				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think the last time my husband and I attempted to celebrate Valentine&#8217;s Day we surprised one another by having both made cards with an anatomical heart theme (complete with graphic arteries and ventricles). Ours is a curious brand of romance.</p>
<p>That said, I&#8217;m not entirely unromantic either. Irregularly shaped construction paper hearts, bunchy tissue paper flowers and teeny cards with corny knock-knock jokes do make me swoon. And really, any opportunity to let others know that your heart skips a few extra beats because of them, should be taken.</p>
<p>So, for those marking Valentine&#8217;s Day on Tuesday, here are a few gift ideas for friends, family, significant others and even yourself.</p>
<p><a href="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Our_Love_Is_Here_to_Stay.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-780" title="Our_Love_Is_Here_to_Stay" src="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Our_Love_Is_Here_to_Stay.jpg" alt="" width="250" height="362" /></a>Express how you feel in prose short and sweet with these bold, graphic <span style="color: #000000;"><strong><a href="http://tinyurl.com/87szz7m" target="_blank"><span style="color: #000000;">postcards</span></a></strong></span> of affection from <span style="color: #000000;"><strong><a href="http://enormouschampion.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #000000;">Enormous Champion. </span></a></strong></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/sprouthome_2158_17714470.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-781" title="sprouthome_2158_17714470" src="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/sprouthome_2158_17714470.jpg" alt="" width="394" height="500" /></a><em></em>Present something less expected than roses like this flowering <strong><span style="color: #000000;"><a href="http://tinyurl.com/77v4zbu" target="_blank"><span style="color: #000000;">bonsai tree kit </span></a></span></strong>from Sprout Home (an endless source of wonderful finds). Just like your fondness, it&#8217;s the gift that keeps on growing.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/014851378_259_.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-782" title="014851378_259_" src="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/014851378_259_.jpg" alt="" width="259" height="259" /></a><em></em> Get creative with your littlest sweethearts. The glitter, feathers and other trimmings included for tricking out folded hearts and animals make this origami<a href="http://tinyurl.com/77qdfqe" target="_blank"> </a><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><a href="http://tinyurl.com/77qdfqe" target="_blank"><span style="color: #000000;">kit</span></a></strong></span> truly awesome.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/downton-abbey-pic-itv-image-2-631604805.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-784" title="downton-abbey-pic-itv-image-2-631604805" src="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/downton-abbey-pic-itv-image-2-631604805.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="267" /></a>Share the obsession of <a href="http://tinyurl.com/6o5lrp4" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;">Downton Abbey</span></span></strong></a> with anyone keen on intense family drama, smoldering romantic tension, lavish dinner parties and fanciful hats. Sparkling eye candy aside, it is an engaging, well-cast mini series. I&#8217;ll be crushed when it ends.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/solo.Lovelame_full-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-787" title="solo.Lovelame_full-1" src="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/solo.Lovelame_full-1.jpg" alt="" width="285" height="356" /></a>Need an antidote for all the Valentine&#8217;s Day schmaltz? Taking a break from love this year? This t-shirt from <a href="http://tinyurl.com/yj3nggb" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;">Love Is Lame</span></span></strong></a> will alert suitors to back off. Warning: some might take it as a challenge.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/il_570xN.300890963.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-788" title="il_570xN.300890963" src="http://goodhouseguest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/il_570xN.300890963-300x264.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="264" /></a>I kinda can&#8217;t believe I found this hand embroidered pillow, but that&#8217;s the magic of Etsy. And <strong><span style="color: #000000;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Plumed?ref=seller_info" target="_blank"><span style="color: #000000;">Plumed</span></a></span></strong> appears to have stitched pillow designs for every brand of romance too. Be still my heart.</p>
