DIY Gift Ideas For Your Valentine

{By Cassie ~ January 29, 2009} 

Valentine’s Day is a perfect time to celebrate the ones we love and I just dig the pink colors too! Here are a few gift ideas that are so easy you could whip them up in an hour or so.

valentine-ball

Jeanne Winters made this Valentine Sparkle for her daughter while keeping the theme “You Are Loved” in mind. Each ribbon represents someone in her life that loves her. Isn’t this a great way to cherish Valentine’s Day?! You can see the directions on her blog here.

soap

Just-A-Girl has a great tutorial for these outstanding decorated soap dispensers. An exceptional gift for teachers and perfect for combatting those Winter germs.

kiss-jars

Tanya - another creative blogger - came up with this Valentine’s Day craft called Kiss Jars. She and her children took old jars, decorated them and filled them with Hershey’s hugs and kisses to give to family and friends. This gift idea makes a great Valentine’s Day activity to do with your kids too.

If you end up making one of these gift ideas, let us know so we can check it out. Happy Gifting!

    Great ideas. The soap dispensers are perfect! You could baby it up as part of a baby gift too! I go through gallons of hand sanitizer with a newborn around.
