Give a sweet gift for Valentine's Day

Follow these easy how-tos for a present that comes from the heart.

You'll need:

Adhesive paper
Heart-shaped paper punch
Glass mug
Paintbrush
Etching cream
Cellophane bag
Candies of your choice
Ribbons
Hole punch
Pink construction paper

1. Cut a 2" square of adhesive paper, then punch a heart-shaped hole in it to create a stencil.

2. Remove adhesive-paper backing and position the stencil on the mug. Press firmly.

3. Dip paintbrush into a jar of etching cream and dab cream on the exposed heart-shaped space on the mug. Let dry for 5 to 10 minutes, then wash thoroughly.

4. Place the empty cellophane bag in the mug and fill with candy. Tie the bag closed with a ribbon. To make a gift tag for the mug, cut a heart out of pink construction paper using the paper punch. Punch a small hole in the heart and thread a ribbon through. Write your greeting to the recipient and tie the heart to the mug's handle.
