{crafts} Valentine's week!

Yay, it's the week of Valentine's Day! It's one of my favorite fun-holidays. I can't help but be happy by all the sweet decorations and loveliness all around. Oh and lets not forget all the Conversation Hearts. {grin}

I've been crafting up a storm over here and wanted to share a few of the things this week that I have been making.

First up--felt garlands.

You guys know they are one of my favorite things to make. They are so easy and cheerful. You can't go wrong with either of those things, right?! Just grab some colorful felt by the yard {I found the aqua and pink at Hobby Lobby and the red at JoAnn's}, a pair of really great shears and your sewing machine. Cut out fun shapes, this time I cut out hearts and sew them all together. DONE!

I love making them so much, Cute and I made one for her to take to school for her "100 things" to share on the 100th day of school. She was able to help cut out a few, count them out, and help sew them together. It was really fun to work on a project together. They look so cheerful hanging on the bulletin board outside her classroom.


I also made one for the girlies door for when they wake up on Thursday.  I even got carried away and made a tiny one for their Barbies and animals. Yay!

Isn't Mr. Bearly so cute helping me?
