The Butler by Micklish - $170.00 [ Link ]
Keys, phones and glasses always end up scattered on the kitchen counter. This cute storage system seems like the perfect gift to help keep the man in your life tidy.

Hobbit Viking Beard and Hat by Holy Noggins - $60.00 [ Link ]
This made me laugh out loud. I have seen a lot of "beard hats" on Etsy, but this one is perfect for the Lord of the Rings nerd in your household. My husband would love to live vicariously as a dwarf in one of these hats.

CRKT Guppie 9-in-1 Multi Tool - $20.99 [ Link ]
I sent my husband to the home improvement store to pick up some building supplies, and he came home with this on his key chain. Needless to say, this multitool gadget makes a fantastic Valentine's Day gift. It has a multibit screwdriver, a mini-wrench, a blade and an LED flashlight. I think I might need one for myself.

Alexandra Ferguson 'Let's Make Out' Decorative Pillow, - $114.00 [ Link ]
I have a lot of typographic pillows in my house, and most of them say things like "nest" or "sea." When I showed this pillow to my husband, his response was, "Finally, a typographic pillow with a message I can get behind!"

Man Candle, Kentucky Bourbon by Chicago Candle Co. [ Link ]
For the man that loves the smell of alcohol, these candles would make the perfect gift. Get the sensory experience of bourbon without the calories (or the buzz).

Chocolate-Enrobed Bacon [ Link ]
Chocolate and bacon is a weird combination, but it sounds perfect for my man this Valentine's Day. I think this treat could easily be DIYed for the occasion. Shaping your bacon into hearts before baking would make it extra cute.

The Man Can - $48.99 [ Link ]
I don't think many men will readily admit it, but I believe they like to be pampered with fun spa products made for them. This "Man Can" filled with pampering pleasantries looks like a fun Valentine's Day gift to give.

101 Things Every Man Should Know How to Do - $9.55 [ Link ]
With chapter titles like "Fight a Bear," "Be a Superhero" and "Grow a Successful Beard," 101 Things Every Man Should Know How to Do looks hilarious. I think my valentine would love receiving this book.

Star Trek Enterprise Pizza Cutter - $29.99 [ Link ]
I love this Valentine's Day gift idea for the Trekkie in your life. My nerdy father would have loved this Star Trek Enterprise pizza cutter. Pizza night just got a whole lot more fun.

Hand-Stamped Guitar Pick and Case by All My Heart Shop - $25.00 [ Link ]
For the musical lover in your life, an engraved guitar pick with a carrying case would make such a thoughtful gift. I like the idea of telling your man that you think he rocks.

The U.S. and International Variety Beer Club - $29.95 [ Link ]
If you and your sweetie are fans of beer, a beer of the month club might be the perfect gift for both of you this Valentine's Day. I would score some major "wife points" in the eyes of my husband if I bought this for him this year.
by The Microbrewed Beer of the Month Club
Shakespearean Insult Mug - $12.95 [ Link ]
I think my professor husband would love to drink his morning brew while pondering Shakespearean insults. This cup would make a great conversation piece in the teacher's lounge and a fun gift to give.
by The Unemployed Philosophers Guild
Dark Chocolate Brown Leather Journal or Sketchbook by Daniel Heywood on Etsy - $87.00 [ Link ]
A leather-bound journal/sketchbook is timeless and beautiful. My man loves to jot down notes, and it's difficult to find non-girly journals for him. This one looks perfect.
by Etsy
Ring Thing Bottle Opener, Stainless Steel, Size 12 - $9.95 [ Link ]
At first glance, this looks like just an interesting silver ring; however, this ring also serves a fun purpose. Give this to your man for Valentine's Day, and he'll never be without a bottle opener. It's such a fun and unique gift.
by Amazon
Toggle Switch Plate - $40.00 [ Link ]
Who knew that something as simple as turning a light on and off could be made into an awesome conversation piece. I love these toggle switch plates and think they would make a fantastic gift for your man's office or den.

I think this would make a romantic Valentine's Day gift. Scratch off all of the places in the world you visit together on this unique map.

Bike Chain Frame - $36.00 [ Link ]
Giving the gift of a cherished photo for Valentine's Day is always appreciated, but I think my man would love it even more if it came in an über-cool frame. This one is ecofriendly with an industrial charm that I think he would appreciate.
by UncommonGoods
Upcycled Mail Sack iPad Case - $55.00 [ Link ]
Many iPad cases are either too feminine or too boring for my guy. This upcycled mail sack has the perfect "grunge factor" for my eco-loving man.

brysonleague The Guppy is great, we use ours all the time. I've considered buying the Star Trek pizza cutter, but it has no thumb guard and I'm all thumbs (and intend to stay that way). This year I bought my husband a Red Rooster Trading Co. manual coffee grinder. He loves it!
