Valentine Boxes | inchmark
These are so sweet. Once your child makes them, you can put jellybellies or some other sweet in them
You can find little packs of matchboxes at the grocery store. Cut a piece of paper 2" high (or the height of your matchbox) and about 4" long to wrap all the way around. I used a bit of tape to secure it on the back.
