What better excuse than Valentine’s Day for hunting down all these lovely heart shaped home products?
But they’re no means just for Valentine’s Day - in fact, these are much more longer lasting than a bunch of flowers or a box of chocolates.
We love the Amore range of heart shaped items, including the napkin rings and toast rack. The nickel plated toast rack will hold four slices of toast and even has a heart shaped handle at the top.
The napkin rings are made from stainless steel and come boxed as a set of four.
They’d be great gift at any time of year, and appropriate as a wedding gift too, or why not just treat yourself?
Both items are available from Beth Stevens, with the toast rack priced at £27.95 and the napkin rings at £25.95 (we’ve seen both elsewhere for £36.75 and £33, respectively, so this is quite a good deal).

 Heart casserole Le Creuset are renowned for making high quality, long lasting kitchenware and this gorgeous red heart shaped casserole dish is no exception.
Made from cast iron, and in shades of cerise, the casserole dish is shaped like a heart and comes with a lid. It can hold up to 1.9 litres.
As well as cooking up delicious casseroles and stews in it, you can also use the dish for making soups, stock, rice dishes and even for baking cakes.
The dish is made from cast iron, so it is quite heavy (2.7kg), but it’s hardwearing and long-lasting and can be used on the hob, in the oven or under the grill.
Head over to Amazon to buy your heart casserole dish.
If you think the cast iron is too heavy for you, then a lighter stoneware version is available too.

 Heart art This is a really nice idea.
This map heart art is produced on a bespoke basis - you choose the location of your choice, the designer finds an appropriate area in their vintage map collection and produces the art for you.
The map is cut into the shape of a heart, given a glossy finish and mounted, before being popped into a handmade frame. If you don’t want the frame, it’s also available unframed.
If you’re looking for an unusual Valentine’s Day present, then there’s still time to order one of these!
You’ll find all the details on Not On The High Street.

 Creative heart art This is a great piece of art by Brigitte Herod and one that could easily be replicated if you haven’t got £175 spare to purchase it.
The heart is made from lots of little button badges, all sourced from the 1960s, 70s, 80s and 90s, and if you look closely, you’re sure to pick out badge images that you remember from your past.
The picture is framed in a white box frame and looks great from a distance, as well as close up.
To own the original, pop over to Rockett St George and snap it up.
But if you happen to have a load of old badges stashed away in your cupboard, perhaps you could have a go at creating your own wall art?

 Decorative shell hearts
Home accessories made from natural elements, like these decorative hearts made of sea shells, are ever popular and are a great way of bringing the outdoor world into your home (and in this case, of bringing elements of the beach inside).
Sold individually, the hearts are available in two sizes - large and small.
The decorative hearts would look lovely propped on the mantlepiece in a lounge, or perched on a shelf in a bedroom.
The large heart is £35 and the small £26.50, and both are available from Graham and Green.

 Stacking heart ice cream bowls
What better way to eat ice cream than in these bright and cheery heart shaped bowls.
They’re made of hard wearing melamine and neatly stack together, so they’ll be all nice and compact in your cupboard.
Buying them won’t break the bank, as they’re only £10 for the set of four, from the V&A shop. Definitely a bargain buy!
