Love is in the Air! ...and a little Make it Yourself Monday


In efforts to not ruin the surprise for Mark, I did not post what I made him for Valentine's Day last week.  Instead it will be my Make It Yourself Monday for this week!  Mark and I have never really been too into Valentine's Day but I decided that I would make his something "cheesey" this year and mail it to him since we are "long distance" this year.  After searching Pinterest high and low, I finally decided what I would do... "52 Things I Love About You" in a deck of cards.



Making this was the easy part... putting 52 reasons into words was the hard part!  I decided to type up my 52 reasons and then cut and paste them onto the cards.  Next step, punching holes in the cards and then binding them with the rings!  This wasn't a fairly difficult DIY but I was very pleased with how it turned out!  Mark even told me I should think about publishing... little does he know they're all over pinterest already.

Love is in the Air!
Mark decided to surprise me when I went home this weekend with flowers and the cutest little stuffed animal dog that sits on candy.  It was simple and sweet and just what I needed after a long week!  And yes, I do plan on sleeping with the stuffed animal dog.


Boys are so hard to shop for...what do you buy and/or make for them?
