I am a sucker for funny play-on-words Valentine’s Day Gifts. Simply saying, “Happy Valentine’s Day” doesn’t cut it for this writer. I created a Hot Tamales Valentine’s Day gift idea made with a mason jar, ribbon, and straw! It is easy, simple, and delicious for the loved ones in your life.
Hot Tamales Valentine’s Day Gift Idea Instructions
Simply buy Hot Tamales at your local grocery store or online if you please.
Fill a mason jar with the candy, hot glue a cute ribbon to the lid, and add a few embellishments.
I purchased the paper straw on sale from Target in the party aisle and attached a chalkboard heart with a cute clothespin. I found the chalkboard heart and clothespin at Michael’s. Using a chalkboard marker I wrote, “You are one hot tamale.”
I then, turned around and hand delivered this to my husband (two months early since it was for the blog…)
He said, “Thank you, but isn’t this too early?”
I replied, “Perks of being married to a blogger!”
Shouldn’t it be Valentine’s Day everyday anyways? I don’t know many people that don’t love a clever and cute way to celebrate the holiday with a tasty twist.
