We made this butterfly craft today and had a lovely time of it. So simple and rewarding to put together. How fun would it be to pass these out as Love Bug Valentines as well? Just write a little note on the back. You could even add a candy stick or smarties instead of the …
Milla has been dying to make Valentines with me for her classmates this year and we finally got to it this week. We pulled out the air dry craft clay and set work making clay hearts. We had cookie cutters in the shape of larger hearts but nothing just the size for a bracelet charm …
I love celebrating Valentines with toddlers/preschoolers. When we lived in Cali we used to take the boys to a little kids Valentines exchange where the little ones got to make valentines for their friends and pass them out. I’d love to do something like that with Miss M this weekend. Just maybe invite over about 4 …

My good friend Stephanie (who hosted my baby shower seen here) has this great Valentine’s get together every year just for the gals. Anyway, it’s super fun, filled with delightful people and A-mazing valentines (I still have intense cravings for a certain waffle cookie that was passed one year). A couple of years ago I …
We’ve been having so much fun with our Animal Envelopes that we couldn’t stop and just one or two! So we decided to take it even further and make a complete set of Animal Envelope Valentines! To make them we pretty much followed our original technique, only this time we used smaller envelopes and added a …
We had a lot of un the other afternoon making these little Animal envelopes. They would be so cute filled with candy hearts and a note for your favorite Valentine. I think we’ll use ours for a teacher Valentine. Get the full DIY over on Minted today!
