Valentine's Day gift giving causing you stress? Feel like finding the perfect gift is insurmountable? Well, don't fret...let mavisBLUE.com help! 

We know it's hard to search-out a genuinely sentimental gift when you're juggling work, kids, family...it all! So, sit back and let us take the pressure off. We've compiled a short but 'thoughtful' Gifting List that will help you WIN Valentine's Day this season--we promise! 
Because frankly, I'm not a Valentine's Day fan but I am a fan of having an excuse to slow down, regroup as a couple and spend some quality time together! Let's be honest...we're always seemingly 'too busy', we often put our relationship last after kids and work and, on the whole, we don't take the time that we should to invest in 'us'.

So, this Valentine's Day, take the time! Get a sitter, book a table for two at that restaurant you keep saying you'd like to check out and get him/her something special...just because! ​

Canvas Voice Notes | VOICE ART GALLERY 
We had our honeymoon before our wedding. I know--weird! But, it was probably the best thing we EVER did together. The trek was a monumental litmus test for how married life would play out and, we DID IT, we actually climbed Kilimanjaro--together. So when Year One (aka. Anniversary time) came around, I knew I needed to solidify how I felt about us and our life-changing climb. I needed a gift that would be a constant reminder that, together, we could tackle anything that was thrown our way (picture post-it note over Meredith and Derek's bed kinda reminder!). 

And as for sentimental gift giving, this TX based company nailed it! Voice Art Gallery transforms voice recordings into hangable art. I was able to tell my husband (using my voice) that our summit was the moment I feel in love with him FOREVER. Voice Art Gallery then used my sound bite to create an art piece made from my recording. They also included a QR code at the bottom of our canvas so that at any point in time, we can use our cell phones to scan the code and hear my actual voice reciting my message--captured for eternity.

​This stylish and modern art piece now hangs over our bed and is the centerpiece for the whole room. There's not a d
ay that goes by when I don't take note of it and remember all the good things that I associate with it.

​PLACES WE'VE BEEN PRINT | mavisBLUE.com
When my husband and I celebrated our first anniversary together, I wanted to give him a gift that was timeless, unique and personalized to 'us'. Our fondest memories were, hands down, the places we had travelled together so using typography, to me, seemed like a perfect way to not only display our memories but to decorate our home. 

​In the end, my husband loved the thoughtfulness of the gift and most importantly, it sits in our living room and is a constant source of conversation. Our guests always ask: 'Why the cities?',  'I've been to [so-and-so city], didn't you love it?' or, 'What a great idea!'. It has prompted so many hilarious stories from not only us but from our guests and on the nights when it's just us, it acts as a reminder of all the fun we've had as a couple.

PERSONALIZED COLLAR STAYS | 
​Personalized Creations

Does hubby work in a job where he wears a collared shirt each day? Then this gift is for you! 

I bought these for my husband a few years ago and he still comments to this day at how much he likes them. I was able to personalize each 'stay' with a cute saying or 'inside' joke. This is an extremely simple gift which makes perfect sense for a man. Nothing flashy and just the right amount of sentimentality to make him smirk but not blush! 

The hubs always tells me that he gets a good chuckle each morning when he's getting ready for work and it gives him pause to think about 'us' and our family as he rushes through the morning to get out the door. A pause is always a good thing--especially when it's family!

Our listing is short but inspired, personalized yet, understated and we know whoever might receive a gift like the ones above are sure to feel special. Because, come on! We know that marriage is not always as romantic as we want it to be. Marriages are messy and tough and take work every. single. day. But, the are also one of most loving, supportive and special relationships we'll have. So this is why it is so important to make these moments special and one-of-a-kind and most importantly, memorable!

*HINT* Now it's time to share, re-post, e-mail or print this blog to be mistakenly left on the kitchen table so that your perfect partner might be 'coincidentally' inspired as well! Don't worry--we won't tell ;)

What is your 'best' Valentine's gift?
Let us know so next year we'll be able to top this year! ;)
