Anyone can go to the grocery store and pick up a greeting card. Since the love you share with your sweetie is unique and memorable, why not make your Valentine’s Day message match? It’s easier than you think! I found this fun message in a bottle tutorial on Goodwill Industries of West Michigan (Muskegon)’s DIY Valentines Pinterest board and instantly swooned. It would be so easy to recreate with a tiny jar from Goodwill’s glassware section and a few other odds and ends. Check out this and the other creative DIY options they share for the upcoming holiday if you love the sounds of this as much as I do!

Maybe it’s your family you intend to shower with love this February 14. In that case, a little letterbox for each family member (packed with love notes and treats, of course!) might be a better way to go. Emily of The Anderson Crew blog found candlestick holders at her local Goodwill to provide the bases for each of the letterboxes she created! I love how each one is simple (i.e. easy), but together they become bold statement décor. Customize the boxes to your family’s specifications and watch their faces light up the moment they lock eyes on it. The magic of every holiday is in the memories we create. Don’t let this one be any different!
