In about ten minutes, you can make someone feel loved for Valentine’s Day. Here are five fresh ideas for you using stuff you probably have around the house:
1. Mix up a love potion
Follow the tasty (and fast) instructions from the lovely Marie at makeandtakes. Serve your love for breakfast, snack or dessert.
2. Turn your baby into a conversation heart
Got construction paper and a cute baby? Now you just need a sense of humor and your camera to make a funny conversation heart greeting. When creativity is failing, Love ya! works.
3. Crank out some decorations
If you have paper or fabric scraps, you can make quickie hearts to hang about the room. It really sets the tone for your daytime date.
4. (Heart) someone or something
All you need is a Sharpie and a plain white tee to make your baby be the bearer of your message of love. See instructions for speedy onesie customizing.
5. Have sex or something like it
If you don’t have time for a full-on session of making whoopie, might we suggest the “5 minute fix” from Babyproofing Your Marriage? If that’s not to your liking, there are many other great sexy, fast, and easy ideas from Kristen Chase’s sexual resolution (like wear a thong, make a sexy playlist, or give a massage).
Now, I really hope that someone is planning an eleven minute surprise that will knock your socks off!
