Breathe it in, everyone – it’s the first day of February, and love is definitely in the air! If your heart stopped for a second because you suddenly realized that means you only have 13 days left to find the perfect Valentine’s Day gift for your sweetheart, don’t worry. We’ve got you covered! Take a look at some amazing gifts that are sure to show the Cardinal in your life how much you appreciate them.
- A UIW Pride T-shirt
Anyone who loves a UIW student, alumni, or employee, knows that they love comfortable shirts that also show off their UIW pride!
This t-shirt is the perfect one to help you celebrate your love this year. A cupid-struck heart on UIW red? Count us in!
- A UIW-framed portrait
Our campus is a beautiful one, meaning there are plenty of great photo opportunities around. Ask your Valentine to pause for a photo with you! Print it out, and place it in this UIW frame for a thoughtful gift that is sure to make him/her swoon.
Pro Tip: Include a heartfelt letter that details why you chose this special gift, including the reason behind choosing your specific photo location and the role UIW has played in bringing you together!
- This special snuggle buddy
Okay, we know this one is pretty cliché, but it’s also adorable.
Nothing says Valentine’s Day like a teddy bear. Add a bouquet of roses, a card, and perhaps dinner for two, and you’ve got date night covered!
- A UIW Wine Glass
Picture this – dinner you made yourself, chocolate-covered strawberries, and a glass of wine in your sweetheart’s new favorite glass. Sounds like a great date to us!
Pro Tip: Add a personal touch by adding your own message or artwork to the other side of the wine glass. Acrylic enamel paint is best for painting on glass! - This cozy blanket
Spring may be near, but there are still some chilly days ahead this year. Keep your Valentine warm and cozy with this incredibly soft blanket.
As a bonus, you’ll get to use it for movie nights and picnics for years to come!
- Something punny
Who doesn’t love a good pun? The possibilities are endless with this UIW tie!
May we recommend:
- Tied to you
- Never too tied up for you
- There’s no tie when it comes to you.
The best part about these gifts is that they’re all available now at the Cardinal Shoppe in the Student Engagement Center. No matter who you’re celebrating Valentine’s Day with this year, remember to share the love this and every month.
