An easy way to cherish memories during Valentine’s Day is by making a heart-shaped photo collage. You can do this by printing small photos and cutting them into heart shapes, or using small heart-shaped frames. These can be attached to a poster board or a larger frame. You can also add glitter or hand-drawn designs to the collage to make it more personal.
- Valentine’s Day Candle Holders
DIY candle holders are a cute and fun way to decorate for the holiday. This can be done by using a small glass jar or mason jar and tissue paper. The tissue paper should be in Valentine’s Day colors, such as red, pink, and white. This can be attached to the jar using a thin layer of Mod Podge and a paintbrush. After the tissue paper is applied, make sure to add another layer of Modge Podge over the top to seal it. After the holders dry, place a small candle or tea light inside.
- Paper Flower Bouquets
Instead of store-bought flowers, you can create your own bouquet that won’t wilt. To create this craft, you will need colored paper or cardstock, scissors, glue, and wouldn’t skewers or straws. To start, use the scissors to cut flower shapes out of the paper or cardstock in many different sizes. Then by laying the cutouts on top of each other and gluing them down, you can create a 3D effect. Use the skewers or straws as stems and attach the flowers. After you make a few flowers, arrange them in a vase or tie them together to create a bouquet.
- Valentine’s Day Jars
Valentine’s Day mason jar treats can be a fun way to create a handmade gift. You will need a small jar or mason jar and fill it with candy, chocolates, or any sweet treat. You can also decorate the outside of the jar with drawings, stickers, and a ribbon. Also to decorate the outside, write a short note or message and attach it to the ribbon.
- DIY Heart Garland

Using the paper, cut out hearts and different sizes in Valentine’s Day colors like pink, red, and white. With a hole puncher or scissors, cut holes in the top of each heart and thread a piece of string or ribbon through the heart. You can hang the garland over a door, on walls, or over the windows for a Valentine’s Day touch.
