Did you have a wonderful day?
I love holidays. I love to decorate, craft, bake and create with the kids. There was no shortage of any of that this year. We worked on all kinds of projects.
Our new valentine banner. I have fallen for banners. I have several more planned for upcoming holidays and celebrations!
flowers from Lanee's birthday.
Marshmallows dipped in chocolate and decorated with heart sprinkles. I found the idea on one of my favorite blogs. http://littlebirdiesecrets.blogspot.com/2009/02/valentine-treats-for-your-sweets.html I made a TON of them using the chocolate melt discs that can be found at most craft stores. We sent some to the kids at Applewood as well as Koley's teacher. Kole was so excited when he called. He said the kids loved them. We also made them for all of Lane's valentines for her class party (it's pictured below) and as a gift to her teacher. I used inexpensive tin pails and put flower foam in the bottom and shredded paper to hide the foam. They were super simple to make and the possibilites are endless. The discs come in all sorts of colors. You could also use nuts or crushed candies.
Lane and I worked on a valentine wreath using a foam base and fabric scraps. She completed almost all of it on her own!
Lane's valentine. I used my fabtabulous Cricut to cut the cards but she stamped the owls. She is all about her owls, just like Janny.
"whoa-whoa" wubzy book for abbie from cupid!
Chocolate dipped Oreos for pa-pa!
Chocolate covered strawberries for Sean. I love using the piping bag!
