With 75 Silhouette and Cricut Valentine gift ideas you are sure to find a gift that is perfect for your significant other, boyfriend, girlfriend, best friend, mom, dad, kids, or anyone else you want to shower with love this Valentine’s Day.
Handmade gifts are such a great idea for Valentine’s Day. It’s a holiday focused on showing someone how much they mean to you. What shows how much someone means to you than making them their gift?
Anyone can go out and buy a store-bought gift for someone. But making a gift shows extra effort and that effort goes a long way to showing how much you care.
Some of the gifts are home decor, some need the addition of some sweet treats, others are handmade modifications to every day items. Many of the DIY Valentine Gifts include free svg files or Silhouette cut files.
Perfect Gifts for an Anniversary or Birthday
Many of these gifts are also great options for an anniversary or birthday! They don’t just have to be for Valentine’s Day.
Gift Ideas for All Levels of Craft Expertise
Some of these gifts are easier than others. Don’t worry, there are tons of gifts at all different levels of crafting ability.
Some are semi-homemade and require store-bought items (like mason jars, candy, etc) while other items are completely from scratch.
