It’s the season of love and though it may not be one of the largely celebrated holidays that doesn’t mean there isn’t to express your love for the people closest to you.
One of the ways to show your love is through flowers. You can find flowers at your local grocery stores like Kroger or Meijer. Knowing a person’s favorite flowers adds an extra touch; roses are always a good go, especially for Valentine’s Day. Another way to make flowers even more special is to make a bouquet of fake flowers which you can get at almost any craft store like Michaels or Joann’s. You can personalize the bouquet to the person’s favorite color or flower and they will never die so your special someone can keep them forever. Speaking of undying flowers, Lego bouquets have been trending recently, allowing you to spend quality time together building them. You can find Lego Flowers in Target or Barnes & Noble.
While you’ve stopped in Target they have a whole section of Gifts just for Valentine’s Day including chocolates, candles, candy, cards, and stuffed animals. They offer plenty of items to help you create your own “Bae Basket” full of the things your significant other or friend loves. On social media, it has been a continuing trend to make baskets filled with goodies for different seasons and holidays such as “Boo Baskets” and “Burr Baskets”. These baskets are a great go too because you can fill them with however many treats you want and they will always come out looking presentable and filled with love.
Something extra to add to your basket is a Jelly Cat; Jelly Cats are a popular stuffed animal brand that has normal plushies as well as seasonal releases. There are tons of options such as the Amuseables Beatie Heart, Amuseables Val & Tina Love Locks, Amuseables Rose Bouquet, and The Bashful Red Love Heart Bunny. They also sell plushies for different sports such as Amuseables Sports Baseball, soccer ball, football, basketball, volleyball, and many others.
The perfect way to give your gifts is with some delicious food. If you are going more casual then Chick-fil-A is the place because they have heart trays that you can order filled with a thirty-piece chicken nugget, 12 chocolate brownie halves, 6 chocolate chip cookies, or 10 chicken sandwich squares. Other casual restaurants include Chipotle, Canes, Popeyes, Chillies, and Wing Stop.
If you are looking for somewhere fancier, Bridge Park is filled with beautiful restaurants and amazing food. Spots like The Pearl which is a restaurant, tavern, and oyster room that serves chef-inspired cuisine. Another fine-dining restaurant is Kitchen Social which serves an array of dishes and the atmosphere is calming. Other notable restaurants include Valentina’s, Cap City Fine Diner And Bar, and Mezzo.
Even though Valentines’ Day isn’t as celebrated as other holidays it still gives you the excuse to show your loved ones just how much they mean to you. So get out there and treat yourself and the people you care for. Have a happy Valentine’s Day!
