Valentine's Day Gift Ideas

Valentine's Day Gift Ideas - TheCraftyMann.Blogspot.Ca

Valentine's Day is on Sunday. And I love Valentine's Day. In high school, I was told that was because I always had valentines. That wasn't true, I dated one guy at that time until my husband, and it was grade 9 so really, those relationships mean nothing. I think I've always loved Valentine's day because I love to give things to people: cards, gifts, chocolates, and I love to get that in return. I've compiled a list of things that I would love on Valentine's day. 

Check out my post about some valentines I made this year.

A colouring book and something to colour it with.

Serving dishes: I made this cheeseboard for myself last October, and one for my brother and sister-in-law's wedding. I was gifted those cheese knives, which say "to have" and "to hold", at my bridal shower.

Another thing I handmade- this pillow which I gave to Nic for our wedding.

Sugar cookie recipe from my mother-in-law
A recipe compilation! Even just writing out one of your favourite recipes for someone is very sweet! Go above and beyond? Make them one of those pre-mixed jars of cookie ingredients or soup.

Find something random at the dollar store. I was tempted to buy this Love Card Game, which asks you how well you know the people you love.

Instead of a cutting of flowers (which I love receiving), you can gift a live plant. This year, Nic and I decided to buy each other a plant for Valentine's day. I chose this new cactus, and he's still hunting for the perfect succulent.

What are you giving your loved ones this year?
