Mondays are like a breakup; you fall in love with the weekend, and within a few short hours, you’ve lost the weekend and in comes Monday. Oh, dreaded Monday. That is why we’d consider using Melanie Chernock’s adorable Love Hurts kit to ease our heartbroken souls from the loss of yet another wonderful weekend. Equipped with all the essentials of getting over a breakup, this little kit includes a compilation of heart-wrenching songs that lead from anguish to an eventual epiphany, a candle for that mood burning sensation, a bar of dark chocolate so that you can indulge without gaining too much weight, and some tissues and vodka among other items.
Endearingly intuitive, Melanie makes love hurt soooo good!

Recently, I threw a farewell party for a friend who was leaving to pursue a career in Singapore. She wanted something to remind everyone of her, and because we had very little time to make something from scratch, we came up with simple customizable gifts to give out at her party: forget-me-knot journals.

We found these great faux leather journals in Daiso which came with long cloth closures to bound together. We drew hearts on each cover, and cut them out. Then we painted the first page of the journal with pink acrylic, and just glued the cover to the first page once the acrylic dried. She wrote a simple message onto each heart for every friend, and that’s it! Super fast to make, super sweet to receive, this forget-me-knot journal is sure to remind that loved one of your love!
Happy DIY Wednesday, guys!
