Valentine’s Day Round up

Posted on February 3, 2014March 30, 2020 by Elaine

It’s February now! Which means that Valentine’s day is just around the corner. For some, February is “Love Month” (see Stephanie Fusco’s recent post) and should be filled with Valentine’s activities. If you’re of this mind set I encourage you to check out her blog for great Valentine’s ideas all month long!

If you’re more like me and don’t see the point of Valentine’s then this will be the only post dedicated to the holiday – promise ๐Ÿ˜‰

Don’t get me wrong…I see the point and there’s never anything wrong in people showing their love for one another but I don’t believe in making others feel bad for it either. And I’m really not one for PDAs so public romantic gestures make me cringe – haha!

Valentines-2014

That being said, I still find Valentine’s Day themed products really cute! I would just buy them for myself or for a friend.

Here are a few items that caught my eye this year.

7-Virtues
I was sent an email about The 7 Virtues Fragrance Company and at first I hadn’t heard of them but then as I read up I remembered that I saw this pitch on the Dragon’s Den. I haven’t tried any of the fragrances out yet but I love the story behind the company. The Made In Canada fragrances source their essential oils from places like Afghanistan, Haiti and the Middle East to help rebuild communities and encourage peace not war. If you’re thinking about picking up a gift for someone or a new fragrance for yourself out check out this company! I certainly will when I get the chance.
Lush-Lots-Of-Love
Lush Cosmetics always has the cutest themed products. This “Lots Of Love” gift set contains a bunch of yummy smelling products. Included in this fully wrapped up gift set (clockwise from top, left):
  • Close To You Massage Bar
  • Rose Jam Bubbleroon
  • Prince Charming Shower Gel
  • Neon Love Soap
  • Sex Bomb Bath Bomb
  • Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner
  • Chou Chou I Love You Toothy Tabs (not pictured)
Vitabath-InBloom-Asian-Orchid-Coconut-Style
Products from the Vitabath In Bloom collectionย are a great alternative to give instead of flowers (and lasts longer too!). I think I would pick the the Asian Orchid & Coconut bundle as orchids are one of my favourite flowers (tulips are the other!) and I love Coconut!
Davids-tea-Valentines
I love David’s Tea and when I received their February Newsletter of course I was drawn to the pretty in pink tea mug! It’s weirdly not online so if you’re looking for this perhaps try your luck in store. The Valentine’s Day teas sound really yummy too!
DenTek Kiss Kit Image
You’ve heard of DenTek right? Known for their oral health care products you wouldn’t think about them during Valentine’s Day – except of course having fresh breath when kissing your significant other! Did you know that Vancouver is #1 in Canada for those flossing daily and Toronto is sadly at only #8 making us one of the worst cities for flossing? ย Eeeks!
To bring some awareness to this issue and to help us freshen our breaths through daily flossing, DenTek approached me to see if they thought my readers would be interested in a Valentine’s Day Giveaway and of course I said yes (based on a previous post you guys all seem to love giveaways).
Here’s what you can win:
  • Valentine’s Day Pouch
  • Heart Shaped Chocolate
  • Breath Strips
  • Compact Mirror
  • DenTek Floss picks
This will be a short and sweet one so hurry and fill out the rafflecopter form below and of course have a great Valentine’s season if you celebrate.

    Nope. My husband isn’t the least “romantic” and even before then I found that Valentines day is all hype, and rarely lives up to expectations, so I have always just ignored the day.

    We don’t do anything too fancy on Valentines day. Just dinner and a movie usually. Valentines Day is just an excuse to do something nice(r) for someone you love. Some people find it hard to express themselves sometimes so, I think Valentines Day just gives them that little nudge.

      Ahhh see this is why I don’t like the day – I’m find with Valentine’s in terms of telling EVERYONE you love that you love them but I don’t like when people without significant others feel left out. I don’t like when people feel left out in general. Also that some people feel so much pressure on that day and that they might compare themselves to others.

    Lol! I am not a big fan of the holiday either. Holidays in general make me annoyed…I need to be better at not getting so stressed out. Mostly the stress comes from figuring out what to get for someone. I like to make sure each gift is thoughtful and not a “It is a holiday, and I have to get you something, so here…” So you can imagine that Christmas drives me nuts!

    I love Lush! A great alternative to Bath & Body Works. The ingredients are much better! I just found out about them when passing by a store at the mall in Oregon. I bought a Christmas gift set there for a teenage family member I do not see too often.

Proud โ˜บ๏ธ๐ŸŒˆ And loud, since I have the privi Proud โ˜บ๏ธ๐ŸŒˆ

And loud, since I have the privilege of being able to live my life openly, unlike so many of my 2SLGBTQIA+ peers. Iโ€™m a straight-passing cis white woman, so my queerness doesnโ€™t threaten most people. 

So, with that advantage in mind, let me use this small platform to say to anyone who is listening:

Never forget that Pride started as a riot. 

That Pride is more than slapping a rainbow on something, jacking up the price, and saying โ€œlove is loveโ€ for four weeks out of the year. 

That true allyship involves action and accountability, 365. 

That trans women, two-spirit individuals, and queer folks of color are the heart and soul of our community. That they continue to show up, to fight, to love, and to lead while facing very real danger. That we owe so much to their courage. 

Never forget that queer folks have always been here. 

That you canโ€™t erase us, ban us, or legislate us out of existence. 

That queerness is a part of nature. 

That it exists even when itโ€™s no longer trendy or politically advantageous. 

That we notice and remember who speaks up and who is silent. 

That we contain multitudes. 

That we deserve safety, compassion, legal protections, love, joy, and a future - just like every other human. 

That not all of us are โ€œoutโ€ and donโ€™t need to be; that we will invite you in if and when we choose to, and if and when we feel safe to do so. 

That queer folks make the world better. 

And that, despite seemingly insurmountable odds, weโ€™re going to be ok. 

Because resilience, creativity, collaboration, and resourcefulness are fundamental parts of who we are. 

So weโ€™re not going anywhere. Get on board.

Happy Pride!

Come with me to pick up the art piece created from Come with me to pick up the art piece created from the flowers in my bridal bouquet! ๐Ÿฅนโค๏ธ

Getting my flowers preserved and turned into this incredible piece was one of the best decisions I made during my wedding planning. โœจ

Amanda and her team are extraordinary artists (and wonderful humans!) who give your flowers a new life and preserve memories. Every time I walk past this piece on my wall, my heart glows with flashbacks of my wedding day. 

If you have an important event that includes flowers, do yourself a favor and book with Parched to get them preserved. They accept flowers from across Canada, and have worked on blooms marking all occasions of life, from graduations, baby showers, weddings, and memorials. They can even create pendants using flower remnants!
