Crafting for Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. I’m not a fan of the holiday, but I love to make homemade Valentine’s. I know, I’m strange like that. Crafting homemade Valentine’s are also a great way to save a little money too.

This year for both of the kiddos Valentine’s Day parties I am making bookmarks.

They were really inexpensive too. I only spent $.97 on the new heart shaped hole punch. I had everything else on hand.

I needed around 50 Valentine’s for the party, and my hand still hurts from all that punching. Dylan really liked the Valentine’s, I don’t think that Thade really cared for them though. He’s not really a fan of Valentine’s day either, so yeah, there you go.

I had fun crafting though, it was a great way to spend a chilly Winter morning.

I have really missed crafting… Lately I’ve been getting back into the habit. When the boys are in school and Agnes is napping, I’ve been working on little Christmas crafts.

I decorated a window in our dining room with little paper snowflakes. I thought this would be a quick project. I cut them all by hand, and it ended up taking me two hours to get them all done.

They do look pretty when dusk rolls around.
Today I started working on gift tags for Christmas presents, and for Dylan’s preschool presents. He needs 22 small-little-bitty Christmas gifts for their party, and I think I’m going to go with candy gifts. What preschooler doesn’t love M&M’s

The tags turned out super cute, and now I want to make Christmas cards too.

It was fun getting to craft again.
