For Your Valentine.

Every year I say how I’m not a big believer in Valentine’s Day. And every year I fall a little further into the trap that is February 14th. Here are a few things I’ve spotted recently that I think would make great gifts. The kind that someone keeps around until they’re 85. The kind that are sure to bring fabulous stories with them wherever they go.

{Mr. Darcy Proposal Dish Towel}

{Capsule Letters}

{Love Letter Flowers}

{Mongrammed Guitar Picks}

{In God We Trust customizable brass lighter}

{reel around the fountain sampler}

{States United}

{Olivetti Valentine typewriter print}

Holiday Make It #11: Flavored Sugars.

Not this year, but hopefully next, I plan on going 100% handmade with all of my presents. As in, handmade by me. It’s a big undertaking, but I’ve been gathering ideas for a few months and know it’s totally do-able. My latest find: DIY flavored sugars. (PS: Don’t you just love how she wrapped them?!}
