unTraditional Anniversary Gift Idea

It is tradition to buy anniversary gifts related to a specific material for each year of marriage. This tradition started in medieval Germany and has been adopted by most nations. Sticking to a traditional material can make the gift more meaningful whether for your own anniversary or for another couple…and adding a sexy touch will just be extra meaningful!

Here is a fun list of ideas for each of your anniversaries based on the traditional and modern materials.

First Year Anniversary
Traditional: Paper
Modern: Plastic

Paper:
A sexy first anniversary gift for paper would be a book like Kama Sutra Step By Step that takes you through the traditional art of love making from sensual touching to provocative sexual positions. Getting the set Blow Him and Going Down would be both rewarding and considerate!

Plastic:
Sex toys like BGee to help her discover her G-spot, or BGood that is versatile, or BNaughty to hit the perfect spot will keep the marital bliss going.
Adult DVDs would also keep the fun going. Choose from educational themed DVDs or erotica.

Second Year Anniversary
Traditional: Cotton
Modern: Cotton/Calico

Lingerie with cotton like the Cupcakes Cropped Cami and Short set is both sexy and comfortable. A calico print vibrator like the Temptress or an animal print Wild Cat lingerie set from Betsey Johnson would have her purring!

Third year Anniversary
Traditional: Leather
Modern: Leather

For the third year, Honey has some even racier ideas! Leather Corsets such as the Leather Corset with Purple Ribbon, Leather and Lace Baby doll or Teddy would be stunning. Combine the outfit with Leather Under the Bed Restraints and Floggerella for some light bondage and you will have an anniversary to remember.

Fourth Year Anniversary
Traditional: Fruit/Flowers
Modern: Linen/Silk/Nylon

For a fun take on fruits/flowers you could plan a sensual anniversary evening with your partner starting with a lovely bath sprinkled with the Rose Bath Petals and moving on to a lovely massage with fruit scented Making Love Sensually Flavored Massage Oil in strawberry or kiwi-pineapple. Mix and match your anniversary themes and wear the sexy silk thong with bow with a sexy pair of nylon stockings such as the Sheer Backseam with Lace Top Stockings or the Romantic Lace Body stocking.

Fifth Year Anniversary
Traditional: Wood
Modern: Wood

A creative gift to fit the wood theme would be an adult board game like A Hot Affair that was awarded Adult Board Game of the Year. Or 101 Nights of Great Romance with sealed pages for romantic rendezvous all year long.

Tenth Year Anniversary
Traditional: Tin
Modern: Aluminum

It’s time to splurge a little bit for your tenth anniversary with a luxury toy like Jimmy Jane Little Chroma. Made of beautiful metal with a colorful array of colors and a high quality motor. The One Touch Silver Bullet or Elite 5x Bullet would also be a delightful way to celebrate your tenth anniversary!

Think outside the box for a fun adventure to every anniversary!

Aphrodisiac Recipes to Heat Up the Holidays

Take turns feeding each other this decadent desert!

Don’t forget about setting the right mood! It is important to bring the right atmosphere together to seduce the senses of your lover. Candles such as the Jimmy Jane Afterglow Massage candles or the Soy Massage Candles play double duty providing a gentle light and soft scent to start off the mood and having the alternative purpose of being a warm massage oil. A sprinkling of silk rose petals from our Bed of Roses across the bed and floor, music from Exotica Chocotasy CD and some sexy goodies such as the romantic pleasure feather and Ceramic massage stone help complete the experience.

The most powerful aphrodisiac of all is the pure enjoyment of one another. Spending some extra time over the holidays to relax with one another in a sensual atmosphere will do wonders for your relationship and sexual enjoyment.

Sexy Costumes for Bedroom Role-Playing

Role playing has long been a part of our sex games and fantasies; it allows us the freedom and liberation of being someone else for a few hours to play out the fantasies and try out the persona of the role you are playing. Three of the most popular fantasy costumes include:

Naughty School Girl: The cute and flouncy plaid skirt, pigtails, white button down top and white knee high stockings. The fantasy usually includes a teacher who needs to discipline the naughty school girl. This fantasy is popular because it allows the teacher to be in control and for the student to give up control. Over the years at our retail store we have had customers question the meaning behind the school girl fantasy. A fantasy played out between two adults is just that- a fantasy come true! It is about dominance and submissiveness. And of course Britney Spears probably made it even more popular! Check out some the cute School Girl, and Private School Girl costumes. Combine this fantasy with accessories like the Naughty Ruler.

Naughty Nurse: The Naughty Nurse is still one of the top fantasy costumes! We all know nurses don’t go to work wearing anything that even slightly resembles any of the sexy nurse costumes but that won’t stop this classic fantasy. This scenario usually involves the nurse attending to the patients every sexual whim to bring them back to ‘health’. The nurse in this situation can be the one in control with the ‘sex prescription’ to sexually satisfy the patient or she can give orders for the patient to sexually satisfy her. And of course this costume can also be used for the doctor and nurse fantasy! There are plenty of sexy nurse costumes to choose from, check out the Naughty Nurse, Night Nurse, Vinyl Nurse, Day Nurse, and the Darque Nurse. Accessories are also key to completing a role-playing fantasy. Complete the outfit with Naughty Nurse Opaque thigh highs, leather crop, Jo Flavored Lubricant and the Roughneck Realistic Vibrator.

French Maid: We are not sure why this fantasy came about…except if a stranger comes into a room with practically just a bed and dressed in a sexy outfit with fishnets, a sexual fantasy is sure to arise! At Honey we carry two sexy French maid costumes, the Upstairs Maid and the Chamber Maid. And don’t forget the accessories to complete the outfit like the Fishnet Thigh High Stay-ups and the Pleasure Feather!

There are many role-playing costumes to have fun with like the Policewomen, Little Bo Peep, Pussy Cat, Fire Women, Cheerleader, Prisoner of Love, Sweet Fairy, Geisha Girl, Sexy Mountie Girl … etc. Take a look at all the Sexy Costumes!

Some General Guidelines for Sex Games and Role-play:

1. Agree to the basics of the fantasies rules; for example, if using bondage or spanking in your game agree to how far you wish the fantasy to play out. I.e.: if you wish to see marks or no marks etc.

2. Designate your roles, this helps make the role playing more realistic as you will know which role you are playing.

3. Have a “safe word”. A word you both know and understand to absolutely mean STOP! Choose a word that is not easy misunderstood or misheard, some examples are “Roses” or “Peanut Butter.” These words should tell your partner that it is time to stop.

Have fun and indulge in as much play as you can with your partner! Your bedroom should not only be a place of sleep but an adult play zone. As they say…couples that play together stay together!

A Sexy Easter Pleasure Hunt

Celebrating the Easter season with chocolates and rabbits is always fun, but this year why not try something a little more daring with your partner for the Easter weekend. A fun way to spice things up is by sending your partner off on a sexy pleasure hunt, with you as the grand prize!

You can make your hunt as simple or complex as you wish, but here are some fun tips and tricks to make the wait worth the rewards.

1) To get your partner following your trail try taking some sexy photos of yourself using a digital or Polaroid camera. You could start off tame and show each photo with a little less clothing and a naughty pose, be adventurous and make a combination of naughty, risqué and sexy poses to lead them along the way.

2) Start off by putting your tamest picture someplace easy to find. Be creative and put the picture in a box of Easter chocolates or candies, and maybe a hint or clue as to what you wish them to do or where you will be.

3) Create a path throughout your home with each picture becoming racier; leave a few sexy treats like the furry cuffs, or Belgian Chocolate Body Paint along the way to spark some sensual ideas.

4) For yourself as the grand finale you had best take a good sip of wine and set yourself up in your sexiest duds. Whether you choose from racy lingerie or your birthday suit and a pair of heels, you should feel sexy and empowered!

5) Now here comes the fun part: you’re all sexy and fine and you’ve got your partner looking for you in anticipation, but how do you want to be found? Slinky in the bed with a feast of delights beside you? Or already restrained with the under the bed restraint system and ready for them to make a meal of you with the deserts you’ve left along the way. However you desire your treasure hunt to end from being tied up in bed to having a fun bath together with some passion bath salts you know that this will be a pleasure hunt you both will never forget.

If doing the full Easter hunt is too difficult due to little children running wild, perhaps a mini hunt is the way to go. Slip a sexy note or picture into your partner’s pocket during the morning and even a couple more throughout the day. This provides some stimulating anticipation for a fun night ahead. Slip them a designated time with the last sexy note and then be sure to have the little ones off to bed or with a sitter so that you can set yourself up as an Easter treat.

Valentine Picnic In Bed

Feeding your desire

Sex and food have been erotically linked for ages. Think of Marc Anthony feeding Cleopatra grapes. Casanova is rumored to have shared oysters with his lovers to stimulate their sexual appetites. And who doesn’t remember the steamy kitchen scene in 9 1/2 weeks? It’s not unusual to feel a familiar tingle while slowly savoring each bite of your favorite flavors. After all, aroma and flavor tease the senses in bed and at the table alike.

A Valentine’s Day picnic in bed is an ideal way to enjoy delectable delights of all kinds. No need to worry about recharging your batteries for your extended play session if you bring the right accoutrements to bed, namely sweet and savory items guaranteed to whet your appetite.

First, lay out an easy-to-wash picnic blanket to catch any crumbs and any, ahem, moisture. The Luscious Sex Blanket is a perfect moisture-proof playscape for your Valentine’s romp. Plush on one side, silky satin on the other and featuring an inner moisture barrier, it will keep your dry-clean only duvet spotless.

Now, what’s on the menu? Let your appetite be your guide. Here are some scrumptious suggestions:

• A sprinkling of Kama Sutra Honey Dust, made with pure, natural honey has a delicate scent and irresistible taste. Tickle and tease your partner with the soft feather applicator.

• Create an edible masterpiece with Belgian Chocolate Body Paint. This quality chocolate is sure to please the most discriminating chocoholic.

• Did you know the strawberry was a symbol of Goddess of Love Venus, because of its color and heart shape? Best of all, this fruit is just perfect for dipping in melted chocolate to feed your lover.

• Make oral sex even more fun with flavored lubes like ID Juicy Lubes or naturally flavored condoms like O’My Blo condoms.

• Grapes, a la Marc Anthony feeding Cleopatra, will ramp up your desire. Just be sure to buy the seedless variety!

• Because tingles shouldn’t be limited to below the belt, tickle both your tongues with a mouthful champagne as you kiss.

• To heat up your romantic romp, use edible oils that warm the skin and get hotter with the softest of blows, like Oil of Love.

• How many licks does it take to get to the centre? Find the answer with the help of silky, sultry Body Licks Skin Candy.

• Nipples will stand at attention with the help of a fruity balm like Nipple Nibblers. Or apply to your lips before giving your sweetie a surprisingly tingly kiss.

• Don’t forget honey, perfect for drizzling. An added bonus is honey is a natural moisturizer.

• Top off your lover with whipped cream and a cherry.
