Want to impress your valentine? Make one of these at the dinner table. I know I would be more than a little aroused.

Directions for Origami Scooter

Christopher Vine’s Santa Barbara Design Studio has had several products featuring this Vespa bearing a strangely square leg shield. That map behind the scooter looks to be Rome. Since I haven’t seen very many scooter water bottles, I had to post it. It’s $19.99. And since it’s red, it might make a great Valentine’s Day present. Here’s a greeting card of this design we posted in the past.

Thanks to Julie G. for this find.

Back in November 2011, the Japanese proved yet again how rad they are by releasing a bunch of Hello Kitty & Tokidoki designed toys in their 7 ELEVEN (!) stores.

These can still be found on eBay for around $10 including shipping.

I don’t like riding b*tch. Makes me too nervous. But these silhouettes make riding cupcake seem so romantic. The 10″ melamine plate is $24. Visit the site to see the whole selection featuring these scooter silhouettes, including prints, cards, etc.

Yes, you can order this Vespa Pizza Cutter for $17 . . . if you’re in Australia. Dwell in the UK had them for a month or so online but alas they have disappeared.

But as the only pizza cutter in the world that has its own kick stand, it’s worth the hunt.

Features two super sharp cutting wheels, with the second one to reinforce the slice. Made from food-safe plastic and stainless steel. Presented in a Pizza Scooter box. Dimensions: 17 x 12cm.

Last year I got all excited when I found a Triumph Tigress-esque valentine. Well it turns out I am a very lucky girl. Because a designer at Pottery Barn was probably one of the people I was bidding against on eBay. They feature the same valentine on a $12 card set, in a $20 plastic tumbler set, a $26 melanine plate set, in a paper heart garland and in a floor puzzle (available only in the stores.) Here’s a buying tip – if you just want the scooter plate, go to the stores and grab one. They’re just $6.50 and display wonderfully. The folks at my local store said everything would go on sale the week before Valentine’s Day.

Many thanks to Cara!

Moscato Bella 2010 is made from muscat canelli grapes and apparently is on the sweet side and is good for making wine cocktails. So this might make an excellent Valentine’s Day gift for that special someone. You can order it online for $12 not including shipping and if your state allows. Haven’t been able to find it at a major retailer yet.

Thanks to Madeline G. for this find!

P.S. Has any American mastered the Italian/French double air kiss? It looks so elegant but I just can’t seem to pull if off without feeling foolish or pretentious.

I’m embarrassed to say I can’t remember the name of the owner of this fine collection o’ swag. So if you recognize it as yours, please e-mail us at tips (at) scooterswag.com.

Did you acquire any scooters as Christmas presents? Then you may need a new keyring. Heal’s in the UK has this little Vespa in red or cream for £12.50.
