Valentine's day is one of the most romantic times of the year. It's a day for people to share their love for one another — whether that's with yourself, your bestie, or your partner.
Thanks to a man named Saint Valentine from ancient roman history, people celebrate this holiday on February 14th every year. This was during a time when marriage became outlawed for young men because Emperor Claudius II wanted single men to go to war. Saint Valentine started marrying couples in secret and eventually was killed for his act of courage. Of course, there are many variations of this story, but this is the one that we felt was most romantic. Could you blame us?
Some people don't believe in the holiday because they think it's just an excuse to buy expensive jewelry and chocolates. Others who don't have a partner prefer to celebrate Galentine's Day on February 13th with their gal pals. In our opinion, Valentine's Day is a holiday for everyone — single or couples. Individuals can choose this day (and every day!) to celebrate themselves. And the best part is, you don't have to break the bank to treat yo'self.
At Adina Eden's Jewels, we've announced a 30% off sitewide jewelry sale for Valentine's Day, which includes new arrivals, too! You don't have to spend your savings on a loved one when you can buy valentine's day gifts at Adina Eden's that are sentimental, of great quality, and within your price range.
In addition or instead of jewelry, we suggest you invest in a self-care day. Love yourself with bath salts, essential oils, and a journal practice. Choose one thing to do on February 14th that brings you closer to yourself. Even though we all wish we can take care of ourselves every day, it can be difficult to prioritize ourselves. Make it a day that you remember to prioritize yourself — not just your partner or loved ones.
Ahead, learn more about the best valentine's day gift jewelry to gift yourself, a bestie, or a partner. Everyone deserves some love!

Every time you wear your V-day gift, we hope you think of love and feel the love that surrounds you.
