Little Miss Momma's Necklace

Aren't you just in love with this!!?  I am. 
Little Miss Momma made it using the above supplies. 
step1: cut out 5 felt circles 
step2: cut out 8 fabric circles for each felt circle. 
 step3: pinch the center of the fabric circles.
 step4: hot glue them to the felt circles.
step5: aren't they pretty!? 
step6: glue 3 flowers to a big piece of felt in a "u" formation. 
step7: get a chain and make it the right length for this necklace. 
step8: glue the chain to the 2 flowers left.
step9: add those flowers to the top of the "u" formation. 
step10: cut away the felt, so the edges are hidden beneath the flowers. 
step11: admire.
I just made one for myself using an old tshirt, an old chain, and some felt.  It took about an hour and I love it.  This idea is so darling!!  I can't wait to make more. :)
Visit {Little Miss Momma} for all the details.
ps- I'm totally in love with her shirt, too. :)

A Valentine's Night In

Here is a great last minute - or planned ;) - Valentine's Day idea from {Eat Drink Chic}
Either way, I love it!  How cute is this! 
Here is all you need in - the cutest little package - for a great night in. 
And this is something that would be so easy to just throw together.
The heart which you can {download here} says:

you, me, couch, kisses, take out,
blanket, snuggles, champagne,
movie, sugar, popcorn, love.

So sweet, huh!? 
Along with that, you include two sets of utensils which you can label using the above download,
two movie tickets {downloadable here},
a bag of candy that you label "sugar" also found in the download. 
And of course, a love note which she rolled up and stuck in a little tube labeled "open me on february 14th".  Super cute!   Put it all in a popcorn bucket or cute bag along with a bunch of confetti and sparkles, and you have it!  You could also throw in a bag of popcorn, and it would also be fun to put it all in a basket along with some champagne or sparkling cider with some glasses to drink it in...flowers...
Possibilities are endless.  I just love the whole idea of dressing up a night in.  It really makes it feel a lot more special!
Happy Valentines Day!

Chocolate Love Notes

Here's a cute idea from {The Mother Huddle}
She made the bag and cut strips of paper which she wrote love notes for her husband on.  Then, wrapped them around chocolates.  Easy, and meaningful.

Heart Treats

What a cute little Valentine's Day treat!
I'm trying to decide if they're brownies or cookies or cake.  I'm pretty sure they were made in those little silicone heart shaped baking sheets.  Love it!

Quick and Easy Valentine Ideas

Love this idea from {Poppies at Play}! 
How easy is this!  Stick pretzel sticks into gummy hearts. 
And for the feather end of the arrow, cut a heard down the middle and stick it on backwards. 
Super fun, and super easy!

Here's another one from {Crafting Chicks}


Aren't those hilarious!?  Pretty simple stuff.  Just glue googly eyes onto pictures.  They all say "Valentine, I've got my eyes on you!"  So funny!!  I just love this idea!

All You Need Is Love

This is a cute little Valentine set-up. 
Cute and simple.  Like the "Love You" made out of scrabble letters. 
And this simple heart is really cute, too. 
But my favorite part is this sign.  Looks so easy to make, but ends up being SO STINKIN CUTE!  I love it. Visit {320 Sycamore} for more details. :)

I really love this idea from {Twig and Thistle}
The little stickers say: "Orange you glad You're my Valentine!" 
"We make the Perfect Pear!" 
"I'm going Bananas over You!" 
and "You're the Apple of my eye!"
Cute, easy, and healthy.

Meaningful Valentine

This is what I gave my to my Husband for Valentine's Day last year.
It may not look like much, but it is definitely one of those gifts that keeps on giving.
Inside this simple little box are 365 things I love about him. 
One for every day of the year. 
I just printed them off, then cut them up into little strips.
Then, got this simple wooden box to keep them in.
It sits on our dresser just waiting to be opened. 
And it gets opened all the time.

Tissue Rosette Heart Wreath

Have you had enough of these tissue rosettes yet? :)
Here's another cute idea using that tissue paper rose idea.
See that cardboard heart in the background?  She just cut one out of a cereal box.
Then, glued all these roses to it.
And attached a ribbon to hang it from.
So cute, right?!
Visit {AliLilly} for the details.
Another great idea from {AliLilly}
Same idea, just fill the interior of the heart instead of making it a wreath.
Very cute.
