Handmade from the Heart: Thoughtful Valentines Gifts for Him

Let your inner poet play this Valentine's Day. Write a poem or song for your man. Paint your own handmade valentine. Celebrate your creative union with creativity!

If penning a couplet or fussing with the watercolor set isn't your thing, you can still give your guy a creative valentine handmade from the heart.

These poetic love-gifts are thoughtful valentines, eloquent ways to express how much you love him without saying a word:

  • Remind him how your fates aligned and your paths crossed with this forged steel belt buckle from Fosterweld. This quality buckle is available in sixteen colors to accent his wardrobe--choose wisely, and he'll wear this symbol of your intersecting destiny everyday.

  • To suggest that he's the center of your world, try this nice leather wallet. The clever Moxie and Oliver design is a visual play-on-words that he can't help but read as "heartwood"--the past, present, and future essence of your family tree.

  • Make an offering to your personal Love God with Wickedly Good Wares' ammonite-inspired coasters. (In India, ammonites are associated with Vishnu--whose most popular incarnation Krishna is the original “Love God.”) Pair this love-gift with a well-aged bottle of wine and celebrate your history together.

  • Love your guy for his honesty, integrity, serenity? Give him a symbol of his inner strength--from a sustainable source. This Sitka pendant by Spruce Design Co. is fashioned from reclaimed walnut and will treasured by anyone who appreciates natural beauty.

  • Strengthen your telepathic connection with a pair of Kathleen Bostick silver cufflinks. Handcrafted sterling cradles blue chalcedony--a stone sacred to many American Indians and believed by crystal practitioners to promote power, health, and communication.
    (These might be some heady claims for a member of the mineral quartz family, but we guarantee that this thoughtful valentine will transmit the message to put on a French cuff shirt and take you out to dinner!)
