Choosing what to get your valentine can be an intimidating task. Around this time of year, companies are constantly bombarding you with adverts of diamond rings and premium watches, your measly chocolate bar simply won’t do. But do not fear! Don’t listen to the corporate dogs, the art of gift giving is really quite simple.  

Now although I just said you don’t have to follow the jewellery route, a shiny present for your partner that is within your budget is a great idea. There’s something so lovely about seeing your significant other wearing something you’ve bought.  

But, if your budget is tight, that doesn’t mean your options are limited. Welcome to the world of handmade gifts! A beautiful self-crafted card or a meaningful photo collage can hold just as much, if not more, impact as the other conventional gifts. If you’ve made it, it means it’s come straight from the heart; what could be more romantic than that? 

"At the end of the day, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Whatever you get for your partner will be a manifestation of your care for them."

If you’re still struggling, default to their favourite things. Are there any treats they love? What was that thing they mentioned a few months ago? Trust your instincts, and reassure yourself that anything you give is romantic and an embodiment of your feelings for that person.  

Gift giving is a beautiful thing. It doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated, simply giving at all shows you care. I love my girlfriend, and giving her little treats or personalised presents is such a fun way to show it. At the end of the day, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Whatever you get for your partner will be a manifestation of your care for them. 

And hey! You’ve got all 364 other days in the year to give them something else if you can’t find what you want. So relax, and trust that your partner will like anything coming from you.
