Valentine’s and Galentine’s Day Gift Inspiration for Your Loved One*

With just a week more to go until Valentine’s or Galentine’s Day, we are showcasing some last minute gifts which you can purchase for your loved one, in time for next week.

This year we are showcasing five fabulous items including a selection of beautiful sweet boxes as well as Valentine’s Day from Panda Joy. We start with Blackmoor Cast Iron Casserole Dish which is the perfect gift for the avid cook. Next, ARRAN’s Glen Rosa Body Care Gift Set is such a luxurious gift which promotes self-care.   For those who are trying to incorporate a healthy lifestyle, the VonShef UltraBlend Smoothie Maker will be the perfect gift this Valentine’s Day.

Jungle Culture’s Extra Large Bamboo Salad Bowl is such a beautiful gift for those trying to use less-plastic and more natural themed tableware.  Finally, the Seizmont Watch from Trendhim is an ideal and stylish gift to give your other half to make him/them feel special.

Proposing on Valentine’s Day is a significant and heartfelt way to show your love and commitment to your partner. To make the moment even more meaningful, you can choose an engagement ring that aligns with both of your values. Twiceloved has a great selection of elegant pre-owned engagement rings that are eco-friendly and affordable. These rings are repurposed and bought, reducing the environmental impact of mining and giving new life to old jewellery. Your partner is sure to appreciate the thoughtfulness and consideration you put into choosing a ring that reflects both of your values.

Blackmoor Cast Iron Casserole Dish With Lid

This Valentine’s Day why not give your partner or wife a sturdy Cast Iron Casserole Dish With Lid from Blackmoor.  This makes a fabulous gift for an avid cook or someone who wants to spend less time in the kitchen.

This traditional cast iron casserole dish is a hardwearing and ultra-durable and perfect to use for braising, simmering, roasting, broiling and baking in your kitchen.  The cast iron pot is the perfect casserole dish as it distributes the heat throughout the cooking surface, meaning you create the perfect vessel to make a delicious meals, as well as a cookpot that will last a lifetime if properly looked after.

This cast iron casserole dish features an enamel coating which makes it resistant to acidic and alkaline foods, hence enables you to marinade your foods in the dish and store it in the fridge before cooking.

This cast iron casserole dish is suitable to be used on all hob types, such as gas, electric, and induction hobs, as well as on hot plates, and the hardwearing nature of the pan allows it to be placed in ovens up to 260°c, without compromising its quality.  This grey cast iron dish comes in two sizes, 22cm priced at £34.99 (which we have featured here) as well as the 28cm priced at £44.99 and these are also available in black and red colour.

VonShef UltraBlend Smoothie Maker

Are you stuck for Valentine’s gift ideas? Are you a couple who enjoys clean living and healthy eating? If you love a smoothie in the mornings or a frozen coffee at the weekends then the VonShef UltraBlend Smoothie Maker might be the right gift for you.

I view this as such a thoughtful Valentine’s gift. Not only can you make yummy smoothies together, but also enjoy some healthy eating. The VonShef UltraBlend Smoothie Maker comes with a 1000Watt motor, two sizes of containers, a twist-on cap containing blades and a sealed lid and a lid with drinking access. 

Vonhaus who make the VonShef aimed to create a machine that is powerful as well as competitively priced. As you know many of its counterparts are double and often have lower wattage, therefore, are slightly slower and generally struggle when it comes to blending nuts and seeds. With the VonShef you simply add the ingredients into the container, screw on the lid with blades and then clip it into the machine and watch it blend up all your ingredients in seconds.

The smoothie maker costs a reasonable £54 with free mainland delivery.  You could bulk this gift up with a hamper of fruits, nuts and dairy/plant milk – making it a smoothie kit. That way it is ready to use straight away and your Valentine won’t need to search for the right ingredients themselves. Get your VonShef UltraBlend Smoothie Maker here directly from the Vonhaus website.

Jungle Culture Extra Large Bamboo Salad Bowl

If your partner’s new year resolution is to eat more salad or fruits, then this beautiful Extra Large Bamboo Salad Bowl from Jungle Culture is the perfect gift for Valentine’s/Galentine’s Day.

The bamboo bowl is handmade using bamboo ethically sourced in Thanh Hoa province, Vietnam and are farmed in small batches by two family-run farms which are then transported to Jungle Culture’s workshop for processing.  The outside of the bowl has been painted using water based lacquer creating the beautiful terrazzo pattern.

This massive 28cm diameter handcrafted bowl makes a stylish statement piece as a fruit bowl or as a salad bowl especially when you are having friends and family over for parties.  A beautiful gift to give someone who cares about the environment and is trying to add more natural tableware to their existing collection.

Priced at £22.99, you can also opt to add in the optional salad servers with the Bamboo Salad Bowl for an extra £10.  Do note that this bowl cannot be placed in the dishwasher, microwave or freezer and you should not soak it in water for too long. It is also not recommended to serve hot liquid foods such as soup, porridge or curry in this bowl.

Seizmont Watch from Trendhim

This watch is made with such finesse. It has a clear face (known as a skeleton dial) that goes right through to the back of the watch, which means you can see all the mechanical aspects inside – it’s fascinating to see and adds great style to what otherwise would be a simple piece.

The Trendhim watch by Siezmont, is a classic analogue watch designed in Denmark and operates with Japanese quartz movement. It comes in a signature case and is perfectly presentable as Valentine’s gift.  It costs £69, which makes this a reasonably priced watch – as other watches from this brand reach much higher prices for a similar look.

The Seizmont watch available at Trendhim is ideal for your Valentine to wear every day, equally, its design is adaptable to a suave suit or evening attire. There’s nothing like a watch to mark a moment and make someone feel special with such a timeless piece.
