Our Valentines

Zoey really enjoys making Valentines for her classmates. Starting around mid-January, she starts talking about it. I am not very creative, so I just go searching around the internet (thank goodness for all the craftiness out there!). One snow day, I remembered what Susie did with her girls last year! I showed it to Zoey and she instantly decided it was what she wanted for this year! Yay for the tutorial, thanks Susie:)

It was the perfect thing to keep us occupied during our many ice days, too!

Max also wanted to do the same thing, so it worked out well. And I love how they turned out! Super cute candy boxes:







here are Zoey's. She really did a large part of it all by herself. I love the little hearts in the ribbon.


I was asking Max if he just wanted me to buy Spongebob Valentines but he wanted something puppy related. And then he decided on the boxes, so we found his cute puppy-heart print ribbon for him. Maybe we are turning over a new leaf with him and crafts (okay, not really...) but he did put his name on every one without complaint and woke up early one morning telling me he really needed to get to work on his Valentines!
