Homemade Valentines Day Gift Basket

Valentines Day Creative Ideas

I Love You

Creating your own homemade Valentines Day gift basket is a wonderful way to personalize a gift. These ideas are great for your spouse as well as a romantic partner.

There are several ways to indicate that the homemade Valentines Day gift basket theme is for Valentine's Day. The use of the color red for the basket or other container, red shred for the filler, or red ribbon, bow, or raffia to finish off the basket. Another way to indicate romance is to use heart shaped gifts, candy individually wrapped, or other favorite sweets.


Valentine basket Valentines Day Creative Ideas:
  • Tie a heart shaped cookie cutter in with the ribbon.


  • If your basket has a handle, tie lots of red curly ribbon cascading over the finished gift basket.


  • Use individually wrapped heart shaped lollipops to fill in empty spaces; stick them into the filler so they stand up straight.


  • Add a heart shaped gift card with red raffia or narrow ribbon to tie it to the handle.


  • Use silk rose petals in the empty spaces. Purchase silk roses at your local dollar store and separate the petals.


  • When putting together an assortment of Valentine gifts for husbands, include a pair or boxers with red hearts rolled up and tied with red ribbon or raffia. Animal print in a cute idea especially if you add a note that says "you bring out the animal in me."


  • Last minute Valentine gifts can be as easy as a bottle of wine or champagne placed in a small basket lined with tissue paper amid candy hearts.


  • Homemade twig hearts are easy to make and very personal. Add one to your basket or use it instead of a bow on a gift.


  • For the ladies, a homemade Valentines Day gift basket of all pink is lovely. If necessary, paint the basket, use pink filler and ribbon. Add rose scented pink candles, potpourri, and other toiletries. Top it off with silk pink rose petals.


  • These free printable heart gift bags, boxes, and wrapping paper will add decorative touches.
If your budget is tight, go to the local dollar-type store or discount department store. Walk down the aisles and look for empty baskets, glass bowls, red bows or filler, and appropriate gifts, candy, cookies, etc.
There are many lovely gift basket theme ideas that indicate romance. How about a spa gift basket, or breakfast-in-bed, or champagne theme? You will find information for dozens of themes on this website. Browse through the many webpages and I'm sure you will find an idea that is just right.

When you shop for items to include in your homemade Valentines Day gift basket keep size of the gifts in mind. An overflowing gift basket looks the best. However, you can always fill in the empty spaces with small treats or silk flowers. You will find more ideas on the assembly page.

Good luck with creating gift baskets for the special people in your life. If you need more help, write to me at GiftBasketIdeas@aol.com and I will respond promptly.
