Valentine Sweetie Box - for your "sweet" heart!

jamtart6 · 13 February 2007 at 8:39PM

I pinched the idea from the retro sweet box idea, and made a box of all things valentiney. There was a post on here not so long ago to a website that made these type of boxes for £35, well mine worked out about £12 with various deals in shops!

The main components were the heart shaped marshmallows, jelly sweets and I love you Chocolates, but the rest to fill it up were love hearts, or things that were pink or red in colour to keep the theme such as malteasers.

I stuck a note inside "Happy Valentines Day to my 'Sweet' Heart" ....

Let me know what you think! Hopefully he will like it! :money:

That looks lovely, well done you

Wish i was your boyfriend, but i'm a girl so maybe not lol

I'm sure he'll be really pleased, and if you're anything like me you'll help him eat the contents too
