DIY Valentine's gift.


I am certain you have probably seen this project all over pinterest. 
I made this for Dave 2 years ago and I love it. 
It was such a simple, inexpensive DIY gift but it is really thoughtful too. 
Here is the how to:

Supplies:
Construction paper
1 desk of cards

Directions:
First, think of 52 reasons you love your significant other. 
Mine were anywhere from:

'You love me for who I am'
to
'You always give me a smile when I look at you'
to 
'You make me laugh at least once a day'

You can write these or type them, 
I typed mine up and printed them all out on a piece of off-white paper.
Second, I glued that piece of paper to another piece of red so I could add color to it. 
Then I glued that piece to each card. 
Last, make a front and back cover. Hole punch each card and put a ring through the top left. 
It turned out to be a fun little flip book of reasons I love Dave. 


Happy LOVE month!

  2. I made one of those for my husband last year--it's fun, and a good exercise in remembering lots of reasons why you like them.
