Valentine’s Day gifts seen on 3rd hour of TODAY

Sugar Krisp Valentine’s Day Bento Box

“These homemade rice krispies treats topped with candy are a perfect sweet treat for your Valentine,” suggests Williams. Here’s why: You can pick out the stickers and candy that fit their interests, which range from chewy bites to sour gummies, so it is a box unique to them. The set comes in a five-piece and 10-piece box ($25). 

Rocketbook Reusable Core Notebook

According to the brand, these notebooks are indefinitely reusable. While that might seem impossible, their notebooks are entirely digital. So as you jot down a note or scribble a doodle, the notebook transfers it all to your favorite cloud service. “When done, just wipe away,” explains Williams. “The ‘paper’ is a reusable screen but feels and writes like paper.”

Mark and Graham FillMore Travel Pouch

For the traveler in your life, this Mark and Graham pouch makes the perfect gift. The flexible exterior allows them to stuff the bag in tight spaces inside their luggage, while the large open compartment offers tons of room to store necessities. But the highlights of this bag are the material itself — a vegan leather that claims to be water- and sun-resistant — and there's an opportunity to customize. “For an extra $13, you can personalize it by adding initials, and this comes in seven colors,” Williams says.

Cre8ive Crayonz Valentine’s Day Set

These crayons take arts and crafts to the next level, suggests Williams. They’re great for your little art lover, who might revel over the unique crayon designs offered by the brand. It’s mom-founded, and has multiple designs ranging from holiday-themed gifts, such as this Valentine’s Day set (there's also 'I Love You' and 'XOXO' crayons), custom name crayons and more.

Voesh Pedi in a Box

Nothing shouts "self care" more than a pedicure treatment. Bring the nail salon to your next Galentine’s Day with this Voesh Pedi in a Box set, which comes with a foot scrub, mask, butter and a soak in a variety of scents that'll treat them or yourself. 

Hamilton Beach Mini Breakfast Sandwich Maker

If you’re staying in and setting up a Galentine’s Day brunch, this sandwich maker is going to be a lifesaver,” suggests Williams. In just four simple steps, they’ll be able to whip up a sandwich on-the-go, regardless of the breading and toppings they choose. Just build your base, add in your desired layers, close the lid and allow it to cook for five minutes. Afterwards, the brand says the clean-up should be swift.
