The 85 Best Valentine's Day Crafts to Gift Your Sweetheart
And they're fun and easy.
This year, stop and take time out of your busy schedule to make a Valentine’s Day craft for someone special. You can always buy your sweetheart or bestie Valentine’s day gifts, but a DIY Valentine requires a little extra TLC. It also can add an extra sentimental touch. Galentine's Day is right around the corner, so you can sip and craft with your girls. And your kids always love to do a craft that involves food, so dig into some edible Valentines in the kitchen. Plus, you and your sweetheart can even carve out some time to make a joint Valentine’s craft.
And, to help you celebrate February 14 in style, we rounded up our favorite DIY Valentine’s Day crafts that would even impress Cupid. You can transform your home with a table runner made of hearts, a gold leaf vase, and a heart balloon backdrop. Want to make your drinks and baked treats even sweeter? Add colorful heart toppers to your cake, glitter to your wine bottle, and stick your desserts in adorable paper heart boxes. This list is full of fun Valentine’s Day crafts for everyone on your list. Bonus: these crafts can be used as decorations, gifts, and even special keepsakes year-round.
