CultureLabel's Anti-Valentine's Day Gifts for the Alone and Unloved:
January is mere moments behind us and yet we're already sick of Valentine's Day. Worse still? VD falls on a Sunday this year so the only meagre pleasure we have ever derived from it (watching as normally sane people try to navigate rush hour with helium balloons / roses / stuffed rabbits in toe) has been snatched from our very jaws. Never mind, to cheer ourselves up we did what we were born to do - shopping - and came up with our picks for a love-free month. Our remedy for the Love Hangover.
GET LOST:
Limited edition map print.
Leave no room for confusion with this 'Get Lost' print
DAVID SHRIGLEY - QUEEN SIZE DOUVET COVER
David Shrigley Medium: 100% Cotton Queen Size Duvet.
Let down? Know that you're not alone with the Stop Making Wild Promises You Can't Keep duvet.
BREAKFAST IN BED:
Soft cotton screen printed tea towel.
If you're fed up with being a skivvy, then say it loud and clear with this charming breakfast in bed tea towel. Perhaps they'll start washing up too.
HATE/LOVE, 2006:
Pigment print on watercolour paper, coated with UV filtering varnish.
Even less than a fine line between love and hate? Then remind yourself daily with this Love / Hate print.
SHAHNOZA, POLE DANCER:
Life size vinyl wall sticker.
Don't spend the day alone. Spend it with your very own personal private dancer. On your wall.
FULL SIZE ANTINOUS REPLICA:
Was £10,000 Now £6,000. Inspiring full size figure of Antinous.
And for the ladies... he's less agile than a private dancer but far more muscular
