Wednesday Wants (Valentine's day edition)

When you say Valentine's Day I think necco sweethearts. Yes, those lovely chalky pastel colored heart candy.
Oh, and I'm talking about the og sweethearts not these new sweethearts that aren't that yummy. 

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and it's another holiday that can sometimes leave you "stumped" on what to get those special people in your life. I've shared a few ideas and some may be a bit quirky but that's my style. Enjoy :)

 - i like these monogram iPhone cases for 1 (okay 2) reasons

 - sriracha fans might enjoy these sriracha candy bars 

 - some awesome geeks might enjoy these star wars lightsaber ice pop maker

 - babies of web designers might need this book to help them understand their parents line of work

 - FINALLY! a plate that can work for valentine's day or halloween :)

 - if there's a beer drinker in your life, he may appreciate this kind of soap

 - hi, if you love me or if I've birthed your beautiful baby you NEED to buy me this (okay this should've been on a birthday list)

 - a peanuts valentine for the kidlets

 - check out this little place for some cute valentine's day cards (sorry i just had to)

Wednesday Wants (birthday edition)

WANT 

getting my hair done isn't my thing. i hate it (especially with my hair). but lately i'm
kinda envious of people who walk out of this place with lovely styles.
my hair lives in messy top knots, buns, twists and braids (thank you motherhood).
it might be nice to let my hair down (literally).

 NEED

with Charlie in the pre-toddler years the lovely diaper bag is getting a bit old.
i'd like something that is a bit easier to tote around. 

 WEAR

c'mon it has a frenchie on it!! 

 READ

everything i've been reading these days is mostly educational or child related.
mama needs a good laugh (and i've been dying to read this). 

The past two years around the holidays I've seen people doing the whole "want, need, wear, read" when it came to presents. I decided to switch it up a bit because of someone's upcoming birthday next week. I'm trying my best to handle my last birthday in my 20's with a brave face.
