Introduction

Here is a list of some great, cost effective ideas for DIY Valentines gifts.

Homemade Valentine’s Day Cards

  • Use different colored papers.
  • Add stickers, stamps and glitter to your cards.
  • Make sure you use different sized papers so that the recipient can see the effort that you put in to making this card for them!
  • Decorate your card with hearts to show how much you care about the person receiving it!

A Heart-Shaped Sugar Scrub

Sugar scrubs make for a great DIY gift. These are easy to make, cost effective and can be customized to your recipient’s skin type. If you’re looking for something special and sweet, this is the one!

To get started, you’ll need:

  • A heart-shaped mold (or any other shape of your liking)
  • Sugar (white or brown)
  • Coconut oil
  • Essential oils (your choice of scent)
  • Food coloring (optional)
  • Ribbon or raffia string

Place 1 cup of sugar into a bowl and add approximately 3 tablespoons coconut oil. You don’t want too much coconut oil because it will become solid at room temperature; but if there isn’t enough oil in your mixture then the scrub won’t spread on the skin very well once it gets wet with water during use! Feel free to experiment with different ratios until you find what works best for you! Then add 5 drops each of whatever essential oils smell good together to create an aroma that compliments your Valentine’s Day gift box theme (for example lavender/vanilla). You can also add food coloring if desired but keep in mind that since most people will not be eating this product – it would look weird if they did so leave out any dyeing agents unless instructed otherwise by someone else who knows more about them than myself 🙂 After mixing everything together well enough until all ingredients blend nicely together without clumps forming anywhere throughout – scoop some out into whatever container suits best; put ribbon around neckline so as not damage lid when opening later on down road after opening date has passed by

Roses Are Red Socks

A pair of socks is a classic gift for Valentine’s Day, but it doesn’t have to be boring. You can also make it personal by picking out a pair that you know he will like—maybe you have the same feet or wear the same size shoe as him and know he likes your favorite brand. Of course, there are plenty of options when it comes to types of socks! There are crew- and tube-top styles in all sorts of colors and patterns, so even if your budget is tight, you should be able to find something affordable.

Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries

This is a simple, festive DIY gift for your valentine. The most important thing to remember is that you need fresh strawberries, not frozen ones. You can also use any type of fruit—berries and stone fruits tend to work well. Start by making the chocolate sauce by melting 1 cup chocolate chips and 1/4 cup heavy cream over low heat until melted; stir occasionally until smooth. Dip the tops of each strawberry into the chocolate sauce and place on wax paper or parchment paper to dry, about 15 minutes in a cool spot if you’re in a hurry (or if it’s cold outside) and up to an hour at room temperature if they’re not going anywhere faster than that! Once dry, dip again with some more chocolate sauce so they look like little hearts when finished! Store covered in refrigerator until ready to serve—these won’t last long once your loved one gets her hands on them!

DIY Photo Album

A photo album is a great way to show the special moments you have shared with the person you love. You can create one in a simple and cost effective way, by sticking photos on cardboard or using a photobook.

What you need:

  • A box of photos of you and your partner
  • Glue (you can use glue sticks or other types)
  • Cardboard or other material for backing

Personalized Mugs

  • Sharpie markers can be used to create a design on your mug.
  • Bake the design in the oven for 30 minutes at 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • You can purchase these mugs at the dollar store for as little as $1 each!

These gifts are easy to make and budget friendly.
