Valentines Day Basket Ideas from Dollar Tree

Jamie here! I stopped at Dollar Tree last night and spotted these cute little boxes for just $1.25! (There are OODLES of other cute Valentine Finds at Dollar Tree) They're like little caboodles and the clear lids are covered in sparkles. These would be great for keeping little girl makeup, or Barbie clothes, or costume jewelery etc… OR make it into a Valentine Basket (or save it for an Easter Basket)

I grabbed a few items that would make cute Valentine gifts to give you an idea – there's a confetti-handled makeup brush, a ceramic heart jewelry box, cute Valentine socks, a Spa Headband and Sour Patch hearts. If you bought everything including the box it would only cost you $7.50 – Valentine's Gift DONE!

Here are some more Valentine ideas you can grab at Dollar Tree:

With Valentine's Day drawing near, we thought it would be fun to show how you can take these heart-shaped baskets we found at the Dollar Tree & turn them into a cute Valentine's Day gift basket for the kids!(See all our Dollar Tree Valentines finds here!)

Also, make sure to check out our Valentine's Day Scavenger Hunt for Kids to see how to turn a Dollar Tree Valentine's Day Basket into the final prize of a treasure hunt. (So cute to do with the little ones at home this year!) You could also do this cute Valentine Hearts on Door idea to tell your kids what you love about them.

Even though Dollar Tree has raised prices and introduced Dollar Tree Plus, this is still such a budget saver!
