What’s that? Nothing has caught your interest yet? Here are some more ideas you can further investigate:
- Try making a cute heart pillow (or pair of pillows!) for the bed our couch. Or, even easier, make a pillowcase out of an old favorite t-shirt of his/hers!
- Make strings of paper hearts to decorate the house or room. Use all different shades of pink, red, and white, and all different size hearts! Layer them, cut shapes out of them, and decorate them with doilies, pompoms, glitter, and stickers. You can even write memos, quotes, and poems on them!
- Create a fun coupon book! You can type them up and print them out, or write them by hand. Include treats like a trip to the movies, a home-cooked dinner, a night of stargazing, etc. It’s up to you!
