Tis the season of love! Valentine's Day is a little under a month away, and now is the time to get that perfect present for your loved one. Here is Gaj-It's guide to gifts for men, women, anyone and (right at the bottom) even those of you planning an anti-Valentine's Day. We like to keep everyone happy.
For Her"¦
Personalised 'Romeo and Juliet'
'Romeo and Juliet' is probably the most romantic story in the world, if you're into suicide, family feuds and underage marriage. Well it was very different back in Shakespeare's day. Make your own relationship into this fairy tale plot by giving your girl a personalised copy. The hero and heroine get your names, and you can even add the names of a few more friends and family for added authenticity. She'll be swooning over you from the balcony for sure.

Makeover Experience
Is your lady a wannabe Kate Moss? Or would she just enjoy the experience for the day? Whether she wants to start a portfolio or just get some good memories to hang on the wall this gift is the perfect treat. Locations are available around the country, hair and make-up are done on the day by a professional stylist, and all she has to do is pose for a professional snapper. Highly recommended if you think your lady is beautiful (and you must do, don't you?).

Pink Tool Box
Buck the stereotype and appeal to the feminist within your girlfriend. The Pink Tool Box contains everything she'll need for a bit of her own DIY. 'Flashdance' made girls who do DIY sexy, and no matter what she's screwing in the bathroom or nailing in the bedroom she'll be thinking of you. Just be sure to have at least a single red rose to accompany it if your girl can handle herself but also appreciates the romance too!

For Him"¦
'I'm Nuts About You' Keyring
Ooh, do you see the pun here? An antidote to cheesy 'key to my heart' style keyrings, this one is sweet and sugary but manly as chest hair and testosterone. Well, it's DIY themed anyway. One could argue that you could make your own for much cheaper, but this one is crafted from bronze, silver and gold plating. Nuts and bolts keep things together, a nice metaphor to be reminded of as it hangs from his keys, without him getting the stick from his mates that a fluffy heart would attract.

Personalised Chocolate Bar
Who says that chocolate is just a gift for the girls? Get a bit cheeky with a personalised Purple Ronnie chocolate bar. Add your name and your blokes name and a personal message of up to 30 characters on the back. It's funny, it's cute and you can 'accidentally' eat it when he isn't looking. Great one for new couples - it won't break the bank or the heart. Available with either a male or female image to cater for all tastes, especially chocoholics.

Naughty Knot
Wanting something a bit kinkier than everything else featured so far? Turn yourself into the Valentine's Day present with a Naughty Knot. They've been popular for a few years and if you have a body that drives your other half wild (and I can see that you do) then play up to it! Slip into the silk sash and lay in wait. Other halves uninterested in the significance of February 14th will surely get on board quicker than you can say 'I Love You'"¦

For Everyone!
Pop the Question Ring
Planning on asking the love of your life to marry you this Valentine's Day? With 52% of people doing the same, some of you are bound to get your partners ring size incorrect, or just chose a ring which is completely wrong. Take the stress out of choosing with a Pop the Question Ring, available in two designs. You get a small diamond for the price, sizes are extra small, small, medium or large, and if it doesn't fit then it can be put on a chain while you choose the real engagement ring together. Also you won't have blown 3 months wages if they say no!

Tango Dancing Experience For Two.
With the rise in popularity of ballroom dancing thanks to shows like 'Strictly Come Dancing', chances are your other half would be interested in a spin around the dance floor. Get your lycra and feather boas out of the closet and learn the most passionate dance, the Tango. It might stir a lifelong passion for dance in a shy partner, or if not it'll be good for a giggle before you go back to watching the stars make fools of themselves on the TV.

‘Valentine’ Personalised Photoframe
I'm sure that on Facebook there are nine photos of you and your other half that you like, together or solo. Print them off and stick them in this stylish personalisable Valentine photo frame and you've got a gift that shows your (slightly) creative side as well as your thoughtful side. If you're feeling really artistic (or you're just not photogenic) you could also draw pictures to go in it, or create a collage of cute / sexy / loved up images from magazines.

And For Anyone Flying Solo"¦
Mini Love Voodoo
Single? Sick of it? Or just sick of your coupled up friends hi-jacking what should be a holiday for the unattached? Grab a love voodoo kit and take control of your love life. Stick those pins where the sun doesn't shine and tempt or taunt your intended into a frenzy. More fun than getting drunk and singling 'I Will Survive' at the top of your lungs, although you can do that as well if you want.
[product#607]
Heaven Scent Tear Absorbing Tissues
Not ready to stab pins into a love effigy yet? Get a soppy film on DVD and enjoy a good old cry and evening of feeling sorry for yourself and mopping up your tears with these Valentine's themed - and beautifully smelling – tissues. (No gender stereotypes here - lads can blub along too!). Alternatively, get the funniest film in your collection and use them to wipe away your tears of joy. Whoever said you needed to be in a couple to enjoy Valentine's Day eh?
