Like last year, the PCP is giving his teacher a little hot chocolate gift basket for a Valentine’s treat. It’s really easy and affordable to pull together and, let’s face it, who wouldn’t like to get a basket of hot chocolate with all the fixins?!?!
The red spoons, cups, napkins, marshmallows and basket are all from the Dollar Tree. To make the little hot chocolate stirring spoons, melt a handful of chocolate candy melts in the microwave. Spoon the melted chocolate into a zip top bag, snip one end and squirt into the spoons. Use a knife to level, dot with sprinkles and chill until hardened. Since I already had the candy melts, sprinkles and hot chocolate packets, the whole shebang cost me $6 for TWO baskets!
Last year’s basket was a little different, but equally as cheap and cute :-) We have a few spoons left to try ourselves, and I can’t think of a better snack on yet another rainy day! (Other than the chocolate raspberry cake pops at Starbucks, that is. Daddy-O bought them for the littles yesterday and I can’t seem to get the ONE bite the baby deigned to share off my mind…)

Very cute idea. Teachers must love to have your son in their class!

That is an adorable idea that I must steal! I'm buying my man a tiller for Valentine's Day and feeling like it's similar to a guy buying his wife a vacuum cleaner for a special occasion. LOL Was looking for something a bit more personal to give as well and BINGO, you just solved that issue. Will make another for my college age daughter who lives in her own apartment and tuck a bit of cash in there.
Very cute idea. Thanks for the thought. I've been so busy with Mardi Gras that Valentine's Day has snuck up on me!
What a cute idea! Love it.
This idea is simply adorable and thoughtful, too! I know I would love to receive this as a gift. The chocolate dipped spoons look yummy!
Blessings,
Leslie
I love this! Super fabulous! Have a lovely week & Happy Valentine's Day! Angie xo
That's really nice! I was at the dollar tree yesterday and purchased those same napkins in your basket!
Imagine the (Dixie) Delight I had when one of my students brought their version of this in for me today!! They found it on pinterest and I was the lucky recipient. I recognized it immediately as I adore your blog. I'm a Yankee by birth, but my mama was So-Southern and my heart and soul are Southern, too. Love your posts! Wishing you and yours a Happy Valentine's Day!
YAY Melissa!! I love that story!
