You can get this valentine monster for only $12.00 from Gush4Plush and show someone you've been stuck by cupid's arrow whenever you see them.

The next item is super fun. It's these SEXY Secret Valentines by Weakness. This is how they work, take them and hide them (one a day) for your husband or boyfriend to find in the days leading up to Valentine's Day to let your man know that you're thinking about him - in exchange, he'll think about you, too . . . and what's gonna happen when he gets home! Didn't I say this was going to be fun? The comments on these love notes are very sexy, but not crude or vulgar. It's an excellent way to get Valentine's Day started for just $8.00 from Weakness' Etsy shop.



The third feature is this lovely hand block print of a mushrom heart. Very sweet and lovely for your kitchen and home.

You guys also deserve to have a great time on Valentine's Day and find someone you can enjoy it with. Today's feature is dedicated to all the singles out there. I hope you will like today's feature items.

It'll also be great for your next date to create the romantic mood. (*Discount & Special Available! See end of post.)


Next is this fun and one of a kind creation by ScenicYouth. This necklace is the flirtiest necklace I've ever seen. Why you ask? Well because it's a double sided sterling silver necklace that says "AVAILABLE" on one side and "TAKEN" on the other! lol It's totally outrageous! If you want men to come and ask you out flip it to the "AVAILABLE" side, but if you're not in the mood that night and just want to dance then flip it to the "TAKEN" side to buzz them off.

The last single item today is this hip Emo's Cupid Bracelet. Created by MonkeyBuns, this bracelet was meant to represent the times when Cupid leads us a stray sometimes and ends up shattering our hearts.

I think this bracelt is absolutely beautiful and has a meaning we believe we all been through. It also would look great with any outfit when you're going out at night.

VALENTINE FEATURE DAY 11 - Attention Men - It's for Your Woman



CALLING ALL MEN! ATTENTION PLEASE! =) Thanks...*ahem.. Valentine's Day is one of the most important day to remember especially for the men. All you men out there don't want to dare forget one of the most romantic day of the year. Now I every year you guys find it hard to figure out what to get your girl this year so today's feature will help guide you.

My first suggestion is this beautiful Hand Painted Silk Scarf. This scarf is a perfect gift because it serves as a card and a gift! The scarf already has the message you want to say to your girl, "Be Mine". Everytime she wears it, you can be sure she's thinking of you. You can also be sure that everytime someone askes her where she got such a lovely, unique scarf she'll be thinking of you. You can purchase this lovely scarf from MadeWithLovingHands for just $18.00! (*Discount & Special Available! See end of post.)

My next suggestion are these fabulous Origami Rose Bouquet made by Lunatiger. Why give her flowers that would just die in a week when you can give her these artistic valentine origami roses made from sating ribbon that will last forever. Let her be reminded of you love for years to come instead of just a week. I know that everytime my boyfriend buys me flowers I get so happy and of course love them, but when the flowers start to die I start to feel sad. I would love to have flowers blooming on my desk for me to look at all year round. Get these everlasting in a variety of colors for only $17.00 from Lunatiger. (*Discount & Special Available! See end of post.)



Now another great suggestion is this gorgeous handbag. Trust me on this men, almost all women love handbags. We all need at least one handbag in our closet and this hangbag by Daphnenen for $55.00 would be a fabulous gift. This bag is made from high quality COTTON VELVET fabric and is extremely durable, yet lightweight. It can hold lots of items and also comes in a variety of colors to match your need.


My next suggestion and last one for this feature is a gift almost every woman will absolutely love and would want for Valentine's Day...it's a ring! Ok, ok...don't be afraid..it doesn't have to be an engagement ring, but a promise ring would be nice. The ring pictured below is one of the most beautiful rings I've ever seen. It was named "Royal" by it's creator's shop ArtisanLook. I love that name "Royal" and it totally matches the ring's feature. Made from sterling silver and 9k yellow gold, this ring can be order from sizes 5-12 to fit your woman's finger. So why not treat you woman like royalty and spoil them with gorgeous ring on Valentine's Day.
