Remember the days when you used to cut out unevenly-shaped hearts from faded red construction paper? Or dump out a cylinder's worth of glitter onto a doily? It was such an effective token! It brought a smile to your mom; it let your crush know how you felt (before you ran away in a panic). We may not be so hands-on arts and crafts-y these days (seriously, it's impossible to draw a non-lopsided heart), but that's no reason to not send a simple sweet note to the significant others you love, be it your guy, your gal, your friend, or even your grandma. Check out some of the great offerings below, without the generic Hallmark cheesiness. And get your valentine cards out now— the 14th rolls around sooner than you think.
