Dabbling on Valentine's Gifts & Crayon Hearts

What's all this you say?  This is what I have been working on for Valentine's Day.
I have not decorated my home for Valentine's Day except with a couple of prints
and a handmade garland.  I'm not much of a decorator outside of Christmas,
but for my son's sake,we'll craft something together that reminds us of the upcoming
holiday, in this case Valentine's Day.

I have also been restocking my little shop with new magnets in blue and green colors.
Perhaps you may want to drop by and check it out for gift giving.
With Valentine's Day, Birthdays and Easter approaching you may want to get some before
they are gone.  Remember, I will not be making any push pins until possibly the summer.
 

We have also prepared little gifts for his classmates and teacher.  This year his teacher
is getting this "Love is Patient Printable" and perhaps magnets to go along with it.
His classmates will receive homemade heart shaped crayons and other little treats.
Below are some photos of the Heart Shaped Crayons we made.

1. My son chose to make them in different colors.
2. We took off the crayons wrappers.
3. Placed the crayons inside the silicone heart mold & let it melt in
the oven at 325 degrees for about 13 minutes or so.
4. After they melted, we placed them in the refrigerator to cool
and they were harden in minutes, they were easy to pop out with
the silicone mold.  You should try it!

The kids will love these along with small toys and heart shaped lollipops.

Hope that you enjoy!

Heart Shaped Waffles

 

I love waffles and so does my family.  Unfortunately, I don't own a waffle maker.

It would be such a delight to have one and make homemade fluffy goodness for all to 

enjoy.  Have you seen this Heart Shaped Waffle Maker?  I love the idea of a waffle 

on a stick.  Do you own a particular kind of Heart Waffle Maker?  Do you like it? 

I'm just wondering if maybe I should get one or stick to cookie cutters.

I'm preparing for Valentine's Day, by starting off the day with golden goodness.

Imagine the faces of your loved ones, when they step into the dining area and

laid out before them are these delicious, heart shaped waffles.

I remember last year when I surprised them with the pancakes and they were thrilled.

It's so much fun bringing a theme to a meal and sharing it with the family.

The way that I made these waffles, was super easy, the kids can make these 

themselves.  All you need are frozen waffles sold in the breakfast frozen section 

of your grocery store and a Heart Shaped Cookie Cutter.

Didn't I say easy?  Surprise your loved ones with a loving breakfast or 

just have fun with the kiddos with the cookie cutter.  The ideas are endless, 

make your kids heart shaped toast or sandwiches shaped in a heart and 

stick a note with it; from mom with love.  Visit this post for more ideas.

They'll enjoy it!
