I love when I go to the mail box and find a Red Envelope Catalog inside. I dump all my other mail on the counter and stand in my coat flipping through the pages like a kid looking at ads during Christmas. Red Envelope has such a vast array of products to choose from. You can get a beautiful night gown as well as a potted plant. What could be better? Red Envelope definitely puts a big red check mark on the idea of one stop shopping.
What I didn’t know until recently was that Red Envelope has a web site where I can go and get lost for an hour combing through all the amazing choices. You can also place orders to send your loved ones flowers and candy (Hello, Valentine’s Day is coming). I am always shopping on line, I don’t have time for the mall after a long day at work and online purchases are the perfect way for me to get the job done. Plus, you can’t beat the option for gift wrap and a personalized message, all wrapped up nicely and shipped for you. I immediately gave the Red Envelope Web Site www.redenvelope.com a try.
It’s Valentine’s Day, so of course Red Envelope site when opened was all about helping you find the perfect gift choices for the ones you want to gift this year. Gifts for her, gifts for him, even gifts for your kids all right there at the click of your mouse. However, the Red Envelope did not stop there. They have tabs for gifts for everyone in your life, from your sister’s birthday to your boss’s retirement party, with Red Envelope you simply can’t go wrong.
I love to cook and entertaining guest, forget about it, I’m the go to girl for every neighborhood party. I have been looking for an in home window box herb garden for ages,
but simply could not find one that looked nice and was affordable ($34.95). Red Envelope had exactly what I wanted and it didn’t break the bank. I also needed a business card holder, which I got through Red Envelope web site in red leather for a mere $22.95. Then I saw it, the ultimate party must have, The Instant Wine Chiller by Ravi. This gadget was showcased on the hit television show “The View” and the reviews for it on the Red Envelope web site are excellent. You keep the Instant Wine Chiller in your freezer and then when you go to serve your guests wine it chills it to the perfect temperature depending on the kind of wine you’re serving. How cool is that? No more plopping ice cubes in your wine glass and diluting the taste. I love this product, thank you Red Envelope!

I would love the HEarts Embrace necklace but would also love to take my daughter the chocolate dipped strawberries. I have purchase jewelry from them in the past and it is great
I would welcome the Deluxe Two Days of Valentine’s gift (flowers and chocolate covered strawberries). Being thought of one day is nice, but 2 days…now that’s a home run!
http://gifts.redenvelope.com/flowers/Deluxe-Two-Days-of-Valentines-40773?viewpos=8&trackingpgroup=rvjew&tile=hmpg_tile_a
If I received two days of V Day gifts in a row, I would die from shock. Seriously, the delivery man would show up on day two and find me passed out in the doorway clutching the flowers and chocolate from the previous day. On a side note my favorite flowers are daisies
@Suz I love daisies too, they take me back to my childhood. I also love tulips and Red Envelope has a beautiful selection! I hope my husband is paying attention.
I think ALL of our husbands should be paying attention. Those purple tulips are to die for!
As much as I love flowers, I’d rather get the pink ribbon cookie bouquet!
Yes, they do. I could also go for some scented candles and Red Envelope has a year of candles gift set. I could feel all spa-like for a YEAR with those babies!!!!
Or it could be a “spicy” valentine with the sexy stackers game! Woo hoo!
ooh..on further look…I really like the cubist entertaining sets….oh wait…how about the “get lucky dice” <—LOL
Oh the year of candles looks wonderful! I am obsessed with scented candles and would love to have those!
I am a lover of roses but there is something for everyone at red envelope
@Rebekah maybe the “sexy stackers” and the “get lucky dice” would go hand in hand. lol OH, throw a set of “dirty darts” in there and NOW we have a party.
A year of candles would be great!! The year of love candles is the gift that keeps giving….there are little charms inside each candle! Perfect for a bracelet that I would keep on the sculpted jewelry tree!
Check out those spicy valentine gifts! Love the lucky dice, too! With a $100 gift certificate, a nice variety of gifts could be purchased!
The year of candles does look good, you are right about that.
The dice should say RUB FEET, lol!
This is a cute foreplay came!
I like the “what fills her heart” diamond necklace. SO pretty! <3
@Stef That jewelry tree caught my eye as well. It looks like a piece of art!
I think for Valentine’s day we could all use some of the spicy gifts. Throw in some eberjey colette lingerie and you could have a great night!
Oh the What fills her heart diamond necklace is amazing! I would love for my husband to get that for me, but now isn’t a good time. My kids are too young and I would be crushed if my baby tried to grab it off my neck and broke it or my daughter got into my jewelry box and lost it.
I agree with Rebekah, the year of candles is awesome! I love candles oh so much!
The framed 4 leaf clover sits on my husband’s desk – because I’m lucky to be married to him. Feel free to steal this idea for your husband/boyfriend – men are so hard to shop for!!
@Tracey – I totally agree that the rub feet comment should be on the dice. Amen!
Lucky to be married to him! I love that Amy! I’ll have to get that for my husband cause he is lucky to be married to me! LOL
@Tracey – YES! It should also say: do dishes, scratch back, take care of kids, fix dinner. That’s MY idea of “lucky” dice.
@Toni – that is awesome. I’d also like personalized dice that would always say “daddy’s turn to change diapers”. Now that would be a total score! Hope Red Envelope jumps right on our ideas.
I think the framed four leaf clover would be great on any man ( or womans) desk. I think I will order one for our home office desk..who couldnt use a little luck? The one thing that would look great with it would be year of candles…lucky charms? Wow…and the look is dual or I think so anyway.
For some reason candles freak me out so thr year of candles would be the worst for me. Actually what I love is gift cards so the Red Envelope gc would be the best gift in and of itself. The option to but what ever u want is the best. I would get a Bath & Body spa set. Long baths are definitely my thing.
I keep looking at their “mother” jewelry like the mother’s birthstone ring.
@Marianna – I wish I’d planned ahead and had my August baby in July – I don’t like Peridot!
Seqouya, I’m not a scented candles fan so I wouldn’t be thrilled about a year of candles either! But a Bath & Body Spa set would be like a spa appointment at home – if hubby kept the kids quiet or took them out that is!
Flowers die and chocolates get devoured.. I’m going for something that will be around for awhile. I’d love the murano heart bracelet. It’s delicate little pink and red hearts would be a constant reminder of a lovely Valentines Day gift.
A gift card is an excellent choice Sequoya! I’m not much into bath & body stuff…..don’t really have time for baths these days (quick showers? yes!) LOL
I have always wanted a Mother’s Ring. Now that our second and last baby is almost here, I should look at them more.
Sequoya, I agree, a gift card is the best gift ever! Red Envelope has such a variety of items, everyone can find something they love. The hardest part is deciding what to purchase.
The Mother’s Ring would be a great idea for my daughter. She has a 3 year old and just had a baby the end of December. What a nice thought for a Valentine’s Day gift.
@Darlene – Murano glass is gorgeous! I went to Italy and saw Murano glass up close, amazing stuff!!
@Rachel – A mother’s ring is a great idea. I just had our third and last baby. I want to get a mother’s ring too, but I like necklaces more and want a mother’s necklace
How about matching five star terry robes? http://gifts.redenvelope.com/bath/five-star-terry-robe-30000863?viewpos=5&trackingpgroup=RHMPG
Hubby really needs a new robe – the one he has is so shabby. This five star terry robe has great reviews – looks super soft and comfy.
Wonderful giveaway.
I love the hearts embrace necklace @ red envelope!
lovely!
mommy2skie@yahoo.com
Christine – good idea, matching robes! My DH doesn’t have a robe, totally gift idea for him
I’ve had my eye on the deluxe wall gallery frame for months now…http://gifts.redenvelope.com/gifts/deluxe-wall-gallery-frame-30007695?trackingpgroup=RecentlyViewedPage&BaseProductID=0_
@Christine – I love that gallery of photos!
Matching robes, now that’s a cool idea! They look very soft and luxurious.
@Christine – I wish I had the wallspace for that! It is amazing!
@Annie – I’m eyeballing going up the steps for that piece…
I love the Hand Dipped Valentine’s Berries…yum!
LOL they sell superhero cuff links! My DH doesn’t wear cuff links….but those are awesome
@Mami2jcn – hand dipped valentine’s berries – good tasty in the tummy choice!
love there flower collection @ red envelope.
mommy2skie@yahoo.com
Love the reasons i love you pj’s: http://gifts.redenvelope.com/flowers/reasons-i-love-you-pajamas-30045077?viewpos=29&trackingpgroup=rffap
@ Christine… those are so sweet!
mommy2skie@yahoo.com
oooohhh, aaaaahhhhh… I just noticed the Infinity Diamond Earrings. Those would love lovely dripping from my ears.
if the earrings dripped from her ears they might freeze this time of year- loving the froggie stepping stones
@Darlene Arnold I am with you on getting jewelry over flowers and chocolate (of course all of the above would be nice). I really like the sisters heart bracelet + necklace. Its simple and pretty.
I agree, I love jewelery over flowers (that eventually die) and chocolate(that get eaten). I really like the diamond and pearl earrings at Red Envelope.
Simple and pretty is my favorite kind of jewelry. Nothing too flashy.
I have to go along with Mami2jcn & Christine that chose the hand-dipped strawberries as a favorite. I eye those every time I visit the Red Envelope website & will eventually have to get some.
I think you get more use out of jewelry when it is not too flashy.
Currently on my “I want it” list:
http://gifts.redenvelope.com/gifts/rose-heart-necklace-30004618?viewpos=68&trackingpgroup=rjewl
I love the Frog Prince Necklace and the Sculpted Jewelry Tree, they would go so well together!
nancymeyer1 at gmail dot com
I love all styles of jewelry
Considering gifts for the guys?
I think this one is hilarious http://gifts.redenvelope.com/gifts/beer-holster-30002961?viewpos=8&trackingpgroup=rhbar
Isn’t it great how they have gifts for everyone on your list!
One stop shopping is great.
OMG, that beer holster is hysterical! What man wouldn’t love that! LOL! Way to go Red Envelope!
Don’t you think they have great Valentine’s Day gift ideas? I love the five-star terry robe as a gift idea.
http://gifts.redenvelope.com/bath/five-star-terry-robe-30000863?viewpos=5&trackingpgroup=RHMPG&REF=REDSRCHmsftkwd_red+envelope_e_BRND&PRID=srchribbonfive
I like all the different gifts for different occasions
The robes are a great gift for anyone.
I love the nickname coffee mugs.
http://gifts.redenvelope.com/gifts/nickname-coffee-cups-30010349?viewpos=1&trackingpgroup=productsearch&REF=REDSRCHmsftkwd_red+envelope_e_BRND&PRID=srchribbonfive
Nickname coffee mugs – cute Vicky! I like those too!
Yeah, the beer holster is funny. Have you seen the Family Photo Frames? They are too cute!
The Family Photo Frames are one I’d love to give to my mother-in-law. It’s so tough trying to find just the right gift for her.
The Nickname Coffee mugs are cute.
I also would love to get or give the 24 Hand-Dipped Valentine’s Berries. These look so delicious!
I love their selection of photo frames Grandma. And I really need more. My walls are sadly lacking in pictures.
Yes, no time to get those pictures up for us too! But seeing all these beautiful picture frames and jewelry inspires me to try and get them up and out.
Ah, thoseHand Dipped Valentine Berries would have me buzzing. I kind of like the Baby Elephant Ring Holder
I really like getting photo frames as gifts. It’s always nice to receive a new photo of a loved one and already have it framed. What a great gift idea.
This steady stick wine picnic set is really neat. I would definitely take that to my favorite winery and enjoy a picnic on the grounds with the one I love!
http://gifts.redenvelope.com/flowers/steady-stick-table–wine-holders-30000152?viewpos=46&trackingpgroup=rfffv
I love that some of the frames can be personalized. Such a nice way to commemorate a special day or celebrate a special occasion.
The frog prince is cute. I like the Love Letter Necklace–it is very unique don’t you think?
deluxe two days of valentine’s would be perfect for this cancer fightin’ mama who finally got her taste buds back after treatment
tvollowitz at aol dot com
Speaking of Love Letters…did you see the Legendary Love Letters? It has Love Letters and poems wrote by famous people and templates to write your own. Very nice!
Stephanie I totally agree you deserve two days of pampering. Since you finally have your taste back (which is great) perhaps you should try some of the delicious chocolates on Proflowers. (Red envelope’s sister site)
Templates to write your own love letters? Gonna buy that book for my husband!! LOL!! Love it!
I’d love some chocolates. I didn’t know Proflowers was a sister site of Red Envelope, awesome!
I have always wanted to write my own book. I never made it past page 3. Maybe I need some templates lol.
Speaking of personalization I would love to get the secret message collar stays for my boyfriend, so he can know how much I care about him, even while he is at work.
My husband could use some templates for writing love letters too…
Although what he really wants is the Sexy Stackers game. I mentioned it to him last week and he’s asked me three times if I bought it!
I’d get the couples picnic pack
I love that most of the items can be engraved or monogrammed
The picnic set would be great for our family, and romantic!
I went engrave crazy for this V-day. I decided to put together my own gift basket for my sweety. (I actually did buy that secret message collar stays). Everything in there is just personalized in some way.
Do you think that is overkill?
Right. Giffts that are personalized or engraved always show that you really put thought into it.
The family & friends photo pillows would make a great gift for teens.
The herb garden looks cool too…I would love to make my own.
I like some of their baby items, like the twilight turtle
I have bought the herb garden as a gift twice for two different people. It’s a wonder I never picked one up for myself. I would save so much. Buying fresh herbs in the super market adds up.
I like that the herb garden pots are more stylish that other mini herb gardens on the market. Talk about classy!
I like the idea of the meditation candle garden. A nice reminder to take time to relax.
The growth charts look great…I need one for little man.
The meditation candle garden. is very nice it would make a great decorative piece as well. So would the cherry blossoms candle.
The silver + marble cheese serving set would be great for entertaining
I’d love to get the eberjey lovestruck set.
the eberjey lovestruck is very sexy. Great pick. I own a pair of eberjey pj’s. They are so soft and comfortable.
My husband could use a valet
The cream lace on the Eberjey Lovestruck Set makes the outfit extra special-I like that the designer is a woman-looks comfortable.
I would love the 3 keys gift set for a man
The sculpted jewelry tree is so pretty and it would be so great to have a place to organize necklaces so they don’t get tangled up!
If the pj’s with the cashmere robe, I may never leave my home. They look so comfy.
The swan ring holders are very nice- I would always find my jewelry!
The herb garden looks great. I have recently started growing herbs, but my planters aren’t as cute as these.
The swans are wonderful. How creative. Here is an idea you can put the swan ring holders next to the jewelry tree and make a little scene.
The rose friendship box is perfect for all my special keepsakes.
That box is nice…but going with the theme of personalization that I am doing this V-day I would probably go with the heart friendship box
Swan ring holders near the jewlery tree? LOVE that idea!
Going back to comment #1–i also would love to give the chocolate dipped strawberries to someone–MY HUBBY– they look soooooo yummy!! Winning that would be a great way to start Valentine’s day off
How about some inside-out champagne glasses as well. You know chocolate stawberries must go with a good glass of champagne.
Two aphrodisiacs at once. 0-:-)
@Michelle L I LOVE the way you think! The perfect pairing…chocolate covered strawberries and champagne!
I don’t know what the opposite of having ‘a green thumb’ is, but that would be me. I wonder how easy it is to maintain the herb garden or the aromatherapy kit?
LOL Thanks Jessica. Now we just have to add that eberjay chemise Erica wants and we have ourselves one heck of a V-day night.
Vicky I know what you mean. The only thing I’ve ever been able to grow for any length of time is a cactus, and I eventually killed it off too!
I would imagine all the gardens needs is some sun light, water, maybe a little plant food, and some love. Herb plants are usually pretty simple.
I’m getting hungry….a cupcake sampler from Red Envelope sounds delish!
I need the Herb Garden- I am trying to eat healthy, and the fresh herbs would make my dishes better!
In regards to the Cupcake Sampler–there are enough cupcakes there to make some new friends.
The Cupcakes look so good-nice Valentine’s Day dessert
Kay not to mention great garnish to any meal. Sprinkle a little fresh oregano on pasta. Yum. Maybe we should all just sign up for the year of seeds lol.
My hubby would love a year of seeds!
A year of seeds is a great gift! My husband would love it.
I love the Love Wrap. My husband and I like to come home after a long day at work and snuggle ont he couch and watch our favorite shows. It would be perfect.
Yvonne- Yes, Like the Love Wrap also-But Would get two-we could still snuggle and be extra comfy and warm!
I agree the wrap looks super cozy.
I didn’t even notice the wrap ~ it does look super cozy. The aromatherapy wrap & booties look like something good to slip on after a hard day of work too.
I like the cashmere robe.
Cashmere sounds nice for these cold days. What a nice splurge!
oh yum, I am going to ask DH to get me some Chocolate covered oreos from Red Envelope! Mine, all mine
That Cashmere robe sounds so comfy…like a warm hug.
LOL margaret – like a warm hug! I love it! I will get DH the robe and write that in the card, “here is your hug, where is my chocolate?” hehehe
id like to get the red mini orchid, it looks pretty
Hmmm….I think I will enjoy the chocolate covered oreo’s while relaxing in my warm cashmere robe.
I’m with you nanjhall!
Plus for me, anything chocolate covered is a plus!
Did someone say chocolate covered oreos? Hello! It is obvious I’m trying to be healthy because anytime the word chocolate is mentioned or I read it, I start drooling! LOL!
LOL Jessica, I know!! And each oreo is individually wrapped. At least that will slow me down as I eat them hehehe
I seriously cannot stop thinking about them. I mean, oreos are scrumptious but covered in chocolate too? WOW!
What a fun name, the “love wrap”. It would be a wonderful thing to have! Though I’m still voting for the Deluxe Two Days of Valentine’s! Flowers AND chocolate covered strawberries….yum!
So as long as we are on chocolate, I could put away those delicious looking Giant Dipped Fancy Berries.
I love oreos so I’m not sure that would slow me down too much. So to be safe I would like the sterling silver family necklace for Valentine’s day.
I would definitely have to opt for something that is not edible so thankfully there are a ton of awesome items that have caught my eye. As mentioned previously, love the wine picnic table and set. Very fun!
They have a lot of great inedible things, but those Conversation Heart Cookies look amazing!
I’d like to munch on those delectable conversation heart cookies while packing toiletries in the leather excursion travel case.
ky2here at msn dot com
While you are munching on those delectable conversation heart cookies, I think I will try the Mrs. Fields Nibblers…..I am sure they are fat free:)
Those Mrs. Fields nibblers sound fantastic however they are going to get me in trouble because dinnertime is looming.
ky2here at msn dot com
Those Conversation Heart Cookies look yummy, but I have way too many travel cases. I’d rather have the Mrs. Field’s Bites Basket and share it with my family of five.

All of the hand-dipped berries look so good.
I agree Vicky, I would enjoy any of them. Then again, if is sweet I will like it.
The hand-dipped berries will require several squat-thrusts and runs around the block. I’m in. What a great suggestion.
Me too. I need to looking at the sweets. Now back to frames and candles…
The cherry blossoms candle are officially on my “I want” list.
ky2here I think you missed the small print saying that they were calorie free…..no extra exercise required.
LOL Thankfully they have a huge selection of pretty candles. But candles go with food LOL
I too like the cherry blossoms candle. but i LOVE the Year of candles! There is a little charm in each one that you can put on a bracelet or keychain. Neat!
Oh fun! I didn’t see the charms~ my sister has a charm bracelet, she’d love that!
That’s cute, Vicky. Would go with a lot…
I think it’s cool to have a few ‘wow’ pieces, especially if they go with more than one outfit. This one works with lots of my stuff: jewel tone murano glass beads necklace
I big fat fluffy heart murano glass beads! They are delicate and gorgeous!
I would send the 12 fancy dipped Valentine’s berries to my new husband and I would get the I love you 3 stackable rings for my dear husband to give to me.
kakihararocks@gmail.com
LOL Darcy! you’d get the rings to give him to give you – love that
Sometimes husbands don’t get hints so just give him the right gift for you!
Darcy, that’s nice. The gift of relieving the pressure to chose the right gift.
I think my boyfriend has a bigger sweet tooth than I do. I might just get him a chocolate cake.
vicky, get him the chocolate covered oreos! yum!!
good one, darcy. i always pick out the best gifts from my husband. the stackable rings are cute!
O0h. Thanks Annie! I didn’t see those. I like that they are individually wrapped so nobody gets carried away too quickly.
- I looked at the stackable rings-the ones with the birthstones are cool.
CHocolate covered oreos never noticed those, they wouldn’t last long here
How about the Romantic Chocolate covered Fortune Cookies- at least when they are gone, you can always read the fortune.
Anything Chocolate goes very fast over here.
I love the love letter necklace.
The Love Letter Necklace is really pretty, Sand. My personal favorite is the Trinity Rings Necklace.
I would love to have the deluxe wall gallery frame to showcase pictures in my hallway.
nanjhall, The Deluxe Wall Gallery Frame is great. I have it hanging in my livingroom. It’s so easy to change the pictures and I’ve gotten many compliments on it.
I would love to get one of these. What a great way to display photos!
i would get the sisters necklace
Jennifer, the sister necklace is cute but my sister would never wear it. I like the Love Letter Necklace the best.
The get lucky dice would be fun!
The Chocolate Covered Oreos look devine. Hubby is a big cookie monster and would love them.
How about the Chocolate Covered Oreos for the hubby and then the Hand Dipped Cherries for me?
Sue, you can’t go wrong with chocolate or cherries!
The hearts embrace necklace is beautiful.
austma7@aol.com
In the spirit of V-day, I’m packing the get lucky dice too.
love they stuff,,,really like the Hnecklace
