The Key to Crafting the Best Valentine's Day Gift Basket
Why settle for just one gift this Valentine's Day when you can give an entire basket of goodies, instead? Valentine's Day baskets are more popular than ever this year, and it's easy to see why. The extra thought that goes into making one of these baskets yourself or seeking out the perfect one for your Valentine shows them just how much you care and appreciate them.
When it comes to finding the best basket for your Valentine, you could go one of two ways: store-bought or homemade. There's no right answer here, but crafting a basket filled with goodies yourself will take a bit more time. Here's a peek at a few of our favorite Valentine's Day baskets on the market (more on those below!).
Our biggest tip to finding the perfect basket is to think about what your Valentine likes, such as their hobbies and pastimes. For instance, if he loves to fish, why not gift him a tackle box filled with lures and his favorite candies? Or if she's in desperate need of a spa day, consider getting her a basket filled with treats that bring the relaxation to her, like a bath bomb, gua sha, and a new candle.
Don't forget: Valentine's Day baskets aren't just for your lover! Grab one for the kids, your galentines, or anyone else you want to show a little extra love to on this special holiday. We've rounded up the best Valentine's Day baskets you can buy now for anyone and everyone who might be on your list this year.
