First, print a design on the pot using a cut kitchen sponge
and acrylic paints. Heart shapes are the easiest to cut
from sponge. Allow to dry. Place potting soil, seeds and
planting instructions into the pot and wrap the
whole thing in a ribbon.
Variation:
Make a paper heart with a message.
Attach it to a florist stick and place into the pot as well.
