Spreading the love is FASHION TALES’ middle name, especially when it comes to stumbling across cutting-edge items!
There’s plenty of unconventional and affordable options that are both stylish and simple. So, here’s a curated list of my top 5 favourite gift worthy Valentine’s Day alternative selections: for you, your sweetheart, or darling “friend.” We have a marvellous box of goodies, including an excellent giveaway waiting for you, so take your time and enjoy these useful, and charming items below.
(Above) 1-Quality leather gloves Ted Baker and Dents, 2-Etsy handmade soaps made in the likeness of chocolate nut brownies, and other sweets in oatmeal glycerin and heart shaped dead sea salt soap, 3–Unique small jewellery: thinking beyond diamonds? Give the Monserat De Lucca “Ducks-in-a-row” bracelet and Tuleste Market-Tulip earrings. 4–True Fabrications: vintage inspired hi-tech bottle stopper in the form of a gear shift, it’s very 007! 5–Tic® by Tic Sweden.
It’s such a delight to partner and collaborate with Tic Sweden (Tic Sverige AB), the Gothenburg-based company behind the brilliant no-sew button fastener. The brand created the patented product tic®, which allows anyone … that’s right, anyone, to permanently fasten a button on their shirt. Male or female, whether you need a two-hole button or four-hole button sewn, don’t fret fashionistas! You needn’t worry about having sewing skills at all to use this item!
Tic® Talk: Sans Needle & Thread
Have you ever had a button fall off your shirt or blouse at the most inconvenient moment? Tic® instantly solves that problem! It’s a fine quick-fix solution, and an even better backup plan to keep handy in your briefcase, handbag, or in your travelling case.
Why we love Tic®
Aside from the obvious clever design, tic® is at the vanguard of no-sew innovation. Tic® is also made entirely from high-quality recyclable plastic.

Yes, actually they are permanant, to take the place of sewing a button, it's all in the tic piece, thread and all! Thanks for your comment. 🙂
Thanks! 🙂
Sounds like a cool solution temporarily until you get a new button sorted. I also love the bottle stopper that looks like a gear stick, very funky, lol.
Everything so cool!!!

Love that button invention, that is genius, I don't know how many times I've lost a button while out and ended up loosing it from my bag after, this would have saved me. So cool 🙂 Fabulous gifts for Valentine's as well :)) I hope you have a great day doll xx
These are all such fun gift picks for Valentine's Day, but especially the Ted Baker gloves – the black version was on my Christmas wishlist!
xox,
Cee
What a great invention! My brother is always turning up with trousers and shirts he needs buttons replacing. If I win he'll be getting this and I get to have a lie-in on a Sunday morning! x
