Are you ready for Valentine’s Day? Maybe your special loved one wants flowers and candy, but there’s also a good chance that they want a gift card to their favorite place! I know many people who do not like giving gift cards because they see them as an impersonal gift. Whenever I give a gift card, I find that adding a handmade element softens the impersonalization of a gift card.
