Carlye Wisel loves Fred Flare's homemade valentines for charity

By Venus Zine Staff
Published: January 9th, 2009 | 12:00am

Though the days of mid-February desktops filled with scribbled letters from class crushes are well behind us, Valentine making doesn't have to be a lost art. FredFlare.com, known for their quirky-cute products, are now calling for your own handmade cards and envelopes, allowing you to utilize those elementary skills once more. Mail your creation in by January 15 and the staff will sell them at the end of the month for $4 a pop, with all proceeds going towards Elder Craftsmen, an organization that brings crafting to seniors in NYC. Crafts for a cause? Now that's a good way to show some love.
