V-Day, with all its vibrant colors and accepted cheeseball flair, brings out the crafty in me. So life has been on the crafty side for Liv and me this past week. We discovered these fabulous window markers by Crayola (Walmart carries a large version); we cut, baked and painted the hearts (shown above) to our hearts’ content; and we made a unique version of this valentine for the man in our life (thanks, Monica, for sharing the idea!).
Happy Valentine’s Day to my dear friends. Pass along a hug or kiss, an email or blog post to warm someone’s heart.

So fun! Now, I want to know how you made those great red cookies hanging in the window? Did you just tint cookie dough and decorate with markers or icing? Eveything looks great and like lots of fun!

I absolutely LOVE my heart! It was great way to start the workday – finding it on my desk at work. Thanks Tredways!

I’m glad you like your heart, Jill! We had fun making them for our iU friends.
Monica, I wish I had taken pics of the valentine we created from your blog post — I think it’s hanging in Jeremy’s cubicle at work now. It turned out pretty cute. I used baker’s clay to create the hearts and puff paint for the lettering. See my latest post for the recipe.
