DIY // 100 Days of Love
I was really inspired by the 52 Reasons I Love You DIY deck of cards you’ve seen all over the internet. A good tutorial is here. But I wanted to do something different. Make it my own… you know? I couldn’t be more excited to share my spin.
52 Reasons is just not enough… and why give them the whole book at once when you can make the gift last longer… saaayyyyy 100 days. (wink wink) This is a GREAT gift, especially if your loved one is deployed. The idea here is that he will be able to pull out a reason(s) daily which will let him know how much you love him every. single. day. for 100 days!
-glue
-scissors
-mason jar (or other cute container)
-computer / printer or paper / pen
-decorations// tag, twine, chalkboard sticker (1.99 each at Michaels)
Same concept – write down 100 reasons why you love your partner. (parents, boyfriend, fiancé, girlfriend, husband etc). Triple space them and hit print! You can also hand write each one if you prefer. Cut out each reason in strips. Fold the strip of paper. Drop in a mason jar or some other cute container. Decorate jar and give! After the 100 reasons are up I like to give the full list as a keep sake.
