“Roses are red
Violets are blue
You better get somethin’ for your boo…
Or you’re screwed, yo”
– William Shakespeare
We could have done something cheeky like “here are some v-necks for V-day!” But let’s be real – for Valentine’s day, you’re not looking to buy new shirts for you or your someone special…you’re takin’ those shirts off.
So for Valentine’s Day, instead of getting a tee as a gift that will inevitably be thrown on the floor later, how bout a pillow?
We’ve put together a V-Day gift guide for you and broken it down so you can get gifts for the nature-love, gamer, pop-culture guru, and artsy special someone in your life. Because there’s a pillow for everyone that says, “I love you, let’s put this on your bed *wink*”
. . .

– Brianne
For the Gamer in Your Life

– Lisa
“‘Irony’…I like the pun.”
– Jake

“‘Zissou of Fish’ becuase who doesn’t want a lil Bill Murray and Wes Anderson with them every day?”
– Brianne
For the Fancy Artsy Person in Your Life
“‘Flux’ by Chuck Pavoni is my new favorite. I love the way the elements in this design look intentionally distorted, the movement in it. I can look at it forever.”
