In most long distance relationships, people aren’t really expecting super expensive gifts but that special something to attach their feelings to. And during the search for perfect long distance relationship gifts, I found these nifty little items particularly interesting and heartwarming.

State or Country Heart Mugs

A store on Esty offers these “2 white ceramic mugs customized with two state outlines or country outlines of your choice, hearts on two cities of your choice and a whimsical dotted line connecting them”. Whether you’re busy at work or having breakfast at your kitchen table, it’ll serve as the perfect reminder and your love will grow deeper with every sip of coffee. She even offers further customization so don’t be shy to ask!

 

Keepsake Throw Pillow

Do you have that special event or memory that makes you warm and fuzzy inside every time it comes to mind? Now is your chance to make a visual reminder of that! Take a ticket stub or plane ticket or whatever memorabilia you may have to Kinkos, have them blow it up, print it on a fabric transfer sheet and make a pillow. The idea first comes from WeddingDayPin.com and it has since been Pinned more than two thousand times. It’s a bit on the DIY side so it’ll be extra meaningful if send it as a gift.

 

Relationship Diploma

What’s a better Christmas gift for your sweetheart than the certificate of Love? There are similar templates at DiplomaStore.com. Too reserved for your taste? What about something like this:

And the possibility is endless with a little Photoshopping. It is truly the best way to show what you love about him/her. Just put it on the diploma!
