Valentine's Day DIY

February 9, 2017 in candy, DIY, gifts, valentine's day

Valentine’s Day is less than a week away!  If you need a last minute gift idea, this is the post for you. This candy tackle box is a quick and easy DIY, not to mention a yummy treat!  I made this for my boyfriend last year and he loved it. He is an avid fisherman and loves candy, so this gift was perfect! Here’s what I used for the gift: 1. Flies used for fly fishing (the gift wasn’t only candy!)2. Storage container from Target3. Mini SweetTart chews4. Sour gummy worms5. Gummy worms6. Swedish Fish7. Lifesavers8. Goldfish   Once you have everything, it’s very easy to put together.  I assembled the tackle box about 30 minutes before I was giving the gift. This allowed the candy to still be fresh when the gift was opened. I’ve included some printable items similar to what I used for my gift that you can use as well. All you have to do is click on the images below to open and then right click to save.   This is such a fun gift to give for any Valentine! Give it a try and let me know what you think! xo,  P.S. My boyfriend now uses the tackle box to store his fly tying material.  It’s a gift that keeps on giving!

Let’s take a moment to pause and appreciate how cute this set is from @champion! It’s absolutely perfect for Spring! I would recommend going one size up on the shorts because of the cinched high waist. I’m wearing a M!
