Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For the Men in Your Life
While most Valentine’s gifts tend towards the pink and frilly, there’s no reason you can’t show the men in your life some love with something a little more demure. How about a lovely fern for your #plantdad best friend? Or a cooking lesson for your still-sourdough-obsessed husband? Anyone would appreciate a set of Barbara Sturm minis, a pocket-sized Theragun, or a fabulous coffee table book. We even have an idea for his four-legged friend. Check out all of our editor-recommended gifts, here.
