Despite the fact that the holiday of all lovers is a European tradition that has migrated to us relatively recently, some Russian couples celebrate it with pleasure. This is good because there is another opportunity to talk about your feelings, especially with married couples. You can not even give anything dear to your husband or wife on February 14, but come up with something original, do it yourself. Further in the article there are some simple and interesting ideas for a gift to your husband for this romantic holiday.

Handmade T-shirt

An original T-shirt with a self-applied pattern is something that you can give your husband for Valentine's Day and be sure that he will be delighted.

For work, prepare:

1. Plain cotton white men's T-shirt of the right size.
2. Acrylic paints for fabric.
3. Brushes.
4. White sheet and black felt-tip pen.

We start to create:

1. You need to choose a funny, romantic original drawing, for example, two joyful hugging cats, transfer it to its full height on a white sheet and circle it with a black felt-tip pen so that it can be clearly seen.
2. Enclose a sketch of the picture on the seamy side of the T-shirt. Draw a pencil around the drawing on the T-shirt.
3. Now you need to carefully paint the applied sketch with acrylic paints on the fabric. First, paint over the contour with a brush with black paint. If necessary, paint the details with a color, for example a red heart.

That's all done. You need to thoroughly dry the T-shirt within 24 hours and then iron the drawing from the inside out with an iron without steam. After that, the T-shirt can even be washed.

If you wish, you can sign your autograph under the picture that you drew with your own hands.

Or add a congratulatory inscription, wishes. You can even make T-shirts for both of you, some kind of family look. Use the same images or pictures that complement each other, make interesting inscriptions to them.

We give tea and sweets in an original way

Many women know that men are very fond of sweets. Why not give your beloved sweets for tea, you can even do it with tea and do it in a very unusual way.

This original sweet handmade gift should be presented to your husband on Valentine's Day.

For work, prepare:

1. Tin can of tea in the shape of a cylinder.
2. Long stick-shaped candy wrapped.
3. Round wrapped candies.
4. Thermal gun with glue sticks.

Getting started:

First, you need to glue the jar of tea with long candies in 2 rows on all sides. It is necessary to carefully bend the tails of the wrapper to one side, coat it lightly with glue and glue it vertically in a row tightly to each other on the jar. First the bottom row, then the top row

Now you need to make a handle for the mug. For this we use 2 round candies. We glue them in the same way, bending the ponytails to one side to the pasted jar, right on top of the long candies. We glue one candy up, the second one exactly below it. A handle made of long candies will be attached to them

Glue two long candies on top of round ones, connecting them and forming a glass handle

The glass is ready. Place it on a beautiful cardboard stand and wrap it in cellophane

You can not puzzle over what to give your husband on February 14, but pack tea bags with confessions and sweets with your own hands in an original way, as in the photo below.

2. Put some cut strips of folded paper into the box. Put tea bags on top. Tie with a ribbon and attach a bow.
