Valentine’s Craft Glass Block Gifts and Decor You’ll Love. According to the National Retail Federation survey, more than half of American adults plan to celebrate Valentine’s Day this year, and nearly 75% of consumers celebrating the big day think it’s more important to do so this year because of the pandemic. Total spending is predicted to reach $21.8B on gifts for significant others, family, friends, children’s teachers, and even pets.
Due to COVID-19, the fewest number of sweethearts are planning an evening out this year – only 24% of those surveyed said they may consider having a Valentine’s date night. We think that’s in warmer states where outdoor dining is still possible this time of year. 41% of survey respondents said they’ll opt for a special dinner and evening at home.

DIY Valentine’s Day Gifts Using Glass Block
DIY Valentine’s Day gifts are great options when children want to get crafty to make a gift for Mom. For little ones who want to create their own masterpiece, help them out by starting with our Craft Glass Block line.
These clear and hollow blocks have a hollow inside and hole at the top, allowing you to fill them with goodies for Mom, Dad, or even a favorite teacher. Popular options include Hershey’s Kisses, heart shape candies, M&M’s, flower petals (artificial), confetti, paper glitter, and more. Tying a ribbon around it or making a bow is also fun.
Decorate the outside of the block if you wish, using paint suitable for glass (acrylic enamel or acrylics marked as suitable for glass). Keep in mind paint may take up to 24 hours to dry. You can also use craft vinyl or stickers. There are a ton of ideas and tutorials you can find online to help you achieve the look you want. The team here at Quality Glass Block is also only a phone call away.
Consider getting more glass block for crafts than you need for this holiday. Once you get started crafting with glass, you’ll be hooked, and want to try something new.
Glass Block Vases
Glass block vases are another option if you’re looking to create unique Valentine’s Day gifts. Fill it with real flowers or flowers the kids made. Another option is to fill it with beads, candy, or even homemade Valentine’s or paper hearts. New this year is the taller vase. You could use the square block as a vase as well. They’re watertight, so it is perfectly acceptable to put water in if you have fresh flowers.
If you want more than a clear vase, you can decorate it, or we can customize it for you with color or Vector images.
