Say ‘I Love You’ with these Valentine’s Day Gifts
7 Ways to Say “I Love You” to your Valentine.
Seven Atlantans share their go-to gifts for Valentine’s Day (yes, there’s still time!).
1. “I am very fortunate to go to Paris every year at the end of January, and what better place to buy a Valentine’s present? A very grey-based hue of pink is all the rage this year, especially when mixed with gold, and who doesn’t love a Hermès enamel bracelet? That said, even with a beautiful gift in hand, my wife’s favorite part of Valentine’s day is an intimate heartfelt letter.”
— Robert Brown, Robert Brown Interior Design
2. “I love giving fun little gifts to family and friends for Valentine’s Day, and these Happy Thoughts buttons from Paper Source are the perfect pick-me-up to share. I’m all about spreading the love, especially on February 14.”
— Claire Ruhlin, Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Assistant Editor
3. “Valentine’s isn’t just for lovers; it is Love Day. I like to remind my girlfriends of how much I love them, of course with an Anabelle bag, which I stuff with special treats. This year, I am going with scrumptious Flamingo note pads from BD Jeffries.”

4. “Treat your loved ones to something they can use not just on Valentine’s Day but everyday! Give your honey breakfast in bed with Savannah Bee Company’s Tupelo Honey served in an elegant William Yeward jar. As an added bonus, the honey can be enjoyed any day of the year.”

5. “For Valentine’s Day this year, my almost-4-year-old daughter and I are going to make heart-shaped chocolate sugar cookies, which will be accompanied by a small posy of flowers (that’s a must!). There is something really sincere in giving a homemade gift, and my daughter is so proud to share her hard work, made with love!”

6. “What better way to profess your love than over a pot of fondue for two? This cast iron fondue set makes a perfect gift for the entertainer. A self-professed chocolate connoisseur, my personal favorite treat to prepare when playing hostess is chocolate fondue with all the fixings. Pair it with a bottle of bubbly, and you’ve got yourself the perfect date night.”
— Lindsey Wohlfrom, Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Marketing + Advertising Art Coordinator
7. “My go-to gifts? Anything chocolate (the hubby’s a chocoholic) or something just plain pretty for the loves of my life. You just can’t go wrong with a pretty-in-pink fouta, perfect for days by the beach and pool or as a cozy wrap when sitting by the fire.”
