Valentine's Day Gift Guide

Happy love day, Bag-allers! Personally, we think love and appreciation should be shown and celebrated all day, every day, but why not take today and give the ones you love a little extra attention? Valentine’s Day is a great time to tell that special someone in your life you love them, to send that text to the cousin you haven’t talked to in a while, and to let your friends and family know how special they are to you.

It’s not about the gifts

So, how do we celebrate Valentines’ Day? In our opinion, it’s all about the small gestures and about spending time with people you love. Did you know that one of the three things people look back at in life and regret is not telling the people they love that they love them often enough? Start the day off by sending a feel-good text to all the wonderful people in your life. Maybe you live with someone? Then, breakfast in bed is always a good idea. Maybe your best friend works near your office? Bring their favorite coffee over and surprise them. Gifts are definitely not the most important thing about V-day, but if you’re feeling it, why not send some flowers? Today is all about spreading love and good feelings. Speaking about good feelings, why not give out compliments to strangers? There’s nothing better than making other people feel good about themselves.

…But if you’re in the mood to give…

Although Valentine’s Day is not about giving gifts, some love languages are. Maybe you’re a gift giving kind of love celebrator who prefers to give something tangible to the people you love? If that’s the case, let us introduce you to our gift guide!

Personally, we love giving gifts that benefit the world and the environment. Some good gift suggestions are to plant trees, to donate money to an organization that works for something your loved one is passionate about, or to plan a day full of adventures for the two of you. This doesn’t have to be expensive at all; it can be anything from a picknick to an ice skating session, to swimming in the ocean. Wherever you live in the world, take advantage of the beautiful sources mother nature has provided us with and challenge yourself, can you make your Valentine’s Day waste free?

If you, like us, try to reduce the use of plastic, we can’t recommend our Bag-all products enough. Give away the gift of reuse and help your Valentine avoid plastic by providing them with other more sustainable options. Our Travel Bags, Cases, Packing Essentials and Purses will make packing easier while helping the planet.
