** Before you make these please be clear with your kids what these are we aren't trying to give the wrong message, just a quirky idea for the older crowd. I wouldn't do this for little ones**
Stuff you'll need:
Step one: Get your bottles. We went to our local pharmacy and asked for some prescription bottles. They gave them to us no charge. I don't know if that would be the case just anywhere but they can't be to spendy if they do charge.
Step Three: Labels, you can either print them on your computer or hand write them. (you can copy and paste our message or make your own, they should be about 1" x 2".
Step Four: Tape your labels on, the easiest way we found was to pull out about a 2 1/2" section of tape and lay it face down (not sticky side) on a flat surface. Then lay your label onto the tape facedown. So when you pick it up you can see your label. Attach to the bottle. Hint: it's easiest if you have one person hold the bottle and the other adhere the label to get it straight.
Step Five: Decorate your lids. Get your modpodge or glue out and paint the tops of your lids. After you have a good coat of glue on the lid sprinkle your glitter over the top. (Do this over the garbage can or sink to avoid a big mess) Let them dry.
Stuff you'll need:
- bag of conversation hearts
- rx bottles
- packing tape (about 2" wide)
- glitter
- mod podge
- old paint brush
- spray paint (your choice of color/s)
- paper to make labels on (either on the computer or by hand)
Step one: Get your bottles. We went to our local pharmacy and asked for some prescription bottles. They gave them to us no charge. I don't know if that would be the case just anywhere but they can't be to spendy if they do charge.
Step Two: Spray paint your lids any color you want, make sure you let them dry well before you begin crafting with them.
It would take a whole lot of sweethearts to mend my broken heart if you weren't my Valentine RX: #LOVE Take 2 sweethearts every minute as prescribed by Dr. Cupid |

Step Six: Fill your bottles up with their prescriptions (sweethearts) And you have yourself a super easy valentines day gift for your friends! Overall this was a very inexpensive idea we paid .99 for the sweethearts and that's all we had to buy! If your a crafter chances are you have all that other stuff hangin around!
