30 gifts from $0 to $279.
For the romantic to the practical (and for everyone in-between).
After the jump!
A Large Red Concrete Heart Necklace ($30).
A USB Mix Tape (a memory stick in a retro cassette case; $19.99). This might be my favorite pick; such a cute (and inexpensive…and romantic) idea!
A Red Fuzzy Pom-Pom Throw ($44.95). Everyone wants a pom-pom throw. Even if they can’t admit it.
A homemade pie (if you can’t bake, just snag some Cherry Pie Filling from Williams-Sonoma for $18).
An Adjustable Antique Brass Charm Ring ($15.50).
A Designed For Each Other Mug ($16). The shop has lots of other mugs, shirts, and dishtowels emblazoned with quotes from classic romances; browse around and you’re sure to find something that suits your particular situation.
A Pier 1 Jewelry Box ($39.95).
A Love Distressed Wood Sign ($56). Or try this hook shelf with these shabby chic hearts.
The Loveopoly Personalized Monopoly Game ($19.95). I sort of want this.
A video game (click here for Kendrick’s suggestions, to which I’ll add Goldeneye 007 – he’s been playing it 24/7 since I bought it for him a couple of weeks ago).
A Customized iPhone Case ($39.95).
A Golden Tree, Silver Bird Necklace ($20).
A Made-to-Order Cotton Bow-Back Bra ($54). This beautiful Etsy shop also sells matching underwear for $35.
A Crate & Barrel Charging Station ($34.95). Unromantic, perhaps…but very practical. And cool.
The New Intercourses: An Aphrodisiac Cookbook ($19.77 on Amazon).
A Digby & Iona Stump Ring ($157.50). Mentioned it before; love it still. And still wish it came in yellow gold.
An Eames Fiberglass Side Chair Rocker ($279). Mostly just because I want this badly.
A Microbrew Beers Gift Basket ($69.99).
An assortment of homemade truffles like the Peanut Butter & Pretzel ones pictured above ($0, provided you already have the ingredients handy).
A Rustic Personalized Sterling Silver Band ($32)
Some Miami Cupcake Creamery Bubble Bath Cupcake Melt ($5.75). For a shared bath, obviously.
