If you’re anything like me, you need someone to spell out what the expectations are in certain events. And if you’re also like me, you don’t consider the day before last minute. You don’t even consider the day of last minute. You’re just doing things as they come and the day of…well…it’s here and now it’s time to get ‘er done. Thing is, you still want to do a good job and show people that you care, so you race against the clock doing a meticulous job with what little you have and you tell yourself “I’m just doing the best I can.” Because you really are.
So, I have spelled it out for you to make your day easier.
Valentine’s Day planner to help celebrate the day
1. Honeycomb heart
You’ve gotten some honeycomb diamonds in your party stash maybe? Turn it into a heart once everyone has gone to bed. I LOVE surprises and love nothing more than to wake up to something festive. It creates a magic in the air. Hopefully your local party supply has a stash of these. Honeycomb heart installation by Melanie from You Are My Fave for Julep
2. Breakfast in bed

3. Heart balloons
Arrow and heart oversized balloons. Again, I like me a surprise. Put this outside the door right before everyone leaves. You know you’ll get a few squeals. Heart balloons by Kelly of Studio DIY.
4. Origami hearts
Remember those neighbors or school kids who NEED a Valentine? There is no time to make something crazy from Pinterest, but there IS time to print something off and fold them. Origami hearts from You are my fave
5. Printable valentines
Again, there’s no time to get fancy, so print off these floral/French Valentines for your loved ones. Printable valentines on Camille Styles
6. Valentine’s Day gift wrap
WAIT! You need to wrap the gift you got! Check out some easy ideas here and here to make your gift beautiful on the outside.
7. Flowers
We all know flowers are expected. But don’t try and order from someone fancy. There’s no time. Pick up some roses from the grocery store and put each one in a different vase.
8. Valentine’s Day dessert
Bake some cupcakes, add pink frosting, and top with these heart cupcake toppers. A perfect way to end the day!
