It’s the day after the Super Bowl and if you’re dragging yourself into work or class this morning, know that you are not alone. Well after watching that amazing game, we hope it inspired you to have an amazing week. Let’s start the week off by showing you a great project you can create for the man in your life. Check out this Valentine Gift Box for Him. Cathie and Steve created this project using a few supplies and Mod Podge. During this holiday of love, often times guys will get the short end of the stick when it comes to receiving gifts. Make sure that doesn’t happen this year and make him something that will make his heart skip a beat. This gift box is an intermediate level craft that will take about an hour to complete.
