Picture Frames: The Perfect Gift



For this Valentines Day, I decided to give my special someone a gift of chocolates and a picture frame.  Since things are so new, I decided to keep things simple, but I still wanted him to know how much I appreciated him.  He was cooking me dinner (which was AMAZING, by the way).  So I felt that this little gesture, included a decorated gift bag by yours truly, was a gift straight from my heart.

Did you know that you can find all sorts of themed framable printables on the internet?  Pinterest is FILLED with all different ideas.  On my snow day this past week, I was getting ready for this weekend, I started to put everything together for my gift.  I decided that instead of just giving him a frame with the cheesy generic picture inside the frame, I wanted to make it a little more personal.  I started to look on Pinterest for different designs that I liked, and finally I stumbled upon this one: Catch my Party


Once I had the image downloaded, I saved it as a .pdf file, and when I went to print it, I chose the size of paper that the frame would fit.  For my particular frame, it was a 4x6 photo.  When it printed, it was the perfect size to fit into my frame!

I'm sure you can find all different printables for different holidays and occasions to dress up your gift.  It makes your gift more personal.  Some printables even allow you to write on the frame with a dry erase marker to leave someone you love a message.  

In our case, I don't really have any photos of the two of us, so I made sure to indicate on a cute sticky note that we had to a take a picture to place inside our frame.  

I really loved this gift and the way it turned out.  The next big holiday is Mother's Day.  What mother wouldn't love to open a gift like this?
