Thoughtful Valentine’s Day Gifts Aligned with the 5 Love Languages

The five love languages is a concept coined by Dr. Gary Chapman on ways that resonate with you and how you may want to express yourself with your valentine this year ala Sip and Ship.

1. Words of Affirmation 
It’s no secret that Sip and Ship is keen on putting pen to paper. Written words of affection with a unique chocolate bar strike a balance that will sweeten your sentiments and leave a lasting impression on the taste buds of your loved one.

2. Acts of Service 
Set your evening scene with a savory homemade dinner. Pair it with one of our local Pour Me wine varietals and Love Potion Candle to ignite an enchanting evening. The flickering glow will transform any room into a haven for romance, where every whisper is tinged with an aromatic ambiance making sharing a few extra uninterrupted moments together extra special. 

3. Receiving Gifts 
Love is like a box of chocolates - sweet, surprising, and simple, just like the joy found in the simplest of gestures. Create excitement for your child and uplift their spirits with something unique, like our bio-glitter Unicorn Snot. We’re not opposed to re-gifting either. Mail a piece of comfort from home. Allow us to tie a ribbon around their favorite stuffy, box of legos, or homemade chocolate chip cookies and get it in the mail - cupid’s arrow delivers smiles in all shapes and sizes.

4. Quality Time 
For the tea and coffee lovers, gifting a Sip and Ship Gift Card will keep their cup full. Carving out time to catch up over a steaming cup, conversations blended like the perfect brew, not only filling their mugs but savoring connections that never run dry. 

5. Physical Touch 
Let’s face it, life can be a beehive of busyness. Giving the gift of tranquility orchestrates a melody of relaxation that can be shared. Serenity found in our collection of soothing bath bombs, sparkling bath tablets, and cozy blankets not only unwraps a thoughtful present but weaves threads of intimacy and bonds that resonate beyond the tangible. 

We hope this gift guide inspires a visit to our Ballard and Greenwood Sip and Ship locations for a mesmerizing experience of curated gifts that speak the language of romance, and where love meets coffee craftsmanship. Come savor our Pretty In Pink Latte and Sweetheart Chai while getting a document notarized, opening up a mailbox, or exploring our exquisite gift collection. 

We look forward to seeing you this week!
