UncommonGoods has so many great gift ideas for long distance couples. Our favorite has to be their long distance touch lamps:

Light up a loved one's life—from anywhere in the world—with two or more of these in-sync lamps. When you turn one on with a simple touch of your hand, its mate emits the same ambient glow, no matter where it is in the world and who is on the other end: Parent or grandparent, niece or nephew, or long-distance significant other. Each person sets up their lamp via Wi-Fi, then reaches out and touches the lamp whenever they want to let their loved one know they're thinking of them. No need to choose a color: with every touch, the lamp cycles through a rainbow of them, one at a time.

Woodsnap prints your photos on beautiful maple and birch wood. We especially love their personalized wood boxes that are perfect for storing love letters and other keepsakes. They also make wood prints in any size and even different shapes (hexagons and hearts!) We love that Woodsnap is environmentally conscious and uses farmed wood to prevent deforestation - with every product they make, they plant a tree.

Do you have "a song?" Music Box Attic can help commemorate your song with a beautiful personalized music box. They have hundreds of songs to choose from, or you can send them your own recording.

They also have music boxes with traditional mechanical movement that can also be customized. Customization options include engraving (text and photos) and some of their music boxes even have LCD screens so you can make a video play on the inside when the music box is opened!
