“Traditions” seems like an odd word outside of family oriented holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc. — especially placed in front of “Valentine’s Day”. But the importance here is understanding relationships take dedication and intentional time spend together. Creating relationship traditions will become a positive deposit to your relationship’s long term health.

First, let’s start by creating a sexy environment. A space that feels comfortable and relaxing is the foundation to build intimate moments from. Sidebar — I’m sure you’ve created many fun memories in less romantic places but we’ll get to that in a future article ;)

Let’s Get it On

What is old is new. Vinyl is back and starting a record collection with your partner can be a fun way to share music and add a sexy soundtrack to your lives. Each Valentine’s Day trade your favorite LPs. A great and affordable way to kick off this tradition is with a House of Marley Stir It Up Wireless Turntable, which is even made of sustainable materials.

Couple the turntable with a companion set of sustainably-built speakers ($116) and record holder table ($72 — also sustainable materials) for the complete look . The record collection underneath will need to reflect your shared tastes for years to come.

From sound, the next natural place to move is sight. Candles of all sorts help set the mood. Combining sight with touch gets the win for combining two senses at once. Massage candles like the MELONY Massage Oil Candle do just this. As the candle burns, it softens into a pourable massage oil.

These candles come in a variety of attractive scents. Keeping these candles close by to the bed can translate to more impromptu massages. Ideally, you and your partner work your way through a candle each year (or more often) and buy new ones each Valentine’s Day to continue the tradition.

When it comes to visuals and aromas, you can also go the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) route with a simple, tea light candle with the equally revered mason jar. These combinations create rustic and sexy visuals. Combine standard mason jars with tea lights and specialized tea light holders and the decor instantly elevates the mood in any room at a very accessible price point of $20 for two tea light mason jars.

Make things unique with a variety of different subtle scents. A variety pack is great to change things up from evening to evening.

Let’s Stay Connected

Sometimes you can’t be with your Valentine. Maybe you are in a long distance relationship or logistics have just conspired against you. In that case consider Lovense internet connected vibrators and male masturbators. Combine the Nora female rabbit ($100) with the male Max 2 ($129).

With every thrust from the Nora, your male companion will feel it even if he is thousands of miles away.

These products should keep any long distance relations alive and well on Valentine’s Day…or any time apart and desiring connection.

All of the items listed will inspire creativity and ways to play together and along the way, find new traditions to cultivate healthy relationships.
