i yam crazy about you!


We think that a personalized gift trumps anything else on Valentine's day. Pyrrha is the best alternative to a fuzzy stuffed animal, and each seal has it's own meaning, making it easy to find something special for your loved one. 



1. winged heart | This handmade wax seal necklace reads Tout Pour Vous in French which means All For You. A winged heart is symbolic of a love that is protected and can endure any hardship. 

2. eternal love | This handmade wax seal necklace reads Jaimais Arriere in French, meaning Never Behind. The heart with wings is symbolic of a love that is eternal. 

3. devotion | In French this handmade wax seal reads La Fidelle meaning Faithful, showing a dove sitting on a tree branch waiting for its mate to return. The dove is a symbol of affection that represents fidelity in marriage.

“I love you also means I love you more than anyone loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that no one loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that I love no one else, and never have loved anyone else, and never will love anyone else.” 

― Jonathan Safran Foer

There are a million ways to tell someone you love them,

but that doesn't mean that it's always that simple.

So, for those significant others who have trouble with words,

we just may be able to help you out!

Leave hints around the house such as an old Twisted Sisters bag, business card, or a blog tag that will direct them to this post to find out what you really want for Valentines day.

We have to give them credit for their best efforts, but this year, you may find yourself with something a little more sentimental from your sweetie.
