Gumballs on the brain!

It all started when I saw these cute gumball necklaces...image from http://onecharmingparty.com
Then I got an idea for gumball machine Valentines to make my kids to take to school this year(I hope to share them soon...if they turn out...and I can find gumballs!).I did some searching on the web to seeif my idea had already been done.I didn't see it, so maybe not?But...I did find this super cute idea for"The Ultimate Handmade Gumball Machine".It would make such a wonderful Teacher's giftfor Valentine's Day or any time!

I also noticed, while searching for gumball Valentine's Day ideas,that most of the gum themed messages said~I "chews" you!~(just like in the picture above)So cute!
