There's nothing more loving in my view than a box of homemade, edible delights. I mean, taking the time to say "I Love You" or "You Matter" with a box of sugary things, makes for a pretty special gift, don't think?! :) Our contributor Gillian from Crumbs of Comfort Cake Design thinks so too. Check out her recipe for the most pretty and scrumptious Valentine's Heart Cookies below.
I love thinking up new ideas on how to re-purpose printables. Take a sheet of printable scrapbook paper + some heart favor tags, for instance - the possibilities are truly endless! I hate waste also, and have used the off cuts of the paper to embellish some pretty cute Valentine's Cutlery Pockets ! Step-by-step below...
Nice to start the week spreading the luuurve, right?! :) Crissy from Crissy's Crafts has done it again - Simplicity + fabulosity + some cute printables, all bottled into one super cute Valentine's Day Gift or Party favor = LOVE POTION . ♥
OK, so we're all geared up for Valentine's here and will be bringing you some super fabulous posts in the next few weeks! This is one super easy and tasty DIY party favor or gift to make for classroom friends, teachers, neighbors or to embellish you party dessert tables!
I'm a sucker for easy recipes (pun intended) and there's nothing easier than these Valentine's Heart Lollipops - Wait for it...Made with left over candy canes from Christmas! How cool is that?! :) I saw the idea a while back on Pinterest , and just had to try it - We always get tons of candy cane left over from Christmas and this is also the perfect way to use them up! My kids got involved in the making of course, and fun was had all round - Bonus, for when you're stuck indoors due to cold weather! ;)
Today more than any other, is the day to spread the ♥ and sweetness! And I have for you some real party photos that may do just that - They come from our sweet customer Gillian, who in turn sent me some ♥ yesterday when she wrote me the sweetest email: "Hello again Bird! Your printables are so gorgeous. ...feel proud that you put a smile on so many peoples faces. Just looking at all your gorgeous designs and pics gives me a lift!"
I (Crissy) had a small surprise tea party for my girls to celebrate Valentine's Day . My oldest daughter's birthday is on Valentine's day so most of the time we overlook Valentine's Day. This year was different, we had a Valentine's party for their girlfriends but I wanted to do something just for us! Hope you enjoy, and can find some last minute inspiration for your own Valentine's Day Celebrations !
Chocolate Cake with Creamy Ganache Recipe
Ok, so I have a confession to make. I'm a chocoholic. And so are my offsprings... So what better way to say "I ♥ you" on Valentine's day than with a (big) slice of the good stuff??!
This ADORABLE Valentine's printable poster was sent to us by another designer, Jennifer from May Details and its just too cute not to share! Plus, we see a LOT of girly Valentine's Day Party printables out there, so this would make a real nice card for little dudes!
For sometime now I have been in love with vintage style, so when Bird contacted me asking if I would like to style a party using Bird's Party new Vintage Valentine's Day printables , I was in heaven! Bird designed the most adorable party printables that match exactly with what I had in mind!
DIY Vintage Napkin Holder for Valentine's Day
I (Crissy) have a thing for all vintage things lately! That is why I decided to make this super cute vintage napkin holder for my Valentine's Party . This idea can also be used for a wedding or a garden party, or a pretty handmade gift or party favor idea!
One of my resolutions this year is to create simple but totally cute parties that can be easily achieved by anyone with the simple use of some fab party printables! So the idea of a " Cookies and Milk" Valentine's Day Party seemed really appropriate to showcase Bird's Party latest Sweet printable party collection for Valentine's Day !
