Sitting around waiting for candy grams is so last year. Take charge of the season's sweetest day by showing the special people in your life just how much they matter to you. From your bestie to your babysitting charges, we've come up with creative ways to open your heart. So brush off your bow and draw an arrow it's time to play Cupid.
Your gang of girlfriends
Pack your bag with rolls of pink and red paper and ribbon, then book it to school early on Valentine's. Wrap your buds' lockers and decorate with their favorite things: Hershey's Hugs and Kisses, T-Swift song lyrics and construction paper conversation hearts.
A brokenhearted BFF
Whether she was cut from the team or recently dismissed by her dream date, your pal's present = quality time together. Grab a pair of mochas and a couple hydrating masks, then head to her house to give her your full attention.
The new girl
There's no such thing as too many friends, so invite her to sit with you at lunch, partner up in gym class or come over after school. She might not become your new bestie, but a friendly face in the halls is one of the best gifts of all.
The friend you're *kinda* crushing on
