Today I’m sharing a fun DIY gift idea that’s easy to make and can customized to fit each of your friend’s style. And with Valentine’s Day just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to let your friends know they are loved. These DIY gift totes are loaded with tons of favorite finds—everything from nail polish to Strawberry Pocky. Because who wouldn’t love a fun acrylic tote like this?!

The best part is that after the items are used (and all the Pocky is gone in like 2 seconds) the totes can be reused for another purpose. They are great for displaying napkins and utensils at a dinner party or even storing paint brushes and craft paint.

Get a head start on Valentine’s Day gifting and watch the video below to learn the secret to creating the Valentine’s Day gift totes!

DIY Valentine’s Day Acrylic Totes

Supplies

download the valentines template
clear acrylic tote
paint pens in any color you like
tape

Directions

  1. Download and print the valentines template. Cut out each template along the outer dotted lines. Create two loops of tape and place them on the front side of one template. Place the template on the inside of the acrylic tote.
  2. Use paint pens to trace over the design. When done, remove the template and allow it to dry completely. Then flip it over and repeat the same thing on the other side.

The dotted vertical lines on each template indicates where to cut it if you’re tracing the design on the side with multiple compartments.
