OK, so it's the month of LOVE or Crushes or Hallmark invented holidays!!? I guess any way you choose to look at it, you'll most likely still be celebrating it & you'll most surely want to be original. We all know the oh so ordinary flowers & chocolate are sooooo yesterday (although I still quite appreciate them, so if you need my addy just hit me up). Anyway, the Point is...I thought it would be fun to share some fun & original Valentine's ideas today. Enjoy & may all your crushes turn into reality this February 14th!From theparisapartment.com Handmade in Paris for The Comedie Francais...these engravings from the 1700's are new again with vibrant colors. A beautiful gift idea for the true romantics on your Valentine list.
Also, from theparisapartment.com ...The beautiful French Love Tickets! What better way to show your love & appreciation than to Leave your own amorous notes in this handmade love coupon tix booklet. Made in Paris.
If your Valentine likes to think outside of the box crazyaboutgadgets.com may be the one stop shop for your February needs.
Mood Toast may be just what Cupid ordered for a fun breakfast in bed.
(the heart shaped eggpan is also available there)
If the way to your lover's heart is still through the good old fashioned "Sweet Tooth" then a giant sized cookie exclamation of love might be the only way to go...
And one final fun idea from crazyaboutgadgets (or as an add on to an already fabulous idea) is the Giant Inflatable Heart. Who doesn't love Super Sized aspirations of amore??
One of my favorite finds was also this adorable Recycled Valentine Card site at JaneSays Etsy.com
These cards are some kind of wonderful!! I especially love the idea of recycling the old into something so beautifully new & inspiring.
To make sure you're never far from your Valentine's thoughts...this sweet Heart Shaped digital Photoframe Keychain is a real score! You can store your favorite photos for anytime viewing. No matter how far away your loved one may roam, you'll always be close in heart.
Available now at cutiegadget.com
And because I'm a firm believer in gifting yourself whenever possible ;)
Take a visit over to The Antique Paperie. So many beautiful sites & links to gorgeous giftable ideas. Oooo you may just find yourself escaping into lovely days of yesteryear from the moment the soft music begins to play...
Happy CRUSHING!
