Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! If you haven’t started shopping yet for your boyfriend or husband, it’s time to get going. 

It’s around that time of the year when you begin seeing Valentine’s Day promos all over the place. However, you don’t want to just buy some old, generic gift box for your significant other. 

You want to buy something that shows him you care. In order to do that, you need to take some time to think about who your boyfriend or husband is. 

First, you should ask yourself what the person you’re shopping for is interested in. Are they a musician? Do they like getting busy in the kitchen? Let these questions guide your gift shopping experience. 

Next, decide how much you’re willing to spend on this gift. Before you go out and start swiping your card, you should set a budget for yourself. The last thing you want to do is go overboard and buy something that you can’t afford. 

As the cliche goes, it’s the thought that counts! Whatever your budget is, there are still many ways to show him you care. For some great Valentine’s Day gift ideas, keep reading below! 

Flashy Jewelry

Jewelry doesn’t just have to be for women. Necklaces, earrings, watches, and bracelets are also great accessories for men. 

If your boyfriend or husband likes jewelry, there’s no better gift to get them than a cuban link! This is one of the manliest pieces you can find. There are a plethora of choices, as well. Just make sure that you buy the correct size. 

A lot of people stray away from jewelry when gift shopping because they think it’s too expensive. However, you don’t have to spend thousands of dollars to find a quality piece of jewelry. Whether you’re looking for silver, gold, or authentic diamonds, you can typically find a decent option in your budget. 

Even if your boyfriend isn’t a huge jewelry person, you can still find them a piece that fits them. Flashy jewelry isn’t for everybody. There are tons of subtle options to choose from on the market today. 

Handy Kitchen Tools

If you’re fortunate enough to have a man that knows his way around the kitchen, it might be a good idea to buy him some new cookware! If you know about a particular item in the kitchen that they need, you can buy them that. You can also buy them a cookware set that includes a variety of kitchen necessities. 

Even if they don’t quite consider themself a chef, they can still benefit from some new kitchen tools. Maybe you can even teach them a thing or two by buying them a new gadget. 

Here’s an idea: if your boyfriend or husband likes smoothies, you can get them a blender so they can start making smoothies from home. Throw some fruits and ice cream in their gift box, and make some delicious Valentine’s Day drinks together! 

Comfy Blue Light Glasses

If your boyfriend or husband spends a lot of time looking at screens, you can give them some blue light gaming glasses! These special glasses help reduce your exposure to harmful blue light. 

Best of all, there are tons of blue light glass options to choose from. Now, you can feel comfortable and stylish while you’re on your computer or watching TV. 

For the gamers out there, these glasses are a necessity. If your man works from home, these glasses also help considerably. With these glasses, they’ll be able to be more productive and attentive overall. 

If your significant other doesn't normally wear glasses, it might feel weird at first getting used to them. Find a pair that fits their preferences. Consider the tightness of the glasses you buy and the thickness of the frame. 

A Cool Shirt

Who doesn’t love a cool shirt? Buying a shirt for your significant other allows you to get personal with your gift. You can practically put anything on a t-shirt; so get creative! 

You can find graphic tees for men in a multitude of retail stores, in-person or online. You can also design your own tees with a custom graphic or text. Alternatively, you can also get your boyfriend or husband a hoodie. 

If you have an inside joke with your man, print it on a shirt. If your boyfriend or husband has a TV show or movie they really like, buy them a shirt with the logo on it. There are an endless amount of directions you can go with this one. 

Care For His Car

Every guy loves their car. This is no secret. However, it can be difficult trying to buy an auto-related gift for your man, particularly when you know nothing about cars!

One tool that every man will appreciate is a power waxer. Power waxers are used to clean off the surface of your car and keep it looking fresh. They are far more powerful than traditional cleaners or hoses. 

Many car wash facilities offer power waxing services. Yet, you can find a portable one for your home. Without a power waxer, it is impossible to get all the dirt and grime off of your vehicle. This tool will have your man’s car looking brand new! 

A New Golf Fit

Let’s be real; every guy looks good in golf attire. Golf attire usually includes collared shirts, plaid or cargo shorts, and round-brimmed fitted caps. 

Participants must adhere to this clean, preppy look for most golf courses. However, these clothing pieces can also be used for other purposes!

No guy can ever have too many polo shirts or hats. Get your man prepared for their next golf outing by upgrading their wardrobe. You might also want to get them some new clubs, if you can afford it. 

Military Shadow Box

If your husband or boyfriend has military medals, a great gift to get them is a military shadow box. Military shadow boxes are decorative holding cases for medals earned in military service. 

There are many different kinds of shadow boxes, all structured and designed differently. You can find shadow boxes that are simplistic, solely designed to show off the medals. You can also find shadow boxes that are colorful and intricate, with designs printed on them. 

Ultimately though, the intent of all military shadow boxes is the same: to present military medals clearly and visibly. People who serve their country deserve to be recognized for their efforts. These holding cases allow them to memorialize their service.  

By far, this is the best way to display military medals. You shouldn’t just keep your medals stored away in a closet somewhere. They deserve to be shown off with pride. 

New Vinyls

Everybody has a favorite artist or album. Or ten. 

If you know what kind of music your significant other likes, you can buy them a vinyl record of their favorite artist or album. Music has a way of evoking emotions out of people. Choose a record that means a lot to them. 

Even if they don’t own a record player, vinyl records make for great collector’s pieces. If they don’t already have vinyl records, now’s a good time to help them start their collection. Whether it’s an ACDC vinyl or a Tame Impala vinyl, these records are pieces of history.
