Here are a few Valentine gift ideas you might like to use for some of the special people in your life.
Valentine’s Day is a time of year when crafters like to go all out creating and decorating cards and gifts.
In planning your projects, you might wish to consider that pinks and purples, and hearts and flowers may not be the perfect choice for the males you are creating gifts for.
Think about what is the favorite color of the person you are crafting for and what they might love to see on the mug, photo or other gift you are making.

When you get to the triangular part of the chocolate, twist both sides of the pipe, and twist it again, so that you get a little adorable Hershey kiss ring. Slip it on your finger and walla!
*If you don’t have the specific color as stated, you can use any other color. Just remember to be creative!
