Be my Valentine...

2012-02-08T08:52:00.004+08:00

Some approach February the 14th with trepidation, others with gusto. Whatever your style, you'll find the perfect Valentine's gift at either of our stores: 140 or 452 William St.

Whether you 'whaley like' someone or simply 'heart' them, we have your card needs covered. Find these and plenty more cards in store:

If you'd like to remind your loved one of how you feel each morning at the breakfast table, you might like to consider Rob Ryan's His 'n' Her mugs:

Offer a subtly love-ly gift to your man with these cufflinks, recycled from typewriter keys:

Those fellows at Enormous Champion have lived up to their name with these delightfully sentimental ornaments. You can choose from either Squirrelly Love or Love Birds:

What's that now, you don't have pet names for each other? Perhaps you should consider 'Owl' and 'Cat'. Just a suggestion.

We at William Topp wish you all a very happy Valentine's Day.
