Valentine’s Day is coming up, but you have no clue what to get that special guy in your life. Whether it’s your BGF, BF or crush, you want a special gift that’ll make him blush. Well, the saying’s true: the best gifts come from the heart. GL’s got three homemade gifts to give your Hearts Day the right rhythm.
Don't have a fave fella right now? No worries! Tweak these prezzies up a li'l and they're perf for sharing with your BFF or you mom and pops. Love it!
You Are the Music in Me
Is that special someone a music lover? Try making him a mixtape of your fave songs. Whether the first letters of the tracks spell out your cutie's name or the CD has all of your songs (the special ones you danced to), this prezzie is sure to put a smile on his face. Pick songs from his fave band or tunes that describe the two of you together. Tie the gift together with some candy and a homemade card. It’s bound to hit that perf note!
Pictures of You, Pictures of Me
Do the two of you go way back? Document the story of how you came together with pictures in a cute scrapbook! Grab your fave shots of the two of you and arrange them in a little book with stickers and ribbon. Write a dedication in the beginning letting him know how much he means to you. This priceless gift (and the memories inside) is something he’ll be sure to hold on to for a long time!
Ain’t She Sweet?
The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach! Try making your cutie his fave treat: homemade fudge, brownies, cookies or cupcakes. Package them up in a darling box and be sure to decorate and tie with ribbon. Add a note about how sweet he is to you and the recipe in case he wants more!
P.S. Want to know the best way to make your cutie’s V-Day?
Just spend some time with your fella. Whether it’s a planned picnic or lunch, a movie date or ice skating, your guy just wants to be with you. Tell him face-to-face how much he means to you. The memories you make together are the greatest gift of all.
