5 Great DIY Gifts for Your Valentine


The clock is ticking. Valentine's Day is a mere 12 days away. Time to start helping your kids write out their class Valentine's and flipping through your recipes for a healthy party treat to send. I'm right there with you. I feel like we have exhausted our list of Valentine ideas over the years.

I thought it might help if I posted a few project ideas to get your creative mojo going. These crafts are all pretty simple but well received.
