10 Valentine’s Day Gifts My Husband Would LOVE!

It doesn’t matter how long you have been married, picking out gifts for the man in your life is always a bit of a challenge.  If you want to avoid the confused stare and polite smile after he opens the present you give him this year, then you will definitely want to get your hands on one (or more) of these ten Valentine’s Day gifts any husband would love.  Grab one of these and he will shower you with love for weeks to come!

A Professional Shave
Though you likely love a good massage and day at the spa, it’s a real challenge to see how this will equate to the guy you married.  Thing is, men don’t often allow someone else to take care of them, yet sending him to the barber shop for a professional shave is just masculine enough for him to allow someone else to do it.  He’ll love the super-smooth face that results – and so will you!

Manly Books
If you are married to a reader, you have probably been in a nearby bookstore to pick out a gift for your man.  While you could be tempted to purchase something about making a great marriage (the holiday is about love, after all) you are better off picking something that plays into his interests.  Books on war, spy novels and historical studies are all great choices.

Tools and Gear
Every guy, regardless of what he’s into, loves having a new accessory to help him with his hobby.  If you really want to make him happy, then something that fits his interests is the perfect item to pull from this list of ten Valentine’s Day gifts your husband will love.  You could select new gears for his bike or head to the hardware store to pick out a power tool…just be careful not to ruin the moment by attaching a “Weekend Projects” list, too.

Suggestive Photos
Let’s be adults here: you’re married and sometimes the spark wavers a little.  What better way to reignite the flame than by handing him a few sexy shots of you?  Depending on your budget, you can snap a handful of pictures yourself or pay a respected photographer for a boudoir shoot.  Either way, he will be very happy you did.

New Clothes…of His Favorite Team
Most ladies make the mistake of thinking a wardrobe makeover is the only reason they should pick up a shirt or two for their men, but it’s a bad idea on a holiday – no matter how bad he could use some better threads.  Show him you know what else occupies his heart by getting him some items emblazoned with the logo of the sports team he loves instead.

Bottle Service
Women love chocolates and men, by and large, enjoy booze.  You will probably be tempted to pick up a heart-shaped box, yet the better choice would be a unique six-pack from an award-winning microbrewery or bottle of the latest vintage from your local winery.  The latter is an especially good option, because you can enjoy it, too!

Homemade Cookies
There is something about a batch of freshly-baked cookies that makes every man’s heart melt.  He may not be the type to express his feelings much, but the sight of some chocolate chip goodness will have him saying “Thanks, babe!” so often you won’t know what to do!

Dinner at Home
Of all the ideas on this list of ten Valentine’s Day gifts any husband would love, this is probably the most unspoken.  You see, as much as he loves you and wants to see you happy, handling the crowds on February 14th is not really his cup of tea. (If you asked, he would probably pay more to take you out later!)  Letting him off the hook on this night of nights will pay dividends well down the line.

Time Alone with His Wife
It goes without saying, but our work has been creeping into our home lives more and more.  With smartphones giving us access to everything throughout the day, he will relish the opportunity to disconnect from it all and reconnect with you.  Send the kids off to your parents and hide your cell phones, then just spend the night enjoying each other.

Good Seats
No, this is not about your desire to get a new set of chairs to match the dining room table!  Given the choice, he would love taking in a performance by his favorite band or catching a home game of the team he follows far more than anything else.  By allowing him to do so, you are showing him a brand of respect that will make him all the more willing to sit down and watch the next sappy romantic movie you want to see.
