Valentine’s Day may be circled once on the calendar, but love does not have to be limited to just one day. It shows up in shared meals, quiet check-ins, and the thoughtful home and lifestyle finds that allow Filipinos to show love every day to friends, family, and ourselves.
This Love Month, Australian home and lifestyle brand Anko is the one-stop shop for thoughtful gifts, offering affordable, stylish finds that make it easy to celebrate love in all its forms. Anko Club members can also join exclusive in-store workshops where they can bring friends, or make new ones, to create personalized keepsakes and handmade cards—making each gift feel more intentional.
For a date night with your significant other or friends
Are you planning a romantic date night with your special someone, or a late-night chikahan with friends? Keep it cozy and intentional with pieces that make everyday bonding moments feel like a special treat. Pour iced coffee or mocktails into the 6 Clear Manhattan Hiball Glasses (₱600), then serve your specialty on the Vine Platter (₱800) with snacks in the Vine Chip and Dip (₱800). Add personality to your table with the Mocha Stripe Tablecloth (₱750) and Mocha Napkins (₱220). For your Valentine’s Day flowers, place a stem or two in the Ceramic Mini Vases (₱350) to brighten your space. It is an easy mix you will keep reaching for long after Love Month.

For your stay-at-home and candle-loving bestie
Some gifts do not need a big speech, especially for the person who loves stylish but functional pieces that keep life organized and still look good on a shelf. Start with small “put-it-here” essentials like the Chrome Look Trinket Bowls (₱290), Stripe Ceramic Bowl (₱550), and the Glass Trinket Box (₱290), perfect for rings, keys, and everyday accessories.
Add a candle (or two) to complete the gift—whether it’s the Happiness and Manifest Glass Candles (₱350), the Mediterranean Stripe Candles (₱550), or the playful Fruit Candles (₱550). More than just decor, these gifts serve as a thoughtful daily reminder to light a candle, slow down, and make loved ones’ everyday relaxation even more special.

For those who love their coffee and matcha
For the person whose day revolves around a morning cup or an afternoon matcha break, lean into the ritual. Choose a mug that matches their vibe, whether it is strawberry, mixed fruit, cherry, or flower designs (₱200).
The mugs go perfectly with the Wave Edge Tray (₱550) or Textured Edge Tray (₱660), which keep sugar packets, teaspoons, and sachets in one neat spot. Little touches like this can turn someone’s everyday coffee or matcha breaks into a chance to slow down and rest.

For a cozier wind-down, use a Berry Scented Bath Fizzer (₱130) for your night shower, wrap up in a Cotton Bath Towel (₱490), then end the day with the Eye Mask Star Smily Face (₱190) for a better sleep.
