Sterling silver Unwedding Ring

12 people recommended this item

Description

For all of us who hate answering the "when" question...

Seriously, does this not amplify as you (1) get older and (2) date someone for more than twenty minutes...

Am seriously considering wearing this to my younger sister's wedding... it's the least I can do... she did decide to have it a 2pm, outside, IN AUGUST.

FORGET ME KNOT NECKLACES

First to recommend

Description

I like this. You can still convey a cheese-ball sentiment "forget me not" without becoming, well, a cheese-ball.

I obviously mean no offense to the most glorious of snacky foods.

Sephora: CARGO GlossyGreetings Cards: Lip Gloss

Description

Rather than send a boring Valentine to co-workers (I choo-choo-choose you) give them something to swoom over... like Lipgloss and swell graphic design.

Smittens

12 people recommended this item

Description

This is ridiculous. For times when you can't bear not having a hand to hold. And for a man that doesn't mind wear A MITTEN. We have Smittens.

Obviously for those who have just started dating... cause me and the boyfriend have never sacrificed person style for perambulating...

Give this to your saccharine friends who are sooooo in love... and then snicker when she forces her HunnyBunny to wear it.

Aint that the truth!! I think I am going to buy this for my grandpa (PawPaw)... he'd get a real kick out of it.

"I Love You" Toast Stamper

15 people recommended this item

Description

I once dated this artist/hockey player in Toronto. After one very drink filled evening I awoke to his best attempt at breakfast in bed. It was 7 slices of toast, a glass of lukewarm water and a clementine orange.

If you are going to be THAT lame, at least stamp a heartfelt sentiment on it. Jerk.

THE EX VOODOO KNIFE SET - Pink

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

If for you a suck-free Valentine's Day is best served with a side of bitterness, this is for you.
Not only can you slice up some tasty stir fry you can continue to ram a sharp edge into your ex-lover's nether regions...
Healthy and psycho. Yum.

Heart Warmer Hot Water Bottle

3 people recommended this item

Description

Maybe the karma gods have conspired against you and now instead of spooning with your significant other(s) you are curled up in the fetal position in the bathroom cursing your uterus (and fertility in general).

Though it may not make you feel any better, it might be nice to curl up against a cute hot water bottle and take half a dozen ibuprofen.
