12 Days of Columbus Dates

0

Holiday shopping can be so daunting, and finding gifts each year for your significant other can be difficult for some.

Recently, a good friend of mine told me about the “12 Days of Christmas Date Ideas.” The idea is to go on 12 dates throughout the next year with your significant other. I think this concept is so much fun and a great way to explore your city! The dates can be given as gift certificates and placed as a stocking stuffer or display the dates in a fun book and give it as a wrapped gift! There are a lot of ways to give this special gift, be creative and have fun!

Here are some ideas for your 12 dates Columbus Style!

  1. Watershed Distillery
