Because the best gifts involve a little TLC.

Let's face it, most of us wait until the last minute when it comes to Valentine's Day gifts. The week before the big day, we splurge on over-priced chocolates and rush delivery flowers just to get something to our loved ones in time. Not only is this scramble stressful, the resulting gifts are often dull and impersonal.

Instead of settling on a bland gift this year, take a few minutes to DIY something creative for your Valentine. You'll save time and money and get major cool points from your beloved.
