Valentine’s Day Crafts

Happy Monday!! I’m back from a great weekend in Las Vegas where I attended a conference for my husbands office.

Zoltar for sale in Vegas, — I know what you are thinking, and the answer is no I came back home still being an adult 🙂

Somehow even with being a non drinker and non gambler,  and an almost 40 year old woman, I still managed to stay up waaaaay to late (were talking 3 hours of sleep here) while there!  I’m paying for it today by fighting off some serious jet lag!

Just a head’s up! Valentines day is 2 weeks from Tuesday!! If you haven’t already thought of ways to celebrate with the ones you love here are a few ideas previously published here.

I’m busily working away on a new Valentines Day Craft to add to the collection here… watch for it soon!

Vintage Postcard Pillow
Use Subway art for Candybar wrappers (printable from eighteen25)
Lollipop Treats
Charming Gathered Table Runner
Love, Kiss & Hugs Magnets
Magnetic Heart Shaped Shoe Clips
Be Mine Banner Tutorial
Cross my Heart Pillow
Easy Valentine’s Day Dessert Idea
Love You Banner
Freezer Paper Stencil t-shirts
Love Pouch- Holiday Chairbacker PDF Pattern

Also don’t forget to check out Rhonna Designs… she’s released a whole bunch of new YUMMY digital  images, just perfect for Valentines Day!

  • So many potholders! I launched a new pattern today just in time for Christmas. The new #PotholderParade pattern includes patterns for 4 different styles of potholders (swipe to see them all) and a matching dish towel. They are all easy to stich so you DO have time to make a set for holiday gifts. (Well, if you want to 😉) The pattern is 20% off with code POTHOLDER20. You can find a link in my bio. I’ll also add a swipe up to stores. Whew! (p.s. if you know me and get a potholder for Christmas act surprised 😂) .

  • One of my favorite handmade gifts to make for kids is a reading pillow! I made my first one almost 10 years ago out of polar fleece and gifted it to my nephews for Christmas stuffed with books and a flashlight! 10 years later it’s now one of my most popular patterns! You can grab it in the shop in PDF or Paper format. The pattern comes with 2 pillow sizes as well! Have you made a #readingpillow ? Who did you gift it to? Pattern link in bio. .

  • I am so excited to have a project featured in Quilts and More Magazine! ✂️ When I first started quilting it was always my favorite Magazine to pick up at the store. I can’t believe I have a project in it now. This little pin cushion caddy is super quick to make and would make a great gift for someone who loves sewing and quilting. The issue is in newsstands now. .

  • Looks like a nice size for a baby quilt right? Well it’s NOT SUPPOSED to be a baby quilt. It’s supposed to be the center block for our #justforfunquilt and it’s TWO TIMES TOO BIG! 🤦🏼‍♀️. Don’t know what happed to my brain this week. More explanation on stories. Oh- and don’t worry. The right block will be up on the blog tomorrow as planned. Also- next year for Halloween I’m going as a quilt with legs 😂.

  • I guess it’s time to transition the IG feed from orange to red 😉. Let’s talk Christmas crafting! 🎅🏼 🌲. I’m working with @officialcricut this holiday season to bring you loads of fun personalized gift ideas. First up this “believe” wood Christmas sign with 3D wood cut out. It was my first time to cut wood with my Cricut Maker and I’m so excited that it actually worked! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 It took a bit of trial and error but it worked! On the blog I’ve outlined how I did it , along with a few tips if you try it yourself.  Just use the link in my bio  then go to the home page. #cricutmade #cricutmaker #christmascrafts #handmadechristmas #handmadechristmasdecorations
