Anni Sofferet
You love him to bits and you want him to know it, and with these cute Valentine's day gift ideas for your boyfriend he'll have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to. It's not about money, and it's not about copying other people. These cute Valentine's day gift ideas for your boyfriend are all about the two of you-which means, unique and personalized!

#1. Boyfriend Cookie

They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Well, get into the kitchen to bake your cute Valentine's day gift for your boyfriend. Use this super-easy cookie-recipe, and shape the dough into a big, 2 inch thick heart. Write your names on the heart with mini M&M's, then bake the cookie for 10 minutes longer than the recipe says (cause it's so big). Complete this cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend by placing the cookie between the hands of a giant M&M candy holder (found in pharmacies and supermarkets).

#2. Boyfriend Ornament

On an extra-large Christmas ornament write your boyfriend's name and yours with "together forever" using pink nail polish. Place it at the center of a heart shaped basket, and fill the rest of the basket with Valentine treats. To give this cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend a little more magic, layer the basket with pink paper and add sprinkles, hearts and other Valentine's decorations from Party City.

#3. Boyfriend Bear Hug

Make a cuddly cute Valentine's day gift for your boyfriend by dressing a bear the way your boyfriend dresses. Either look for a bear that's already wearing jeans and a white T-shirt, or cut up an old pair of jeans and a T-shirt and glue them over the bear like clothes. Next, put red lipstick on your lips and kiss the bear's T-shirt all over, making sure you keep refreshing your lipstick so your kiss marks will be beautiful. Put the finishing magic to this cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend by sticking a Valentine's day card between the bear's paws and write: "Love you beary, beary much".

#4. Boyfriend Matching Shirts

What could be more cute and romantic than matching homemade T-shirts for you and your boyfriend? At a craft store buy two T-shirts and red or pink duct tape. Make a large heart from duct tape in the middle of each shirt. Then personalize this cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend by adding an arrow and writing your names in duct tape.

#5. Boyfriend Love Boat

Cut a large rectangle of Valentine's day wrapping paper and fold it in half so both sides will look beautiful. Now fold a simple paper boat and fill it with Valentine candy. Next, personalize this cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend by cutting a picture of you and him and placing your tiny selves inside the boat.

#6. Boyfriend Sexy Lingerie

You don't have to spend a fortune on sexy lingerie to turn yourself into a cute Valentine's day gift for your boyfriend. Take a cheap pair of underwear and a bra and coat their outside with shiny red duct tape (or pink, if you prefer). The two will look super sexy and if you add a few cute stickers here and there (like hearts or bears), your cute Valentine's day gift for your boyfriend will be irresistible.

#7. Boyfriend Pickup

This is a really cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend, especially if you fill it with Hersey kisses in all sorts of colors. At a toy store look for a toy pickup truck. If the truck looks cute already, leave it as is; otherwise, spray paint it in pink. Then fill the truck bed with the Hersey kisses and add a greeting card that says: "A truckload of kisses from me to you."

#8. Boyfriend Love Letter

Write your boyfriend a love-poem or love letter and print it out on pink paper. Then crumple the paper and dip it in strong tea for 30 seconds (this will age the color and texture of the paper). Very carefully smooth out the paper and let it dry. Finally, to give this cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend a really ancient feel, use a candle over a sink to burn the edges of the paper all around. Keep the water running so you can put out the fire in a second. Again, let the paper dry, then roll it up and tie it with a pink ribbon. And to make this cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend completely irresistible, stick it between the paws of a pink stuffed animal.

#9. Boyfriend Candle

This cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend is truly artistic. You'll need to get a copy of the drawing "Bond of Union" by M. C. Escher. Cut out the intertwined heads and glue them over a glass vase with candles inside. See the pictures and instructions for making this cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend. (Or see how to turn this drawing into a stunning 3-dimensional art piece that's made of paper but looks like a sculpture--here are the instructions for how to make the intertwined lovers.)

#10. Boyfriend Music CD

Make a cute Valentine's day gift for your boyfriend that he'll never forget. Burn a CD with all his and your favorite songs, then buy empty CD labels and print a picture of the two of you kissing for the CD and for the cover. Finish off this cute Valentine's day gift idea for your boyfriend by sealing the CD case all around with red kisses or hearts stickers.
