If the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, then a virtual cooking class has to be one of the best gifts for him. Work together on making a delicious meal, learn some new skills in the kitchen, and have fun doing it. Even beginners can learn to cook online with ease.

3. Let your love flourish with an online terrarium workshop

Know a nature lover? Bring the outside in with a terrarium kit and class. If your green-thumbed man loves his plant babies, then he will also love learning how to make a terrarium this Valentine’s Day. These mini gardens are easy to look after and add a nice pop of colour to your home.

Building a terrarium is easy when you have a DIY kit. It is full of the best terrarium plants, so you don’t need to worry about doing a load of research. He will get lots of tips from his online class so he can just relax and have fun putting the plants together.

This is the perfect gift for men who are big tea or coffee drinkers. Learn how to make the perfect mug for him using an online pottery class and DIY kit. You can add his initials, paint on his favourite character, or add an inside joke. It’s something he can use every day and is a constant reminder of your love.

If he’s not one for hot drinks, use your pottery starter kit to make him something else. Turn the clay into anything from vases to bowls, plant pots and more. It’s more personal than mass-produced home items and is really fun to make.

It’s a really special homemade Valentine's gift for him that he will cherish forever.

6. Try soap making with all natural ingredients

Homemade soap is perfect for men with sensitive skin or particular requests. If he struggles with store-bought soap, make him his own using a soap making kit and live online class. 

It can be lovingly customised by you to fit his needs and likes. Add in essential oils for some relaxing aromatherapy. Lavender can help with his sleep and headaches, while peppermint or rosemary is great for making him feel more energised. Your soap making teacher will advise you on the best oils and how to use them, as well as teaching you exactly how to make soap.

When you make soap at home, you can ensure it has all natural ingredients that won’t cause reactions. Your handcrafted organic soap is a meaningful gift for him that shows how much you care. 

Whether it’s an experience gift or a handmade gift, we hope this list has helped you find the best gift for him this Valentine's Day.
