DIY Valentine’s gifts are a cute and thoughtful way to put a personalized touch on your gifts to make your loved one feel extra special.
So here are some of the best DIY Valentine’s gifts that your significant other is sure to appreciate and don’t require any major crafting skills.
1. Jar of Kisses
This is one of the easiest and most romantic DIY Valentine’s gifts!
All you need is a mason jar and a bag of Hershey’s Kisses. Then just place a cute notecard that says “Kisses for when I’m not around” and you’re all set.
2. I Have a ‘CRUSH’ On You
This is such a fun and unique Valentine’s day gift idea. No sweeter way to tell your loved one that you’ve still got a crush on them! 🙂
Just grab some glass bottles of crush soda and add a cute tag saying ‘I have a CRUSH on you’ and you’re done! Super cute and creative.
3. Open When Card
“Open when” cards are a thoughtful and romantic gift idea for Valentine’s Day. All you need to do is to write a series of letters for different scenarios and try to be fun and creative with “when” you want them to open the letter. For example, “Open when you’re upset” or “Open when you miss me.”
This is a super cute gift idea for your boyfriend/girlfriend that gives them a little reminder of you when they are in need of it.
