Last year for Valentine’s Day I did something fun that I forgot to post about. At a dollar store I saw a bag of those little capsules filled with soft expanding foam that grow larger in water, like these ones. Did you also love these growing up?
I took the foam out and typed up tiny little love notes that I rolled up inside each capsule. I then made a surprise ball from crepe paper (like the one below) and hid the capsules between layers for him to find and open up one by one.
Doing anything fun this Valentine’s day? Do share!
