January is not my fav. It's cold and dark outside, and all I think about is staying indoors. BUT, looking on the brighter side...it can also be the perfect month to craft! So naturally, expect lots of DIY and creative projects this month here on the blog. You're so welcome! 😁
Today I'm bringing you an oldie but goodie - Gnomes! But all dressed up for the occasion in Valentine's Day colors and bringing gifts within! And, these are no ordinary little gnomes. Oh, gnome! 😁 They are in fact, little Valentine's Day gnome favor or gift boxes that you can fill with treats to surprise a loved one! Oh, and did I mention there are FREE templates included in today's post? Scroll down to download yours!💖
For my Valentine's Day decor this year I made this red hot lips pillow to add a pop of color to my studio. You might have spotted this red lips pillow in our last blog post where I shared the decor for my Valentine's Day mantel? Well, I absolutely LOVE how this pillow turned out, and it's one of my most fav DIYs to date! This lips accent pillow adds such a fun touch to any Valentine's Day decor, and they'd make great presents for your Galentines or BFFs! 👄
This year, for the first time ever, I decided to decorate my studio mantel for Valentine's Day! For the wall above the mantel, I had the idea to make a large balloon heart structure that would also double as a photo-booth backdrop. These balloon structures have been trending on the party scene and Pinterest for a few years, and this was the perfect opportunity to have a go at making my own!
Winter is the perfect time to get cozy and pamper yo' self. So I decided to make some gorgeous pampering recipes and DIYs (with video!) that are the perfect addition to a spa day at home! You can also use these DIYs projects to create a luscious spa pampering kit from scratch to gift to a loved one on Valentine's Day (or any other occasion). But it's oh-so pretty that you may wanna keep it all to yourself, and I don't blame you! 😉

Whether you're hosting a Valentine's Day party for your gal pals, a romantic dinner date with your other half or a fun party at home for the whole family, these party crackers are sure to bring a little "bang" to your love day event! 😉 It's a British tradition to have crackers at Christmas.
