Valentine's Week is the time to express affection, celebrate relationships, and show love in various forms. Each day has its own unique meaning, and with each day comes the opportunity (more like a responsibility these days) to show your special someone just how much they mean to you. From February 7th to February 14th, here's a breakdown of what each day represents and a thoughtful gift idea to complement each occasion:
2/9
Rose Day (February 7): Rose Day is the starting point of Valentine’s Week, symbolising love, passion, and admiration. It’s a day to give roses to express your feelings. Instead of the traditional bouquet, consider a rose-scented bath set with luxurious soaps, bath bombs, and lotions. It’s a unique way to offer a sensory experience, enveloping your partner in the beauty and scent of roses throughout their self-care routine (Image: Canva)

Propose Day (February 8): Propose Day is all about taking things to the next level, whether it’s proposing marriage or expressing your love and commitment in a new way. Create a custom star map that shows the night sky as it appeared on the day you met or another significant moment in your relationship. It’s a beautiful and thoughtful way to symbolise your journey together (Image: Canva)

Chocolate Day (February 9): Chocolate Day celebrates the sweetness of love and is a perfect occasion to indulge in chocolates together. Instead of just gifting a box of chocolates, go one step further and give a DIY chocolate-making kit. Include all the ingredients needed for your partner to create their own personalised chocolate treats, making it a fun and interactive experience (Image: Canva)
Teddy Day (February 10): Teddy Day is about sending warmth, comfort, and affection through the softness of a stuffed animal. Gift two teddy bears, each one personalised with your initials or a special message. These matching bears can symbolise the two of you as a pair, making the gift even more sentimental and unique (Image: Canva)

Promise Day (February 11): Promise Day is about making deep promises to each other, strengthening your bond with commitments of loyalty, support, and love. For a meaningful and lasting gift, write a heartfelt promise on a wooden plate or metal plaque. Instead of over-promising, focus on a simple, sincere promise that you can keep, like "I promise to always listen to you" or "I promise to keep your heart full of happiness." The engraving can be displayed as a constant reminder of the love and commitment you share (Image: Canva)

Hug Day (February 12): Hug Day celebrates the comforting, loving embrace that physical touch brings to a relationship. A cosy heated blanket is the perfect gift for Hug Day. It’s a warm and practical way to show affection, especially when you can’t always be physically close and cuddly. This gift will keep your partner warm, both literally and emotionally (Image: Canva)

Kiss Day (February 13): Kiss Day is all about romance, passion, and physical affection, symbolises by a kiss. A luxury lip care kit, complete with a hydrating lip balm, exfoliator, and gloss, is a perfect gift. It’s a playful and thoughtful way to enhance the feeling of Kiss Day, ensuring your partner’s lips are kissably soft (Image: Canva)
Valentine’s Day (February 14): Valentine’s Day is the ultimate celebration of love, where you go all out to show your affection and devotion to your partner. Instead of a typical gift, curate a personalised experience box filled with items that represent memories or experiences you’ve shared. Include coupons to a favourite restaurant, a framed photo from a trip, or tickets to your next trip together, a handwritten letter, and anything else that signifies your togetherness. This thoughtful and customized gift creates a truly meaningful experience.
