With Valentine's Day just a couple of weeks away, I thought I'd share a fun gift guide with all the things men stereotypically give women on this occasion, only a bit more tongue-in-cheek. Here are some popular gift ideas, in no particular order:
(
brass diamond studs by
Rachel Pfeffer; and
mini gem studs by
gemagenta)
(
pretty pink cake pops soap by
Mad City Soap;
giant ice cream cone lamp from
perpetual kid;
cotton candy twist sugar scrub by
Mad City Soap; and
conversation hearts iphone case from
shannonblue)
(
black lace headband by
branchbound;
gold-dipped lace bow necklace by
made by maru;
vintage-inspired black lace and butterflies postcards from
archiviogotico; and
vintage lace necklaces by
That Old Blue House)
(
floral birdhouse necklace by
Peaches and Pebbles; and "
Nightshade" by
Janet Hill).
Are you a traditionalist when it comes to Valentine's Day or do you prefer slightly offbeat gifts? I'm sure you could guess that I prefer handmade over anything else, but I've never been one to turn down chocolates either. :)
That is a great gift guide! I want it all!
ReplyDeleteI love the diamond studs! too bad I can't wear studs. I love the headband too. I love the lace bow necklace too. I've been really into lace lately. It's so danty and sexy at the same time.
ReplyDeleteSuch delicate and pretty pieces. I love the bow necklace and birdhouse necklace too :)

LOL :) I love your tongue-in-cheek take on these great Valentine's Day finds :)
ReplyDeleteWe don't usually celebrate, but I agree that handmade is always best...with a little chocolate thrown in :)
Lace and flowers are my favorite!
ReplyDeleteI love the lace necklaces and the cards. They remind me of the wedding invitations I made over the summer. Very, very pretty. However, the sguar scrub/whatchamallit sounds fun and inviting as well. Granted, I received a lot of bath goods for Christmas, so I think I'm set for quite awhile. :)
ReplyDeleteValentine's day is not such a great fuss in Europe but I like the idea of celebrating love. I am more inclined to handmade gifts than to buying something. Anyway, your finds are gorgeous as always!
ReplyDeleteI love love the sweet treats. This is an amazing compilation by the way! I won't really say we are the traditional gifts. He does get me flowers but we like to forget the gifts and do fun things instead. I can always get things for myself so our tradition is going to the shooting range and shooting soft fluffy bears. Romantic right? I've been impatiently waiting all year long for the 14 im too excited!
