Red and Pink

   All this red and pink is making me giddy!  I want to snuggle up in front of the TV and create....  Instead, I'll be bringing these items to ballet class today.:)  It's kind of like TV, except I get to watch my little sweetie dance- even better.  (except I have to sit on the floor- bummer)  At least there will be pretty music...  


   This week-end these cupids will be getting a "silver" bath.:)

   Mandy made this for me years ago and I treasure it.

   I am having a ball with SWAPS!  I will show more pictures later (can't wait!) but I don't want to ruin the surprise for my partners...

   Such a fun time of year!  We may make some melted crayon hearts like we did last year.  So fun!  Have you ever made those?  Don't throw away your broken crayons!

   I am in such a good mood that I think I will host another GIVEAWAY!  Yippee!  The book below has wonderful craft ideas for a full year.  Even Valentine's Day!  Leave a comment if you're interested and I'll pick a name on Sunday!

    That looks like such a great resource for parents and children. We would love a chance to win it. Have fun with all the red and pink, I think I have the fever for it too.

    Cute little bag with thingie hanging off it. Speaking of thingies, one of those cupids looks a little vulger. Is that what I think it is??
    I am guessing that you are making a garland maybe?? I want to make a wreath Joyfullness style. Love hers!!

    Hi Lori
    Looks like you will be having a busy weekend 'bathing' your cupids. I wouldn't know where to start! I look forward to seeing them in their new silvery glory. The bag with the heart print fabric looks gorgeous. I have never seen melted crayon hearts. Please show how you do them.
    I love plate that Mandy made you. It's so special.
    Your giveaway book looks great. Please can I enter?
