Last Minute Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas
Say it with Flowers
Who doesn't love to receive a beautiful bouquet of flowers on Valentine's Day? The classic choice is of course a dozen red roses, but the guys at FLOOM just took it up a notch with their fresh, seasonal, handpicked flowers from local florists. Floom searched London high and low to find their team of hidden gems. Gone are those tired mass-market bouquets you get sent by your office team when you're off sick -- no, these are beautiful, artisanal seasonal flowers that your loved one will love. The brainchild of Paris-born and Bali-raised founder, Lana Elie, whose career was in fashion and luxury brands, Floom brings the passion and aesthetic of couture to those magic moments when you say 'I love you'.
Even the names of some of the bouquets make us smile: Sherlock ❤️ Watson, Elizabeth ❤️ Darcy, Thelma ❤️ Louise. Order Floom Flowers This Valentines!

Give Them Your Heart!
This amazing heart contains a secret. Break it open and you'll see it hides a ring, pendant or other piece of jewellery. From Islington-based jewellers Stephen Einhorn (and unique to them!) this is a great idea to present a memorable gift in. This is unusual, romantic, patented, breakable plaster packaging available in blue, red and a bunch of other colours. Encase a piece of their jewellery or one of their gift certificates inside and watch the recipient's eyes light up as they crack the heart open to reveal their prize. LOVE IT! £49
