Adorable Homemade Valentines

January 30, 2011

I’m not usually the crafty one around this house, but today? I am.

I’m making valentines.

I might be doing the same thing as last year, but the valentines are so cute that you’ll do them for as long as you can, too.

I promise.

You see, Christie (do you not know her? because you should. get over there and get reading.) and Alyssa (I’m linking to them both because Alyssa took pictures at the front dor, which is adorable. And Christie took them with a black background, which is what I’ll be doing this year) made these adorable valentines, and I’m going to copy them.

I only got to make a few last year for Jack’s preschool. This year I get to make them for an entire kindergarten class!

Do you want to see how cute they are?

Of course you do. These are from last year:

I’ll take pictures of the new ones soon, but I wanted to get this idea into everyone’s heads in time for you to make your own!

My neighbor made super cute ones, as well. Same idea, but she adhered to the school’s wellness policy and used pencils :)

So, go follow the fancy instructions, let me know what you think, and send pictures if you try them! I’ll post them here!

Can’t wait to get mine in the mail. My lollipop from last year has either grass or mold growing on it. So I am going green this year. Isn’t that what “Going Green” means?.

I love this. I did this last year too but am going to have to go with the store bought ones this year…too many kids in their classrooms. Oh and I wasn’t sure I’d have my camera back in time.

If I had the time, I would SO make those! Boo loved those when we thought of doing them for her birthday party. Hopefully next year I will be more on top of things…

I love this idea Bec- Sunny may be handing these valentine’s out to all her kids at school. They’ll love it!
