Guest Picks: Valentine's Day Gifts for Men
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.
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.
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!"
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
Commemorate the latitude and longitude of your first date, first kiss, place of proposal, wedding, honeymoon, conception of baby, etc. on this customizable bracelet.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
