DIY Candy Goodie Bag for Valentine’s Day!
Valentine’s Day is round the corner and it’s time to get busy with our kids doing some amazing craft activities for this special day of love and friendship.
Chocolate and candies are something you can’t avoid, but this time, skip the boring box of candy and go for these cute little goodie bags where you can replace candies with the gift of your choice. This idea for goodies is simply great for a treat bag or as small stand-alone gifts. And if you are not into Valentine’s Day, you could use this as a cute return favor bag for the next birthday party!
