Valentine’s Day is over. The flowers are about to start wilting, you’ve eaten way more chocolate than you’ll ever admit to anyone and you’re showing off your brand new jewelry to anyone that has eyes. The drawings that your kids made at school are covering the fridge and you’re wondering if you only eat salad for the rest of the month, if you’ll get back to your pre-Valentine’s Day weight. You’ve sent cards to the ones you love and made a bunch of hand written cards for the kids to give out. You searched high and low for the perfect gift to show your honey how much you love them. But now what? Do you just wait until next year? Or do you do something to score extra points?
And what would you give as a Post Valentine’s Day gift? I think it should be something to compliment what you gave them already because that shows you put all types of thought into it. You could score major points with this idea (feel free to forward this to your significant other). We all need a hint every now and then.
- Gave a card or poem for Valentine’s Day? Give a storage box! What’s better than a pretty little box to store away all of their special cards, letters and pictures?
- Gave perfume/cologne or cosmetics? Give a decorative tray! I really love this vintage tray I found on Amazon.
- Gave chocolate? Give a salad spinner! We all feel a little guilty after Valentine’s Day. With all that chocolate, who can resist? You’ll be able to fill your body with veggies a little faster with this cool gadget. I’ve been wanting one for years!
- Gave lots of candy? Give toothpaste! Because, well… your teeth need some love too. And a bright, white smile will last all year with the right toothpaste. Our family uses Crest because it’s the best option for us. It’s the brand we trust. Now through February 24th, you can save $2.00 off Crest 3D White Radiant Mint toothpaste at Sam’s Club, both online and in-store. You can find all Crest toothpaste deals here. Gift and saving money? That gets you extra-extra points!
- Gave lingerie for Valentine’s Day? Give a mug! Caffeine will help with the lack of sleep. Wink. Wink.
- Gave jewelry? Give a jewelry dish or a jewelry cleaner! A cute little dish with a message on it will have your honey smiling every time they look at it. Want to go big? Get a jewelry cleaner to keep it all sparkly and clean!
- Gave flowers? Give a flower press! Flowers only last a minute, let’s be honest. With this fun flower press, your loved one can hold onto those flowers in a special way.
- Had to work and left honey with the kids on Valentine’s Day? Give a massage or a spa gift set! A day of relaxation can do wonders. And what parent doesn’t want just a little alone time?
- Had a fight but want to make things better? Give a relationship book that you can read together. That’s the key here… that you both read it. Giving a book like this without those terms could end up in a larger fight, so don’t leave that part out!
What did you get for Valentine’s Day? Can you think of the perfect Post Valentine’s Day gift to compliment what you gave? Comment below! I’d love to hear.

February 20, 2019I feel like my husband can be hard to buy for, so he always adds items to his Amazon wishlist. I never go wrong!
Shani | Sunshine & Munchkins
February 20, 2019I like the idea of giving something that compliments a gift you’ve previously given!
Kiwi

Fatima Torres

Soniachic
February 19, 2019So I did have the option to choose between a rose and $100 bills so I choose the hundred dollars instead of the rose,the next day I went to the store and I saw the roses was like 50% off, anyway Long story short I got mine!
Emmanuel Damian
February 19, 2019I usually give out cosmetics or perfume as a gift. It is very special and romantic to give after Valentine’s Day.
Lisa Favre
February 19, 2019That jewelry dish is so fantastic! My hubby would definitely score extra points if he got me this!
Chubskulit Rose
February 19, 2019Flower press is a great idea. I often get a pot of mini roses so it’s a win-win situation. I am not fond of bouquets so mini roses to plant for Spring is the best gift.
Georgia
February 19, 2019I don`t usually like to receive gift on a special ocasion, I rather prefer the random ones, and I loved your suggestions. I would also love to see maybe a post on how we can wrap the gifts! 🙂 Thank you once again

Kristine Nicole Alessandra
February 18, 2019We don’t usually exchange gifts on Valentine’s day but we have random “just because” gifts for each other. This is a great resource of gift suggestions. Bookmarking this!
kumamonjeng
February 18, 2019Great ideas but my favorite would be no 9, make a book so we can read together. I think this would be so fun to read after many years later when we grow old together.
Sara Welch
February 18, 2019The flower press gift is such a great idea! I never thought of that, but it would be nice to preserve some memories of flowers received over the years.
Tasheena
February 18, 2019This is such a clever idea. I would love to receive any of these items as gifts.
KIM CROISANT
February 18, 2019Didn’t even realize I was buying my husband something post Valentine’s Day! According to your list Crest is a popular item for this…..hence, that’s what I bought!!
Terri Steffes
February 18, 2019We buy gifts for one another at any given time. This would be a good list to share for “ideas.”
Kristy Bullard
February 18, 2019I would gladly take a gift card for a massage whether it’s Valentine’s Day or not! I also like the idea of a storage box for saving cards!
Dennis Littley
February 18, 2019It’s never a bad idea to score some extra points! Besides, it’s nice to give a little something to a loved one just because. Thanks for sharing this.
Paula @ I'm Busy Being Awesome
February 18, 2019I love the idea of combined gifts for after valentine’s day, such a sweet idea

February 18, 2019This is such a sweet idea, I’ve never heard about it but it’s so clever, love it
Kara
February 18, 2019Love getting gifts for no reason, some great ideas here

Ayanna
February 18, 2019These are some great ideas. I never thought about the sales after Valentine’s day other than the candy.
Catherine
February 18, 2019I must admit I’ve never given a post Valentine’s gift, but I’ve received a few – often because the original date was forgotten XD. Love this post.
Amber Myers
February 18, 2019I like these ideas! I usually say that my cooking dinner for my husband is a gift since I hate to cook 😉 We didn’t really exchange anything for Valentine’s Day since we got new floors put in.
Isabella Grey
February 18, 2019These are some great ideas! The hubby and I rarely exchange gifts outside of Christmas, but some of these would be great as “just because” gifts.
Melissa Chapman
February 18, 2019It is funny to see how we prepared so much for the holiday and the remedy to all the gifts we got. I did not eat a lot of chocolate but tooth care is always important
Karen
February 18, 2019I think any of these would be ideal after Valentines Day gifts. The toothpaste makes a whole lot of sense, with all the sweets devoured.
candy
February 18, 2019It is always nice to be thoughtful through out the year and get an unexpected gift. This is what we do instead of set holidays for giving.
Glenda Cates
February 18, 2019I can’t wait to share your post with my family because I saw a lot of Gifts I would like to have for myself as well as some I would like to give Gifts to.
Sarah Bailey
February 18, 2019I am all for getting any of these ideas as a post Valentine’s Day treat. I 100% think a random treat for no reason can at times go a really long way.
Alli Smith
February 18, 2019A massage and/or spa day sounds like a major points winner to me. I haven’t had a massage in a while and I’m long overdue.
Stacie
February 18, 2019These are great picks. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten (or given) a post-Valentine’s Day gift before. I can say this: if my hubby came home with any of these for me, he’d get AAAALLLLLLL the points.
Jeanette
February 18, 2019You have some creative ideas here! I love the ideas of what to get after Valentine’s Day. The jewelry box for the Jewelry that you bought for Valentine’s Day. These are fun ideas for gifts.
robin rue
February 18, 2019I like all of your ideas. I think toothpaste is always a great gift – especially for people with a sweet tooth like myself.
