Yes, we know Valentine’s Day is a made-up holiday. But after the omicron variant put a damper on the first few weeks of 2022, this just might be the year to shower your nearest and dearest with a little extra affection.

At Candy’s Dirt, we are of the opinion that the more adoration you spread, the better. Our curated gift list includes something for everyone: Old loves, new loves, even the “I’m-not-sure-where-this-relationship-is-going” loves. And while you’re at it, choose something for yourself — after all, self-love needs cultivating, too.
