but when joel came to visit that march, i gave him a handmade valentine that i'm
pretty sure is still one of his favorite gifts.
it involved two strings of hearts cut out from various color of cardstock;
one was titled "10 things i love about you" &
the other was a collection of memories we'd shared together so far.
they were enclosed in a little box upon which i'd written
cheesy lyrics from some of our favorite songs.
we actually still have them; i hung them up for decoration :)
i have to admit, i've been somewhat of a slacker in the handmade valentine department
since then, but i've been inspired by all the valentine ideas i've seen on the interwebs to make
something special again this year (er, i mean in the next couple days, eek!)
{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} |
hope you're inspired to make your mister a valentine {or a fort!}
