Valentine’s Day is notoriously cute valentines day gifts for my boyfriend for the newly coupled, the currently coupling, and the not-quite-coupled-yet. Chief among the ways: Navigating the gift-giving.
Golden garden tools for the plant parent you’re into. Hey you, not only have I been noticing you, I’ve noticed how much you love your plants. Shinola is offering all kinds of personalized gifts for Valentine’s Day. Listen—those luggage tags look cool, and they are a good gift, but if you’re still in a grey area, pick something else. This card wallet, on the other hand: cool, classic, and doesn’t raise any additional questions. She Loves Me has a much more caj collection in its everyday offerings.
38 and are also very cute. Sewing stuff for your crafty crush. Listen, a lot of people took up sewing during the pandemic—and two years in, we bet some are really good. Honestly this should go without saying, but since this is a guide and we’re here to help, we’re going to say it: these scissors would make for a real weird gift if the recipient isn’t into sewing, so we hope you’ve been paying attention. But we’re thinking of a local gem like Petite Soeur, Georgetown’s new specialty chocolate and confection company. Looking for other great local chocolate shops?
