Valentine’s Day whimsy is in the air and everyone loves receiving a heartfelt, personalized gift. Here’s a list of gift ideas for your partner, friends, or family that will make their Valentine’s Day more special.

♡  Burn a CD or make a playlist

If you can, burning a CD is the perfect personalized gift for music lovers. It’s physical media so they can keep it forever and you can even make cool cover art or draw on the CD and get creative with it. If you can’t burn a CD or your loved one doesn’t have a CD player, making a playlist is great too.

♡  A heartfelt letter

As cheesy as it sounds, many people would love to know how much you appreciate them, so if you want to, a letter could be a great idea.

♡  Make their favorite food

If you’re good at it, personalized cooking and baking is always a great gift.

♡  Get gifts for their pet

Sometimes the way to a person’s heart is making their pets happy. Also, sometimes you might like your Valentine’s pets more than them, so if that’s the case, treats and clothes for their pet is a very sweet idea.

♡  Scrapbook

Scrapbooking can be super fun, especially for artists. You can incorporate drawing, collaging, junk journaling, or photos into it. This can be whatever size you want and you can totally take lots of different directions creatively, making it a really fun and personal idea.

♡  Get them something you know they broke or lost

As simple as this is, it’s very touching when someone listens to you and knows you. This is a heartfelt gesture and it’s also functional so they’ll appreciate it a lot.

♡  Make a basket of their favorite snacks and drinks

Sometimes a bunch of small gifts and treats is better than one big one- especially if you can’t think of what to get for someone. If you do this successfully, they will appreciate how well you know them and enjoy everything you get them.
