Happy Valentine’s Day friends! I love love, so naturally I am a huge fan of Valentine’s Day! I’m always down for an excuse to gift a sweet treat, and V-Day is the perfect time to do so!
Today I’m sharing this DIY Valentine’s Day gift in a jar idea for all of you that are looking for a super cute and super easy gift idea for the holiday. This is a great Valentine’s Day gift idea to give to a girlfriend, or even your man to enjoy as part of a date night with you at home.
Forget the box of chocolates and give the gift of homemade cookies instead! That’s right, this DIY gift in a jar is filled with delicious cookie mix!
I like the idea of pairing the cookie mix jar with a gift card so you and your loved one can plan a date night, so that’s what I’ll be doing this year. I found a cute Valentine’s Day themed Vanilla gift card at Walmart to pair with the DIY gift in a jar and it all worked out perfectly!
The Vanilla gift card makes for a thoughtful gift for you and your loved one. You can use it to plan a date night at home for fun things like trying a new recipe, or even a date night out for things like a dinner or a movie.
I like to view giving a gift card as gifting a memorable experience!
For those with kids, this DIY Valentine’s Day gift in a jar can even turn into a fun craft date for you and the littles!
You can pair the cookie mix jar with different cookie cutter shapes, decorative icing, and fun colorful sprinkles for a cooking making date the whole family can enjoy.
You could also gift each kid their own Vanilla Valentine’s Day gift card so they can head to the store with you and pick out their own cookie making supplies. This would make for a fun and relatively inexpensive Valentine’s Day activity!
