Whether you love or loathe it, Valentine’s Day is on the horizon. If you’ve yet to pick up a gift for your loved one, or you’ve run out of inspiration, we’re here to help. While fresh flowers make a great gift, they’ll only be around for a few weeks (if you’re lucky), but a boquet made from Lego will last a whole lot longer.
For around the same price as a fresh boquet from the florist, you can get a Lego set shaped like a dozen red roses. Building the 822-piece set is all part of the fun, with the end result culminating in roses in different stages of bloom, along with white baby’s breath flowers, making this a lovely keepsake for your partner, family or friends.
Not a fan of roses? From orchids and succulents to bouquets and bonsai trees, Lego’s collection of botanical-themed sets is always growing. Better still, most of them can be picked up at a bargain price right now and you can pick between everything from wonderful wildflowers to choose cherry blossoms.
