valentine owls









If you know me at all, you know I am a pottery barn FREAK! I LOVE everything they offer and would have it all! Alas, I can't as it is so freakin' expensive! I saw these darling little owls http://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/vd400/index.cfm?pkey=cvalentines%2Dday%7Ck on the back of the catalog, ripped it out and was on a mission! I had to have four but at $19 each I could'nt pull it off. I visited my favorite Joann Fabrics and purchased some super simple supplies and created all 4 for under $9.00. I love to be inspired by something, create it and make it my own. The button eyes are all different colors and the boys names are stiched with brown and the girls pink.

They are tied on the back of the kids chairs and "cupid" bring surprises and treats every so often.
