Return to Sender With Recycled Cards
Research from Hallmark shows that Valentine's Day is the second most popular holiday for greeting cards, with as many as 180 million cards sent each year, and that's not counting children's valentines. Skip the heart shaped boxes and pink foil and send a love note on these cards from Urban Bird Designs, made in Portland with images from books found at estate sales (vendors include Eagle Harbor Book Company and West Seattle Nursery,  find more online). Created using wind energy and printed on 100% recycled paper, these cards employ cute puns such as "deer to me" (pictured, right) and are blank inside--perfect for a gift certificate from our merchants.

Give a Unique Gift (While Using Unique Coupons, of Course!)
We recommend a certificate for yoga classes (10-25% off classes and packages depending on merchant), organic bath salts and oils from Dandelion Botanical, or a 2 for 1 Argentine Tango class at Sonny Newman's Dance Hall. Private Screening is a glamorous vintage clothing store where you can find swanky duds for your evening out.

Staying in? What's more thoughtful than having the house spiffed up by Natural Habitat Housecleaning? Follow up with a romantic dinner delivered by Dancing Women Meal Delivery and treats from EvZe World Gourmet, a great specialty food shop that makes a point of only selling things you can't find elsewhere in Seattle.
