Valentines for Your Significant Other

Valentine's Day is less than a week away. What did you get your significant other? Did you get him anything? Well, just in case you are stumped, we have scoured the best blogs around to find a few super cute things you can make for your man. Homemade gifts are great because they are usually budget friendly, they are personalized, and they show the recipient that you spent time thinking about them. Here are a few fun ideas for you to consider:

In our house, no Valentine's Day is complete for my husband without the secret family recipe for cut-out cookies. The greatest thing about my husband is that if I make the dough and put it in the refrigerator, he will eat it like that - no baking, icing, or decorated needed.

JenJen at Tatertots and Jello came up this totally cool twist on the completely overdone idea of a Valentine's Coupon Book. She starts out with a deck of card and builds her layers up from that. Best of all, she shares her coupon template and shows how she changed her template to make one for everyone in her family. Tres chic!!

What guy would not like a six-pack for Valentine's Day? Well, my guy would probably not be too interested in a six-pack of beer, but he sure would love a six-pack of fun snacks to munch on. At Nap Time Journal, she repurposed cream soda bottles into this totally unique Valentine's Day gift. Jeremy's will be filled with plain M&M's, peanut M&M's, gummi bears, conversation hearts, peanuts, and Skittles. The best part, I don't have to feel guilty drinking all that cream soda! Yum!!

I thought this 'Love You' from 320 Sycamore was a fun gift idea for your Valentine's desk or dresser and so simple. Just a frame, some scrapbook paper for the background, and some scrabble tiles. If you didn't have scrabble tiles laying around your house, you could just print your message on the scrapbook paper. Just sayin'...

I hope you found something that you can make for your significant other this Valentine's Day. If you aren't crafty, you could always write a heartfelt poem or letter to your husband. Remember, it is the thought that counts.
