Supplies You’ll Need to Recreate This Gift (links in bold underline):
- Clear ornament – this is the size I used since I had a mini gift card. If using a normal full size gift card, you’ll need to size up to these larger clear ornaments.
- Gua Sha Tool: these are popping up all over teen social media or Youtube feeds. A trendy skincare accessory and we know teens and tweens are all about skincare right now.
- Mini Lip Balms: these Burt’s Bees mini lip balms are the cutest mini size and also trending with tweens.
- Chocolate because: Valentine’s Day, enough said!
- Starbucks Gift Card: my teen is hooked on their refreshers right now. IMPORTANT: if you can’t find the mini heart shaped gift card and want to include a regular sized gift card, you’ll need to size up to this size clear ornament.
- Bow Straw Topper: Bows and coquette aesthetic are trending. Straw toppers are a fun and functional way to add style to drink tumblers.
- Mini Valentine Tic Tacs: There is something about minis that are so much more appealing than the regular size. These are in all the mini bags on social media right now.
- Heart-Shaped Powder Puff Makeup Blenders: Perfect for makeup application, these are both cute and practical. I found mine at TJMaxx but here is a similar set on Amazon.
- Adhesive Tape
- Bakers twine or twist ties to tie up each end of your candy shaped gift
- Or alternative to the gold ribbon would be mini bows these mini bows are so cute. If you use these, you’ll need hot glue or another adhesive to attach the bows. This is the gifts using the mini bows instead of gold ribbon:
