I love the seed grenades, and that lil’ acorn is so adorable. Great list of gifts Robin!

Robin,
These are charming ideas. My fav is the acorn with the plantable paper seed heard. I’ve made plantable paper before and it is a lot of work. I would much rather buy it! Thanks for this!

Thanks for featuring my seedbom ‘loveboms’, unfortunately we are not selling these as they were custom made as wedding favours. However our standard 4 pack is available via our website http://www.kabloom.co.uk where you can also find lots more information about the product.
Perhaps we will release a ‘lovebom’ to the market for valentines 2012 if people are interested!

Oh Kabloom! You must bring the Lovebom back, many have said how much they love it!

I’m with you Theresa–fun to do as a crafts project sometimes…but I would rather buy it too!

Okay, I recently discovered a website that will put all of these presents for Valentine’s to shame and that is a garden fountain. I think there are some pretty cool ones at http://www.favoritegardenfountains.com. If anybody is looking for a present for their wife, fiancee, or girlfriend, I think she will enjoy these!
