VALENTINE’S BOX DIY A FUN & MEMORABLE PRESENT STORY & PHOTOS BY KATIE SMITH
VALENTINE’S DAY IS A TIME to remind loved ones how much you care. It’s also a great time to tap into your creativity and make a unique, memorable, homemade Valentine. A Valentine’s box goes above and beyond making homemade cards (which are so fun to make and receive), and are great for anyone in your family. These also make great gifts for friends, teachers and anyone else you want to show your love and appreciation to. These boxes are easy to make, and only require a couple of materials you can source at your local craft store. The fun part is you can also customize these boxes. The outside of the can be painted and decorated, and you can put any kind of candy, gift card or special little gift nestled inside the flower border. 24 / BANGOR METRO January/February 2022
