Cute, Inexpensive, and Kid-Friendly Craft: Candy Heart Wreath
I don’t know why (really, I don’t…) but I seem to do a better job of crafting with food than cooking with it. My M&M Christmas Trees and Berry Centerpiece are examples of my random food crafting. And today, I’m going to keep this trend moving forward with a Candy Heart Wreath. Unlike most attempted…
Printable Pokemon Valentines
Oh, Pokemon. You’re there when I wake up, there while we eat breakfast, there when the kids get picked up from school, there when it’s bedtime…and basically there every single second in-between.

DIY LEGO Movie Valentines with Free Printable
You know what I did differently this year? I did my kids’ Valentines early.

This year, though,…

How to Make a Washi Heart (Super Simple Craft!)
Earlier this week I shared Claire’s button heart craft. While she was working on that, I was working on this – a washi heart! I have a bunch of Washi tape just hanging around. Like the buttons (and pens, and stickers, and scrapbook paper…), I just can’t seem to stop buying it. I told myself…
