Valentine’s Day does not have to be so difficult when it comes to finding a gift for your special someone. You can always find baskets, frames, vases, and more at Goodwill to spruce up a gift.
The sweetest thing about shopping at Goodwill? Items start as low as $.89 cents and your purchases impact the community. In fact, in 2021, Goodwill’s diversion rate rose to 90%! Meaning whether you donated or stopped by to shop, through redesign, reduce, reuse and recycle, 90% of those items were kept out of the landfill and given an extended life.
This year, add that special touch to those red-rose bouquets and try these easy DIY’s with vases found at Goodwill!
Initials Vase
It can be hard to hide a gift let alone have time to make one. With this vase, simply add you and your special person’s initials. All you need is acrylic paint, paintbrushes, and paint pens to design the heart and lettering, and mod podge to coat and seal. Quick and easy!
Star-Crossed Vase
If you have time for a more detailed vase, paint some stars! With a quick web search, look up each other’s zodiac constellations. In this case, Leo and Aquarius constellations are painted along with a heart constellation in-between. Made with paint, a brush and coated with mod podge as well, this star-crossed vase will surely be meaningful.
DIY vases are limitless, with a variety of colors and sizes available at Goodwill, and you can spruce up any by painting hearts, your full names, special dates, pictures, and so much more!
So, share the love for your neighbors and community by shopping at a location near you this Valentine’s Day for that special gift! Be sure to tag us and show us your DIY projects @GoodwillNCT.
