Valentine’s Day gift ideas

Gifts for Valentine’s Day can sometimes be a bit tricky to get right (and often end up as a last-minute rush to pick up chocolates from a petrol station), so we’re here to help with lots of creative ideas for personalised photo gifts that will show your loved ones that you truly care. Still easy to create and perfect for any budget, a photo gift is original, unique, and the best way to say ‘I love you’ without the cliché and cringe.

Brighten their morning

A photo mug is the perfect addition to your Valentine’s Day breakfast in bed, and all the morning brews to come. Add a snap from your romantic getaway, your favourite photo together, or the one that always makes you both laugh. You can also customise your photo mug with added text, layouts and clip art for a completely personalised gift.

Tell your love story

Creating a photo book is the best way to let your loved ones know just how much they mean to you, and it shows that you made the time and effort to make a unique gift. You could create a timeline of memories since you met, a collection of all the trips you’ve taken, or maybe a foodie or recipe book featuring all the best meals you’ve had together. If you want to make it solely about them, why not create a book related to their favourite hobby.

If you really want to make a big impression, opt for the beautiful premium layflat style, with extra-thick pages that lay perfectly flat when open so no detail gets lots in the crease.

Not too sure where to start? Select one of our pre-designed templates, which are a great starting point that also let you customise as much as you like. Check out our guide on how to use them here.

Valentine’s flower gifts

Valentine’s Day flowers are always a classic choice, but why not make them even more special this year? Add a thoughtful touch by pairing your bouquet with a small photo print of the two of you, used as a card or keepsake. It’s a simple but lovely way to elevate a traditional Valentine’s gift and make it uniquely yours. Whether it’s a snapshot from your favourite holiday or a fun moment you’ve shared, adding this personal touch ensures your flowers will stand out and be remembered long after Valentine’s Day.

Display your best moment together

If you live under the same roof, why not create some wall art for the perfect Valentine’s gift? Choose from a range of sizes, formats, and high-quality printing finishes that will best suit your space, and add a picture of you both or maybe a snap from a great trip you took together – it’s that simple to gift a unique piece of decor this Valentine’s Day. And if you can’t choose just one love-filled moment, simply opt for a layout that lets you add up to 12 photos. Click here to get creating!

Love is where the fridge is

If you’re after a gift that’s small and simple, but still personal and completely unique, opt for a set of personalised photo magnets. They’re quick and easy to create – all you have to do is choose nine of your favourite photos together. Or perhaps you can share the love by creating one for each of the loves in your life, so every time they go to grab a snack, they’ll know that you care.

Cosy up with a cushion

A cushion is a thoughtful Valentine’s gift for her or for him, and combines comfort and creativity in one cosy package. Pick a favourite photo that sparks joy, whether it’s a silly selfie, a romantic moment, or a memory that always makes them smile. Perfect for snuggling up on the sofa or adding a unique accent to your home, a custom cushion is a heartfelt way to say I love you – whether it’s your first Valentine’s Day gift together or your 20th.

Valentine’s Day activity = sorted

For a gift that also doubles as a Valentine’s evening plan, create a personalised jigsaw. They’re available in six different piece counts, from 49-pieces for puzzle novices, up to 2000 pieces for those that love a challenge. Made by Ravensburger, Europe’s puzzle specialist, you can be sure you’ll be giving a high-quality gift.
