A keepsake statue kit
Promising review: “I purchased two of these kits for my anniversary and we love how they turned out!! We waited until our anniversary to do these and we had a great, fun time working together. After the casting step, when we were able to remove the mold from bucket, it was like magic! I STRONGLY recommend these to those who are interested.” — April
A bucket list booklet
Promising review: “I purchased this for my husband for our first wedding anniversary. It’s a fun way to talk about your future together and how to accomplish your goals as a couple. You can also go back and look at your old goals and read stories about how you accomplished it and how it was. My goal is to pull it out on every anniversary and write new goals down. Something small, but also cool.” — Amazon customer
A love language card game
Promising review: “I wanted to find some ways to get to know my boyfriend better as I’ve asked every question I could possible think of, LOL. I didn’t look at a single card before we played and it really helped further strengthen our relationship. The different categories make sure you leave no part of your significant other’s life unturned! I highly recommend!” — Braxton
A truth or dare game
Promising review: “My fiancé and I celebrated our six year anniversary on March 24, so I decided to get this as a gift for him. He loves it, and I love it too! We are very close, and it was so fun to be able to experience the mystery of the next truth or dare question. We know so much about each other, but this game really opened new doors to us becoming closer in other ways. I would definitely recommend it. Also, the size is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, which is great for discretion. We can easily travel with this product.” — Ro

A National Geographic geode kit
Promising review: “If you are considering this for your kiddo, please buy! My 8-year-old and I had an absoloute blast! She loves every geode. There was one we got that was more solid and she couldn’t get it open, so I got to smack it with the hammer and honestly it was not only stress-relieving, but it was also fun and beautiful! Would be great as a positive outlet for stress or just for kids who love sparkly things. I’d give this more than 5 stars if I could!” — Mandii Vi
A board game book
Promising review: “These have adorable vintage designs! Sturdy pieces. The board is ripping a bit but we’ve played this dozens of times with our toddler so I suppose that’s expected. Definitely more pricey than the cheap version you could get for $10 at any big store but honestly it’s worth it to me. It lasts so much longer and it’s easier to store. Having it in our front room on the bookshelf makes it easily accessible and blends in with our other books.” — Spooky Hobbit
A couples’ card game
Promising review: “I bought this as an anniversary gift for my fiancé. They loved it, the idea is amazing. There are questions in it that most people would never think of. We are going to gift it forward when we’re done with the cards so someone else can enjoy in the magical game. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get to know their partner better. It really has brought us closer and strengthened our bond. DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED!!” — Donovan Brewer
A Sriracha keychain that’ll spice up their life
Promising review: “I purchased this keychain combo pack as a joke for my son’s birthday. Sriracha is his favorite condiment and he has been known to bring a full-size bottle with him when he goes out to eat. He was thrilled with this! It was his favorite gift!” — DixieKnitter

A deck of Dream Decoder cards
And finally, a personalized candle
Promising review: “I got this as a birthday present for my dad. The label isn’t even my favorite part of this candle – the mahogany teakwood scent is AMAZING! The lid is airtight and the jar itself is great quality, so this’ll get plenty of use once the candle itself is gone. It was much bigger than I was expecting, too!” — Sophia Rokas
