It's Black Friday on Mommy's First Year!
Today I'm sharing with you about a fun product called Datevitation - a custom gift book of coupons for your loved one. It would make the perfect Christmas gift for your...husband,wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, parent, or child!
What's more...this custom gift book is the gift that keeps on giving with lots of fun date ideas!
I don't know about you, but sometimes its hard to come up with gift ideas for my loved ones, or maybe it's even hard to think of only ONE gift because you could come up with so many ideas.
Well, Datevitation would be the perfect gift!
I know it's going to be perfect for my hubby whose love language is quality time!
Datevitation.com is actually the web's first online platform to create a custom love coupon book. Unlike the pre-packaged love coupon books on the market, you get to be the one to custom pick the dates and even customize the text to your liking! Once you are done customizing your book {right down to adding your own faces!}, Datevitation will then print it out and ship it to you. It will arrive right at your door in this fun packaging!
So how do you make one, you ask?
Well, let me walk you through it!
Go to www.datevitation.com and click on 'make your book'.
To ensure the book is designed to your gender needs, you will be able to select if you are a man/woman/boy/girl and who you are giving the gift too. This will give the correct bodies for the pictures on your coupons.
You will then get to select a cover. There are over 100 cover options for you to choose from to suit any occasion...from birthdays to holidays to congratulations and just because, you will be sure to find what you are looking for!
Next is the best part! You won't want to miss this step!
Be sure to upload a picture of each person's face!!
This will make your coupon book EXTRA special and personal as it will show you and your loved one doing the activity stated on the coupon.
How fun is that!??!
As a side note, if you are a girl with short hair, you may have to pick your hair from the men's options...or choose something a little longer. Other than that, this part is my favorite part of the coupon book!
Next you get to pick your dates.
The standard coupon book contains 5 date coupons for $25 but you can add additional date coupon pages for $1 each.
As I mentioned above, these coupon books are good for ANY loved one! It's perfect for a boyfriend, girlfriend or spouse, but it's also great for kids and parents! Datevitation has recently added over 200 new activity illustrations specifically designed for families.
And again, don't forget to add your own face :) Your kids will love this!
But if you are making a coupon book for your sweetie, there are some "adult only" options too! From sweet and innocent to a little more hot and steamy too. No lack of creativity here!
This also is great if you are in a date night "rut" with your love {or even your child} as their library offers over 500 date ideas!
As I was making my book for my hubby {sorry love, I just ruined the surprise} I found some fun, new and exciting things for us!
Finally, to finish up your book you can customize the phrases to go with each date. But, if you are unsure of what to say, lacking creativity, or even just in a hurry, each date comes with a phrase already! You can even keep part of the phrase and add in some of your own words. I liked that! You even can choose a statement from a handful of options for the intro page (kind of like in a card) or you can write your own message or request a blank page to hand write the message at home.
I'm so excited to give my custom book to my hubby for Christmas! I think he is going to LOVE it!
I'm even more excited to do some of our date ideas on the coupons!
Since I made my own book already, I do have a tip for you as I kept getting frustrated as I was in a hurry and user error was slowing me down.
As you are working on your book, be sure to always scroll to the bottom of the screen {or the top} and click 'save & continue' on the right.
If you navigate back and forth with just the top tabs you keep losing your work {such as your added faces and changed text and date ideas}.
Now, before you run off to order your own custom coupon book,
