Simple Valentine’s Gift Ideas
| I HEART this idea! Take an empty glass votive holder, drop a small gift inside, top it with an inverted paper cupcake liner, and tie with a pink string. |
Coat tiny planters with metallic paint – try Ralph Lauren’s Regent Metallics paint. Tuck in flower or herb seeds with a pretty label. Or make your own seed packages like they did here – small colored envelopes, simple stamps, and pretty handwriting is all you need to make this gift special. | |
| Buy inexpensive potted bulbs and repot them yourself into attractive planters. Don’t forget to create a pretty personalized label on a stir stick or around the rim of the planter. |
Buy a bunch of blooms from a floral warehouse or big-box grocery store. Place the flowers in a narrow drinking glass and then place inside larger glass container. Fill space between the two glass containers with red hots, candy hearts, or other colorful candy for a unique display. | |
| Do you have a drawer full of extra buttons? Grab some coordinating shank buttons that have holes in the back. Lace with 12 inch cording and create a special set of napkin rings. |
I hope your creative juices are flowing – only a few days left until Valentine’s Day!
