Celebrating your relationship on Valentine’s Day doesn’t mean that you have to do it at the cost of your savings. There are plenty of budget Valentine gifts, which will impress your sweetheart and at the same time won’t burn a hole in your pocket. Given below are some thoughtful but cheap valentine gift ideas. |
Flowers: Flowers are always a hit with women. A great idea is to pick the season’s flowers from the garden and make a bouquet with a red rose at the center. You can simply gift it to her by saying ‘there are many beautiful women in the world but you’re the red rose of my heart’ or ‘my love has the fragrance of all these flowers’.
Keepsake boxes: A keepsake box is really easy to make. If you can do a little carpentry you can also make a box from scrap woods. Or else, find a cardboard box and decorate it with cutouts from old Valentine’s Day cards and your photos. Attach a heart shaped lock to it and gift it with a note that says, ‘I’m locking my heart in this’.
Chocolate heart cupcakes: If you are good at baking then nothing can compare to some tasty home baked chocolate cupcakes. You can search online for a perfect chocolate cake recipe. When you are putting the dough on the baking tray push a small block of chocolate inside it. This way the piece of molten chocolate will remain at the heart of the cake waiting to surprise the love of your life.
Reasons I love: You can make a booklet out of card stocks and write all the reasons you love your partner. Paint the cover in bright color and name the booklet ‘The # of reasons I love you’. You can also make conversational pebbles from hobby clay and engrave them with special messages.
Engravings: Engravings can have an everlasting effect. With little guidance and practice you can make beautiful wood or metal engravings for your Valentine. You can get a wood carving kit from local hobby store. Carve your message of love on a piece of wood and gift it this Valentine.
Jelly bean cocktail: If your lover has a sweet tooth you can make a jelly bean cocktail for the most important person in your life. Fill a cocktail glass with multicolored jelly beans. You can also put the jelly beans in layers to create a color contrast.
Homemade spa: Get a chance to pamper your partner on this Valentine. Gift him/her with a homemade spa kit that has inexpensive candles, homemade soaps, bubble bath, dried flowers, facial masks, scrubs etc.
Valentine dinner: Make a special Valentine dinner for your partner with his/her favorite items. You can also choose dishes and desserts with the hint of red color in them, like meat in red wine sauce, fresh salad with beet in vinaigrette, red velvet cakes etc.
Picnic for two: You can pack some quick picnic lunch and escape to a pristine country side. Choose a destination that is a few miles away from your home so that you can enjoy some quiet moments of togetherness during the drive. With few simple items like a picnic tablecloth, a jar of lemonade, sandwiches and hotdogs, and some outdoor games, you can plan a picnic even for your family.
Sensual massage: Give your partner a long and lingering sensual feet or back massage. You can also set the ambience right with aromatic candles and dim lights. Spice up the session by asking your Valentine which part of the body he/she wants to be massaged.
Movie night: Grab some classic romantic movies from the local DVD store like Roman Holiday, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Gone With the Wind, Adam's Rib, Casablanca, and Sabrina and snuggle up together in the living room couch to enjoy them. Arrange for some coke and popcorn to make it a perfect movie date.
Burn a CD: Burn a CD with all his/her favorite romantic numbers for that perfect Valentine’s Day gift. You can choose a combination of both old hits and new songs and play them when you are with him/her to set the right mood for the evening.
