Valentine’s Day Fun

valentine flower blue3Valentine’s Day will be here before we know it, so I thought I’d share some quick and easy crafts. To make a lollipop flower, cut out four hearts about 3″ tall from construction paper. Punch a hole in the point of each heart. Layer all the hearts on top of each other so that the punched holes line up, add a little glue if needed, and then stick a lollipop through to make a center and stem. For a fuller flower, layer with six hearts.???????????????????????????????

This second valentine craft will add a fancy touch to your cup of tea. First, cut out two small hearts (I used a cookie cutter for my template). Tape a teabag string between the hearts, and glue the two hearts together to cover the end of the string. Write a saying on the front and you’re all set to drop your teabag into a mug of steaming water.

???????????????????????????????Amy has been busy choosing Valentine’s Day cards for her friends.valentine trio blueUh oh. She has one extra. Should she give a second Valentine to Ricky or to Craig? If you’ve read Amy’s Choice, you’ll already know who she ends up going with to the Fall Harvest dance. 🙂ValentineDanceTime

    Love those old timey valentines. The heart flower is so cute (love the idea of using a lollipop that way. 🙂

    Happy Valentine’s – thank you for your kind comment. I recognize the Neddick light in your banner now that you tell me you are from Port Clyde. All the best to you.

    That last valentine looks oh so familiar. I’ll have to dig out my mother’s scrapbook 🙂 (Of course they are from my era, not my mother’s…) . Vintage always makes a great post.
