Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and we’ve been busy as bees creating Valentine gifts for friends and family.
What sweeter gift to give than a little bit of honey?
It makes a perfect gift for a teacher or a dear friend.
If you would like to download the printable template I created click here. I printed mine out on smooth, white cardstock.
The card works for more than just honey:
My daughter is using them for her Valentine’s to give to her classmates. You can choose Bit-O-Honey or whatever candy tickles your fancy.
For Lily’s Valentines we are going to fill a small plastic sack with treats. Then we’ll fold a piece of cardstock over the opening.
Staple it down.
And glue on the tag.
This is the perfect project for my 8 year old, who loves anything crafty.
How cute! Thanks for sharing; I hope to use it this weekend for school gifting. If so, I’ll link to your post on my blog.
Adorable!! I love seeing something a little less traditional for Valentine’s!
Those are so sweet (pun intended)! I have a question for you….what kind of glue did you use for the card? Thanks.
It’s Martha Stewart Create Permanent Glue. It’s great for heavier gluing. It’ll ruin your day if you are gluing anything lighter than cardstock. For paper, she has a glue that is sort of a roll on (with a pad) which I also like. I picked them up at Walmart last year.
How sweet! Can’t think of a nicer Valentine treat then a Bit O Honey! I’ll be linking on Facebook. Thanks for sharing :)
How adorable and sweet! I love it!!
My boys are not giving valentines this year. They are ‘too old’ for that but this is a great idea for others. Love it. Thanks for sharing.
Ingenious. That is what I should be doing!
That is too cute!
This is just adorable! I am going to use this idea for my daughter’s teachers gifts and print a honey cookie recipe or something like that to attach as well. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the great idea! My daughters gave jars of honey with the card attached to their grandparents and great aunt and uncle. You have so many wonderful suggestions, please keep them coming!
What a great idea! Thanks for posting. Its not Vday anymore, but I think we’re going to modify it a bit and use the same idea for Easter!

Such a cute idea! Just shared on our Fun Finds Friday… http://kitchenfunwithmy3sons.blogspot.com/2012/02/fun-finds-friday_10.html
I saw this “Bee” Valentine printable and just had to copy it. I am the coordinator of an all volunteer, “Bee Kind Craft Group” – we hand craft items for Hospice Patients. I try to make little treats for the volunteers and plan on using this printable for their Valentine Treat. I am so glad I found it – it’s perfect!
Hi Calli,
I featured your “Bee Mine” today at Project Queen.
Love this!
adorables !… merci pour le partage…
