Ah yes, it’s Valentine’s Day again. Or as the singles like to call it: the overly nauseatingly sweet day where couples become insufferable on social media. No? Okay, just me then.
It’s still not too late if you haven’t bought a rad gift for your partner. That’s why here at Vulcan Post, we’ve compiled a list for the clueless. Fingers crossed it’ll give you some ideas and that your gift won’t end up on this embarrassing page.
The Paper Bunny
Who says you can only celebrate Valentine’s Day when you’re in a relationship? News flash: it’s not set in stone. With that point in mind, don’t be afraid of flaunting your appreciation for your pals! What better way to express your thanks and solidify your friendship than a beautiful greeting card designed by local brand The Paper Bunny?
A single card costs $5.90, while a boxed set of 8 costs $32.90. Get your pretty on here. I guarantee it’ll leave your giftee(s) oohing and aahing.
IM-Perfection
If you plan on proposing to your partner on this special day (and chances are, you won’t be the only one), look no further. Maybe you can’t afford a trip to Paris and propose to your love in front of the Eiffel Tower. No problemo, because IM-Perfection can bring the iconic landmark to you.
Other creative gigantic props include a wishing well and pumpkin carriage — and they say fairytales don’t exist. Drop them a note on their contact page for their rates.
Two Three Bricks
Is your significant other into quirky things? If so, you’re in luck. This require minimal effort on your part, since you only have to send a photo of your Valentine and let Two Three Bricks do the grunt work. You can take it to the next level by including the type of props, costumes and background you want.
Hop on over here to order a personalised LEGO print. Tip: the process will take 2 weeks and will be delivered via email. Prices start from $5.
The Ordinary Co
The Ordinary Co is relaunching its customisable engraved bangles in celebration of Valentine’s Day — yippee ki yay! If your giftee is a big fan of minimalist accessories, this is it. The local fashion brand prides themselves on their high quality, stainless steel that adds a touch of sophisticated beauty to your look.
Prices start from $29.90. Hurry, because the pre-orders are closing soon!
Mint – Museum of Toys
Vulcan Post readers, you’re the first to know about this treat!
Mint is putting together an exclusive dinner party for 5 lucky lovers. In addition to delectable food, couples can also expect a stem-winding showcase of Ukrainian Dolls. The event is private and takes place after the museum closes.
Perfect for hardcore fans of The Great Gatsby and Night At The Museum and people who enjoy hush-hush bashes. For more deets on the secretive gathering, drop a message to aisya@emint.com
Paktor
The offline dating agency, GaiGai, is organising a terrarium workshop held at ION Sky. It will take place on the 13th and admission costs $59. This is definitely a go if your Valentine giftee is a DIY aficionado. Word is, these mini gardens last longer than a bouquet of flowers.
