    Non-Candy Valentine Treats

    I love giving non-candy treats on Valentine’s Day since we already get lots and lots of candy and sweets from friends.

    I was brainstorming non-candy Valentine’s with my kiddos when I started thinking about REALLY expensive Valentine’s gifts. Shiny gifts that can come in tiny boxes. Tiny boxes in a certain blue hue, a patented shade of robin’s egg blue that was a custom commissioned from Pantone.

    I’m talking about Tiffany Blue, of course. It was named for that iconic jewelry store…. Tiffany & Co. Tiffany started using those beautiful little blue boxes in 1906. I love Tiffany boxes for their lovely color and the clean, timeless design.

    DIY Tiffany Style Gift Box

    Luckily, with a little colored paper and my free printable pattern, you can elevate small toys into priceless gems!

    The cute clamshell boxes hold a tiny, printable Valentine card and a tiny “precious” gift. The cards declare, “Valentine, You’re a Real Gem.” I’ve also included a set of free printable gift tags that you can tie onto the outside of the boxes.

    Personalize the boxes with your favorite color of cardstock and tie on a ribbon to make them even more special!

    Add a Ring
