So all of a sudden Valentine's Day is next week!
What?!
The Mister and I don't do huge gifts for Valentine's but we do like to do a little something for each other.
And the Mister gets extra spoiled because his birthday is 2 days after Valentine's Day.
BUT those are always separate gifts and events. Just like how Christmas and my birthday are separate.
I love birthdays too much to let them share the lime light with another holiday.
I'm not a huge chocolate lover (give me a pound of gobstoppers or sour
patch kids any day) so that is always out for Valentine's Day.
So instead of the obvious choices (although I am never opposed to flowers), I put together a few non traditional things I wouldn't mind seeing wrapped in some cute hearts and pink paper this year.
(P.s. Target has adorable Valentine's paper and chevron tissue paper in the dollar section.)
I also included a few guy gifts for your man.
Most of Mister's Valentines (and birthday for that matter) gifts have been purchased and wrapped but there a few things that haven't been.
Are those items on this list?! Who knows...
He will just have to wait to find out!

2. Running Leggings: We are still going strong with p90x but once it gets warmer I want to get back to running more. Plus I really should start working towards that 10k I told myself I'd run...
These pants would probably really help me do that ;)
Or any new work out gear for that matter!

3. Mrs. Necklace: In love with this thing.
4.MELT candle: I recently picked on these up from Target and I am so obsessed with it. The smell is amazing, I love the colorful glass jar and it is lasting forever. I wouldn't mind owning about 7 more.
FOR HIM
5. Anything Reeses: This is a sure way right into Misters heart.
6. Ticket Stub Pillow: Blow up a ticket stub, print it on fabric transfer and make into a pillow!
7. You and Me and the Dog Print: I mean, this is just our life to a T and would be cute in Mister's office.
8. Cute shirt: Mister doesn't need any help being cute but this shirt would definitely add to his cuteness :) Target has had some really great guys stuff lately!
I know some people think celebrating Valentine's Day is silly but we personally LOVE it (yes pun intended). I think it's a fun little way to show all the loved ones in your life a some extra love. Plus it breaks up the monotony of the week when you throw such a cute holiday in on a Thursday!

I want to make that pillow! You little crafting genius! And that MRS. NECKLACE!!!! Why must you taunt me?!!?
I've been obsessing over that pillow on pinterest forever now. If only I were crafty...
"We" celebrate V-Day, too (aka I love it and he puts up with it). I am getting Jesse a pair of slippers this year but I think Jaisa and I will be posting our lists in the next few days, too!
Is the curling wand easy to use? I've been wanting to try one.
aw I love the dog print. I always have the hardest time finding stuff for my man!

I love the "Mrs" necklace! My husband and I don't really celebrate. We usually just write each other a nice letter :-)

I love celebrating Valentine's day and always have!! We are planning on staying in and making dinner this year! Love your lists. :)
so glad you created this! I always have such a difficult time finding valentine's day gifts. That print is pretty perfect though. It sums us up, too :)
it is extremely important to separate holidays - especially from birthdays! my bday is right by christmas and i've always hated when people try to make them one. love your gift picks!
Great gift guide. I like all of the items.
I'll steal "his" reese's pieces! Also, I have that curling wand and can NOT figure it out. If you get one, fill me in! ;)
I love the mrs. necklace!! too cute!

I love that travel pillow, my husband and I met in London so I think that would make a great gift! I wonder if they can personalize them.
