Valentine's Day Essentials to make you Swoon
Christmas might be over, but another big day is just on the horizon… Valentine’s Day!
Valentine’s Day started life as a feast day. Christians celebrated the Roman saint, Valentine, who was associated with a tradition of courtly love and chivalry. While it’s safe to say that Valentine’s Day has moved in a different direction over the years, the message remains the same: love is something to be celebrated.
As UK wholesalers we know that, every year, millions of couples rush to declare their love for one another with cute cards, sweet treats and special gifts. It pays to be prepared, so we have rounded up our very best Valentine’s Day products for you to stock up on. We think you’ll fall head over heels in love!
Declarations of love
Valentine’s Day starts with a heartfelt card, and we stock a range to suit every type of customer.
Traditional romantics will love our cute and cuddly animal-themed cards. After all, who can resist an adorable bunny or fluffy teddy bear? Modern lovers might prefer a selection of bright and bold Valentine’s Day cards, like this glittery ‘One I Love’ number. We even stock a selection of quirky Valentine’s Day cards from Velvet Olive: perfect for customers who are looking for something a little less sickly-sweet.
Something for the love nest
No love nest would be complete without a ‘Mr’ cushion and ‘Mrs’ cushion.
With a neutral base, pops of colour and fun his-and-hers designs, they’re sure to grab the attention of newlyweds.
Plus (you never know), they could be perfect for anyone looking for a unique way to propose!
