We are counting down the days until Valentine’s Day is here! This is always a fun holiday for us. My husband is an amazing guy and always out-does himself. We do cute little crafts for the kids to take to all of their friends at school and try to have some special family time too. If you’re still trying to decide what to get someone special, how about these DIY Heart Bath Bombs! You can do them in any color you choose, we just went with blue. You do need to give them some time to firm up, so just be sure to plan ahead.

I did not add in the time it takes these DIY Heart Bath Bombs to harden under the prep time because I didn’t want anyone to fall out of their chair if they saw 36 hours on there!
