Homemade Valentine's Day Gifts


Pin It

This year my husband and I decided that we would do homemade Valentine gifts for each other.  For his gift, I decided to pre-plan some date nights for the two of us.  Ever since my son was born  we had kids we have not really been consistant daters.  This gift will hopefully help us to take a step back from the hectic everyday and spend some time with just the two of us.  So every month there is the option of two dates to choose from.  Since this gift is for my husband, he will get to choose.  Examples include going to see a movie or going on a hike.  At the beginning of the month, we will open up that month's envelope and see the options.  Then we will plan the day to go and make all the arrangements.  I am excited to see if it will work!


For my two little girls I made these cute jelly bean bracelets.  I used a stretchy cord and a regular needle.  They were really easy to make.  The needle went through the jelly beans just fine and with little cracking.  Every jelly bean I threaded worked out and I didn't have to re-do any.  I cut out some pillow boxes using my Cameo and put a bracelet inside each one.  The jelly beans are the knock off Jelly Belly's from the WinCo bulk candy section.  I originally got the idea of a jelly bean bracelet from here.  So what do you do for Valentine's Day?
