Choose the right lemon

Draw the outline of a bear on it, note that the snout of the bear will be the top part of the lemon where the stem went.

Use a blade to carve out the center, which is mainly the belly part of the bear.

Remove the lemon from inside till you're left with the lemon peel/skin.

Decorate it to your liking, add details to make it look more like a bear. Using a marker will help.

 Attach a peper clip on the back which will be used as a mini stand

So now that you have your lemon bear carved out and ready. It's time to get creative and use it anyway you want. What I do recommend is to just make a small heart shaped card and write something for your Valentine's to make them feel special. Put it inside the bear and you have yourself a cute Valentine's day gift for you significant other.

* You can also wrap the bear around a scented candle and put heart shaped chocolates!

Whatever you decide to give your loved one, use the bear in anyway. It will had more value to any gift because you took the time to make it. Now let me ask you something, how would you use this?
