No flowers for me this Valentines as all I was asking from Andrea is a Frida Kahlo build a bear. And it is exactly what I got plus some chocolates. I love this bear so much it is so me. Very flowery and colourful. I got Andrea a new multi-purpose hammer and a beard brush. Very simple things nothing fancy but just a simple token of love and appreciation.

A multi purpose hammer sounds like something I'd love too!! That bear looks awesome. Did you go to the store and make it?

Someone else made it for us. It's a limited edition one. The hammer does look very useful. Hopefully it can help him as he learns DIYs.

The bear looks very nice! Just don't let it eat any of your chocolates.

She’s been a really well behaved bear. If I had bigger space at home I would be collecting bears.

@DaddyEvil Hahaha I already have one that needs walkies my cheeky little dog, Cookie. She is both a blessing and a curse but more of a blessing.

@flapiz And just think, you don't have to take her for walkies or out for bathroom breaks.

I think it is a bit sad when people just about put themselves in hock (debt) buying gifts on Valentine's Day. I like your ideas much better. I didn't know you could buy beard brushes.

Yeah love has no price tag anyway. I believe it is the thought that counts and what matters more is how you treat your partner.

@flapiz There should be respect, love and kindness every day, not just on special days.

@JudyEv Very well said and I definitely agree on that one Judy. Everyday should be Valentine's Day. That's what good marriages are built on.

I’ve never heard of a multi-purpose hammer? What can a hammer do other than hammer? I’ve got a claw hammer that can remove nails. I suppose if it was big enough, it could be a door stop.

The bear is excellent.

Here’s a bear related Valentine’s poem for you: Mary had a little lamb, She also had a bear. And everywhere that Mary went, You could see her bear behind

Ahahah thank you for the Valentines poem.

It is a hammer, it can be a pipe wrench, a knife, a saw, a screw driver, etc. I think it has at least 12 functions.
