Is this too much for my boyfriend as a Valentine’s Day gift?

Love & Dating

Hello everyone, so this all is what I’m planning for my boyfriend for Valentine’s Day, though I am afraid to be super extra since I planned a lot of things. He had gifted me Sony headphones for New Year which shocked me because I have mentioned Ive been wanting them one or two times at most. So it got me really emotional, because of this I wanted to make a really emotional present for Valentine’s Day.

Im planning on a gift basket since Ive been seeing them on social media and loving them.

For this gift basket, first; I will buy four books, Japanese classics to specify, since we have been loving reading them recently. I'll gather the four together and tie them with a string, then make a bow with the string. I will make a card and I will write some songs we both love and there will be a QR on the paper which’ll lead to an unlisted youtube playlist of me covering those songs. (I have been singing and taking lessons for a long time and he has stated he loves my singing, a lot of times). Of course, a sweet note in an envelope I decorated myself. Also, he has been using the same backpack for college for a long time, so I’ll buy him a blue Converse backpack and decorate it with a plush keychain and charm.(He loves cute things) Lastly, some marshmallows and chocolates. I’m also considering putting a few polaroids of our selfies.

After writing all of these and reading them, I’m scared of him thinking I’m being extra. Please tell me if I should reduce the gifts or they are okay. Thank you for all your answers in advance, and let me know if you take any inspiration from this idea :))
