, engaged or married.

My favorite from the collection this year is “The Sweetest Thing” package which includes a mini promise jar, journal & pen, along with chocolates. Great for friends, family and loved ones! Check them out- you won’t regret it!

Valentine’s Day Cookie Box by Batter and Doughs
Last year I ordered Christmas cookies from Batter and Doughs and they were a hit! I was excited when I saw they were having a special box for Valentine’s this year so I made it a point to order and now I’m sharing it with you! Get on it – she’s accepting last minute orders!

Loungewear by Signature Simz
Signature Simz specializes in cute silk loungewear such as robes, sleepwear, bonnets and masks. I’ve never bought from there but I’ve heard amazing things! They have an entire valentine collection available. I’ve linked both their instagram and website, but they’re also going to be present at Eljo’s Pop Up on Saturday.

Immortelle Beauty
Immortelle Beauty is a local luxurious body care & cosmetic company. My friend Brianna, put me on to them a little over a year ago. They make several creams, scrubs, oils and footcare products. Additionally, they have stunning candles and home fragrances. My personal favorites are the Jasmine and Evergreen shower gel and spray oil. I recently received the Pomelo and Coco Creme spray oil and I enjoy that as well.
Whatever you decide, I’m sure your valentine will enjoy getting goodies from this amazing brand.

Outright Apparel
I’ve talked about this jewelry company several times, and I really enjoy their items and service. They deliver within 24-48 hours of ordering. They have everything from dainty and fine jewelry to statement pieces. You can find everything from earrings, rings, bracelets, anklets and necklaces. Great for the ladies in your life.

Kyle Hernandez
Okay….hear me out. I am not pimping out my boyfriend…not in that way at least. Kyle Hernandez is a poet, teaching and spoken word artist. He’s incredible with words and helps you articulate & relay what you’re feeling, when you can’t. He has an incredible special going on right now for Valentine’s Day – so check him out. (For that alone, I thank youuu.)

Last but certainly not least…

Breakfast + Brunch Dates
I loveee breakfast and brunch dates. They’re so simple and you get to eat! (LOL) Some places I really enjoy are having Valentine’s Day specials so I suggest you make a reservation and enjoy your date.
My favs are –
1. Arts Cafe
2. Dolce Desserts
3. Whipped
4. Pêche Patisserie
5. Crust 2 Crumb Bistro

There you have it! A very quick guide for your last minute needs. I truly think any of these will make a great gift.

Also, let me take this time to say if you don’t have a valentine…THAT AIN’T A PROBLEM! Girl, just be like me and buy your own stuff sometimes! Gift yourself. You deserve, okay!

I appreciate you for reading and I encourage you share! I thank you so, so much!

Happy Valentine’s, friends!

“There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us.” 1 John 4: 18-19
