Chocolates, roses and jewelry are some of the most common gift ideas for Valentine's Day, but many consumers are looking for novelty ideas beyond these basics. In response, a number of brands have been quick to step up to supply an assortment of unconventional goods that are perfect for the romantic holiday.
A few of these quirky gift ideas include replacing the florals in a bouquet with plush animals, potato chips or even edible food arrangements in the shape of beloved cartoon characters.
Some of the other most original ideas include love notes written on spuds from the MysteryPotato service, or candles from Jewelry Candles, which packs its precious accessories into natural soy wax candles that must be burned before the treasures can be retrieved.
