Up on the blog this week, it's all about Valentine's Day. Honestly, it seems like a weird concept to me to be thinking about gifts right now though. We just celebrated Christmas, which is the largest gift giving day of the year. The important sentiment at Valentine's Day is to celebrate romantic love, friendship and admiration. Whether you're celebrating with your significant other, your best friends, your kids, or anyone else, Valentine's Day is the perfect time to show the special people in your life just how much you appreciate them, which is why you'll find tons of different gift ideas on this list. From romantic to sentimental to practical, these gifts span a variety of recipients.

CHART CHOPPER
The debate over whether music is best experienced on vinyl continues--and nope, no way, we are not touching that one. But we are all on board with this high-fidelity reproduction of a classic LP, in durable tempered glass. Nearly 12" in diameter (the same as a traditional 33-1/3 rpm record), it's comfortably sized for chopping, slicing, and dicing. You can customize the center label with a band and album name of your choice and show it off on the optional stand. Sturdy rubber feet keep the board stable and protect your counters. Use it as a prep surface or trivet in the kitchen, on your table, or at the bar, where it's sure to ignite passionate conversations about things like superior sound warmth, eloquent liner notes, and iconic album cover art--because seriously, vinyl is just totally better (couldn't help ourselves). Made in Albany, New York.
FOR THE KIDDOS
HAPPY HOMEMAKING
When it comes to keeping creative little minds engaged, home is where the smart is. And that’s especially true when kids get their hands on these engaging building sets. Budding architects and beginning kit builders will love constructing these real architectural models of modern desert, coastal, and mountain homes. Each kit is an open-ended design tool that integrates seamlessly with the other models. They all include alternative building plans not to mention a variety of people, pets, trees, and more to enhance the fun. Construct, play, repeat, and watch the excitement build. Made in Ireland.
This canvas two-in-one storefront playset is easy to hang, takes almost no space, and inspires hours of pretend play. The cutout window can be rolled up with tie straps when your little entrepreneur decides it's time to open shop.
ARTS & CRAFTS TABLE
Help the little ones learn geography and world facts by coloring the globe with this illustrated tablecloth. Maybe your little one hasn't been to Machu Picchu or the Taj Mahal yet, but they can get a peek at the wonders of the world next time they travel to the dinner table. This 100% cotton tablecloth is illustrated with hand-drawn countries, landmarks, and animals from around the globe. It even includes fun facts. (Did you know the first solo hot air balloon flight around the world wasn't until 2002?) Since it comes with ten washable markers, the whole family can color the map and experiment by adding drawings and designs while gathered around a meal. Wash it in warm water and the ink completely disappears, so your tiny traveler can create their own colorful art again and again. Made in Turkey.
MINI MANIS
Make kids' tiny digits sparkle with a water-based mani that washes off with soap and water. Give your little one's make believe beauty parlor a much-needed upgrade with a sparkly oops-free nail polish–sans toxic chemicals, of course. Kiddos can go to town painting their nails in five water-based, iridescent colors. When it comes time to take off the polish, it's a piece of cake: Just wash under the tap with soap and water–no nail polish remover required! Made for children ages 3 and up, but who doesn't want a safe, pretty, vegan nail polish that washes off? Did we mention you can color the box? Made in France.
