Oh, Paper Source, how I love thee!
This homemade Foxy Valentine is a super cute way to let someone know you think they are foxy! It is easy, inexpensive and creative.
Something like this can be made even more personal by customizing the label – for instance, with your Valentine’s name – or leaving something special inside. The something special need not be expensive either (though it would probably come as quite a surprise it was!); a love note, a memento of some special time together, your Valentine’s favorite candy or whatever else you choose. You could leave the humor at the outside and be serious on the inside or choose to keep the cute going, for instance, you could put some fireballs inside with a note that says “I think you’re hot!” or that sort of thing.
But why relegate this only to Valentine’s day? Make this and just omit the word “Valentine” from the label to remind your partner that you are sweet on them anytime of the year.
Or, want to make something a little more PG for the kids? Take the brown favor box and make a bear and make the label read something more like, “You’re Bear-y special to me!” Yeah, it’s pretty cutesy but you know what? At any time of year kids would really dig something that was unexpected and made just for them. This is also an easy enough project for kids to make!
If price is a concern, you can make this even more frugal by just purchasing the favor boxes (under $5) and use construction paper, a glue stick, and a pen, crayon or markers for the other details. Take the idea, and make it your own! It doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to perfectly convey your intentions and your love! If you can do that, it will be the perfect gift for your Valentine.
Happy gifting!
