wanna show your appreciation for your f/o? wanna dedicate some time or space to them (without spending money on merch)? just bored?? here’s a few of my fav things to do for my f/o!! :3
1 : Trinket Box
Sometimes, if I’m out somewhere and see a tiny knickknack or a pretty rock that reminds me of my f/o, I pick it up to add to my trinket box.
For this craft, you’ll need
- A small box, like a jewelry box
- Some paint, pens, or any medium that will stick to the material of the box you’re using
Then, decorate the box in anyway you’d like. Here, I painted it and drew my f/o in pen. I keep stuff in here that reminds me of my f/o, like little doodles, written song lyrics, and loads of teeny keepsakes.
2 : Recipes
If you love to cook or bake, this is for you!! On occasion I’ll see a dessert on Pinterest or irl and just think to myself, “omg my f/o would love that,” so, I’ll make it. Or, maybe your f/o has a canonical favorite food you could make! It’s so fun and gratifying to cook, and cooking for my f/o makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. :) plus, you get a yummy snack in the end
Bonus !! Write down the recipe on a little card and keep it in your trinket box.
3 : Letters
Write your f/o a letter! I’ve seen this recommended on similar posts before, but I cannot recommend it enough. Writing a letter to your f/o is a great way to talk to them directly. Personally, it makes me feel very close to my f/o. Also, they’re fun to reread after a while hehe. I like to write them out by hand and address them like you would a typical letter, but you could always type it out in your notes app. :)
If you’re unsure what to write in your letter, here’s some ideas:
- Tell your f/o about places you’d like to travel with them
- Write about what a perfect day would be like with your f/o
- Just write about how your day was! I find that this really helps me feel better after a bad day
4 : Playlist + Booklet
Making a playlist for your f/o is fun, but to take it a step further, you should try making a CD booklet! In case you don’t know, a CD booklet is the little book that comes with a CD, which usually has album-related art and the track list + lyrics.
For this craft, I like to:
- Make a playlist of about 15-ish songs
- Burn it onto a CD (this is extra tho hehe)
- Make a little square booklet by folding paper and stapling it together
- Dedicate a page to each song in the playlist and write why I chose it/why it reminds me of my f/o :3
- Put it all together in a CD case w/ the mix :)
5 : Your F/O’s Interests !
This activity is my personal favorite. Nothing makes me feel closer to my f/o than learning about their favorite things.
Personally, I’m learning piano on an old keyboard I picked up from a garage sale since keyboards are important to my f/o. I’ve also been watching zombie movies… this doesn’t have to be about picking up a new skill, it’s just about getting to know your f/o better. I find this activity to be the most rewarding out of all the others, and it makes my bond with my f/o even stronger.
bonus lightning round:
- INCORRECT QUOTES!! they are so corny but also SO fun. I use this website.
- re(watch/play/listen/read/consume) your f/o’s source
- recreate your f/o in a life sim like Tomodachi Life or the Sims
- make a moodboard or stimboard of/for your f/o
- if you haven’t already, make a Pinterest board dedicated to your f/o
- look up f/o imagines :3
- make accessories related to your f/o! soda cap pins, diy patches, kandi bracelets, and keychains are just some ideas
- make a side blog dedicated to your ship (that is if you don’t already have one haha)
