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!

I was inspired to create these after viewing bright candy 

while walking around the old town of St. Augustine in FL, 

I was inspired by the colorful and bright swirls that decorated the candies 
with rich hues that interchanged from dark to light as if forming a jewel.

Every time I make these beautiful magnets, I can't help but admire them. 

The glass is hand poured, they are round and vary in thickness. 

I fell in love with these magnets when I made my first set. 

They are just beautiful and they are unique in every way.

I use mine to hold several papers at a time including photos and cards.

I also wanted to remind you that we have these Letter Glass Push Pins available here.

They will be the last push pins for now and I won't make any more until after the summer.
Hope to see you at The Shop and wish you a Happy Weekend!

Ever thought of using the color pink in your home? I know, I know,
who would've thought?  But take a look at these inspirational ideas,
they look pretty don't they?  Why not brighten up a space this winter
with unexpected touches of pink.  Have you ever thought of bringing in a little
feminine color to your space?  Perhaps not, but take a look at these inspiring
spaces with just a touch of blush.

I was organizing my closet and came across several pink items for 

the home that were given to me by my Mother-in-Law over the last few years.
They are mostly linen and towels, but bright and beautiful pillows, lamps,
window treatments or candle holders can bring dramatic flair to a ho-hum
bedroom or living room.

How about paint?  You don't have to re paint an entire room to enjoy
the benefits of bright colors.  Choose one or two smaller pieces of furniture--
bookcases, end tables, cabinets or even a door--and give them an instant
makeover with a coat of your choice of shade of pink paint.

And don't forget the power of table settings.  Perfect for the upcoming
Valentine Holiday, have your guests warm up to the pink tones by dressing
your table with pink and also serving some yummy pink treats.
