We see lots of toasted marshmallows in your future when you surprise them with this cool Valentine's gift.

6. Zodiac Earrings

There's no shortage of meaningful jewelry to surprise your S.O. with. This cute Valentine's Day idea is inspired by their zodiac sign, making it feel extra personal. Each pretty set of studs is thoughtfully designed to trace their sign's constellation in the form of symbolic gemstones like lapis lazuli and mother-of-pearl.

This genius scratch-off chart is a good Valentine's gift that'll give you plenty of fun activities to look forward to with your favorite person. Your only problem will be deciding what to do first!

8. Personalized Watch Case

If "cute" typically translates to "sentimental" for your spouse, consider anything and everything that can be personalized with a heartfelt message. Keepsake gifts like this faux leather watch case are also a winner because it's something they can hold onto for years to come. The glass can be engraved with a message up to three lines long and both of your names. Inside, a felt-lined interior keeps up to five precious timepieces in mint condition.

In fact, it's dotted with dazzling white diamonds, making it a truly precious piece of fine jewelry. The asymmetrical shape of the heart gives it a unique, modern touch and the dainty size helps to keep things understated. A 10-karat yellow gold chain is the icing on the cake.

12. Sentimental Book

If your partner prefers small, sentimental Valentine's gifts to expensive luxury items, Knock Knock's fill-in-the-blanks books are a shoe-in for their approval. Fill out the pages of this adorable book with thoughtful answers highlighting what you love most about your other half. It's a cute Valentine's Day gift that may just make them tear up.

13. Jerky Heart

Just because they don't have a sweet tooth doesn't mean you can't take the classic gifting route! This savory twist on a box of chocolates is a fun Valentine's gift to surprise the meat lover in your life. Instead of decadent chocolate truffles, it's filled with beef jerky bits in 10 tasty flavors. Your sweetheart can chow down on favorites like honey bourbon beef jerky, ghost pepper jerky and so much more.

23. Birthstone Trinket Dish

Jewelry can definitely be a nice Valentine's Day gift, but if your S.O. already has all the sparkly accessories they need, they'll likely appreciate a handy trinket dish even more.
