Easy Valentine’s Day Surprise
We adore our spouses and think highly of them… you might even say we “kiss the ground they walk on!” They are THAT great! We’ve thought of a romantic Valentine’s idea based on that saying that is SO easy and SO cute! Whether you’ve put off your Valentine’s day planning and are scrambling for ideas, or you just need something simple and low prep for your busy schedule, read on to put together a Valentine’s Day surprise trail of kisses. Also, this idea includes chocolate, so you’re sold, right??!

Valentine’s Day will be here before you know it and if you are anything like the majority out there, you have procrastinated in figuring out something cute to do for your sweetheart! Don’t you worry! The Dating Divas have got your back!
Ready for the easiest Valentine’s Day surprise EVER?
Materials Needed:
- A bag of Hershey’s Hugs
- A bag of Hershey’s Kisses
- Ribbon
- A Clear Baggie
- Rose Petals
- “I’ve Kissed The Ground…” FREE Printable (at the end of this post—brought to you by the AMAZING Carisa from Messes to Memories!)
Setting Up Your Valentine’s Day Surprise:
This Valentine’s Day surprise will literally take you less than 15 minutes to prep! Place the Hershey’s Hugs in a bag, tie a ribbon around it, & hang it on the door your other half will walk through when they get home.
Sprinkle a trail of rose petals AND Hersey’s Kisses along the ground leading to whatever destination you have in mind.
SOME IDEAS…
It could lead to your bedroom door. {Hint, Hint..} It could lead to the Master Bath where you would have a relaxing bubble bath waiting. It could lead to the kitchen where you would have a yummy dinner or present waiting. It’s completely up to you what you would like it to lead to! Ahem… it could lead to YOU!
And peeps – fake rose petals are the BEST! They are reusable, look realistic enough to set the mood, and they don’t wilt! Perfect combo and great investment! I grabbed mine at Michael’s Arts & Crafts for $10. If you aren’t near a craft store, you may have time to order some! Amazon sells a huge pack of Rose Petals for only $11.99! This is a must-have for setting a romantic mood!
Wherever you have the trail of roses & kisses ending you would place this cute card which ties everything together!
Want a closer look? Here you go…
Adorable, huh?! If you’re anything like me, you probably want to PIN these pictures so you can use them to help you set up your own sweet surprise. You could also punch two holes in it, tie a ribbon on, and hang it on a door. If you don’t have ribbon, then just tape it on whatever door your spouse will open. Or you could prop it up against a Valentine’s gift you are giving your sweetie. Easy-peasy!
Another flirty idea would be to set it next to some lipstick with this card saying “I’ve kissed the ground you walk on, now I need to kiss the rest of you!”
We created 4 different cards for you to choose from based on whatever design or saying you prefer! We also made some printable kiss marks and some XOXOs which you can use to embellish your kiss trail!
Happy Valentine’s Day!!
The idea of making a trail of rose petals is common but adding kisses chocolates is unique plus I love the printable. It’s so cute. I love this!
Thank you so much Cassie! So glad you liked the idea. Happy Valentine’s Day! XO
So cute! great idea!
OK! This is so cute and thoughtful but easy, right up my alley!!
I love how SIMPLE but totally sweet this is!
So cute! This will be perfect for our Stay at Home Valentine’s Date this year!
What a simple and fun idea!
I really, really enjoy this idea!
YAY! So glad! XO
You can put like a bag of rose petals on top of the door and make it work so that when the person comes in, they will be showered with rose petals. 🙂 Just a thought…
Oh GOSH! What a cute idea, Diana!!!! I Love it! XO
Thank you!! Oh my how much I LOVE this site!!!!
Love the printable and ideas! Thanks for linking up with me for Friday Favorites. I’m featuring you this week!
I was just going to say, hit the dollar store, grab a couple bunches of silk roses, and start cutting all the pedals off for your stock of rose pedals…. the more spendy ones often only come in one color. For a couple bucks you can get basically a lifetime supply (keep them in a ziplock bag in the lingerie drawer) of red, white and pink, or whatever combo you want! Much more cost effective than a craft store, or online 🙂
Thanks! I shared this info on my blog and linked back 🙂
Every idea is cuter than the last- told alot of my friends about you-this is your ministry what a gift you are encouraging marriages you bless me so much- please friend me on face book jm monroe
This is a much cuter execution than what I did for my then sweetie and now hubby. I was a broke college student and I kissed the ground he walked on and left a gift before I left to go back to school. I may have to break this back out.
Hi,
I just wanted to let you know that this post was featured in my 2012 Valentine’s Day Guide! Seen here: https://www.singingthroughtherain.net/2012/01/2012-valentines-day-guide.html

I am definitely going to do this. This is a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
I love this!!! You girls always come through for me when I need a little or a LOT of guidance for ideas and date nights! Thanks!
I found some beautiful rose petals at Michaels this year in the wedding section. They have petals made of several materials mixed in the same box, shimmery transparent and silky. But what really made for beautiful petals was when I cut up Poinsetta flowers that were on DEEP discounts at the craft store. Michaels has big grab bags of Christmas flowers now for $2, I saw them last week. I just separated out the layers of flowers and then cut off each petal. The poinsettas were velvety and they added another depth to the rose petals. I love them and definitely am keeping these around! I took pics of the petals at our romantic getaway. I could share them with you if you want, since you are so generous to us. 🙂
Carina-We wanna see!! Send them snapshots to sassysuggestions@thedatingdivas.com
I wish I were this creative,…but that’s why I reference you lovely ladies!
Thanks a bunch, Kim! xoxo
That is an adorable idea! I don’t know if I could “kiss the ground”… the dog might gooble them up before hubs got a chance to see them!
LOL….Jill, too funny you said that! We have a little Yorkie that I had to keep shoo-ing away from it. 🙂
Just a tip… I found fake rose petals at the Dollar Tree today… 300 petals for $1!
Awesome! Gotta love a great deal like that! 🙂
OMG, Tara!! I LOVE this idea! So dang cute!! And the printable…oh, that is just awesome. Thanks for sharing this with all of us! I’m setting my printer to print it out…right…now.
Love it! Thank you! I got my rose petals at Wal-mart in the wedding section. I got them a year ago so who knows if they still sell them. But it’s a good place to look!
Good call, Sierra! Thanks for the tip! xoxo
I love this simple and sweet idea! Totally doing it! Thanks for sharing! (-:
You are SO welcome, Jen! xoxo
I like the idea and would love it if my husband did this for me, but he would not appreciate as much as I would.
GIRL! Leave him hints! Open up this post & gush over it when the hubby is around. Point Blank, say, “I would LOVE it if you got on this website & did one of these cute ideas for me for Valentine’s Day!” Men oftentimes need to be told what you are wanting….hints don’t always work. 🙂
LOVE it Tara! Thanks for doing the planning for me!
You are SO welcome, Wendy! xoxo
This is so cute and so simple! I love it!
Awwww….thanks, Amberly! 🙂
I love this idea! !! My hubby and I are moving , just he and I !!!! He works overnight, This is agreat way to welcome him home.
