Celebrate Valentine’s Day, February 14th, with fun DIYs and treat your friend, family, or special someone to a gift from the heart! Try one of these simple yet thoughtful projects and get creative for Valentine’s or Galentine’s Day! No time to DIY? Not to worry, we have a few ready-to-go gifts on the list!

Handmade Corsage

For DIY-lovers, creating a cute paper corsage is a must! You can even schedule a Galentine’s Day hang out and send them craft supplies ahead of time. Pair them with flower rose soaps in their favorite color or bubbles in mini champagne bottles (or some real champagne)!

Crafting Fun

Speaking of DIY, for the crafty friend in your life, this is the perfect time treat them to some new decorating supplies! From twine string, to new ribbons, to silk flowers - there are so many options! Don’t forget basics like hot glue, glue dots, and floral wire or something they are always running out to get! Such a sweet and thoughtful gesture!

Glass Terrariums

This is such a treat for friends who love to decorate! If their Pinterest board has a home decor section, then they are going to love glass terrarium vases! You can leave them as is, add candles, or even some greenery and flowers! Our favorite design has to be the 10.5 in tall Clear with Gold Metal Geometric Glass Terrarium Vase but there are many others to choose from to perfectly match your friends’ taste and decor.

Balloon Fun

If your friends happen to be your roommates, why not set up a cute heart balloon wall? Just make sure to get their permission first! Use 3M strips and heart balloons for this set up, so there’s no damage to the wall if you’re renting. The best part is that it makes such a gorgeous backdrop that’s perfect for practicing the latest TikTok dance!

Bride-to-Be

Treat your soon to be newlywed friends a sweet dessert stand, napkin rings, or even fabric napkins for their home! There’s sure to be something on their wish list that they would love!
