Homemade Valentines




As I browsed for Valentine cards and treats for Sonja’s first Valentine exchange at school, I couldn’t believe my choices! Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, Mickey Mouse, etc. There had to be something that wasn’t a blatant and cheesy advertisement for Disney! I thought, Sonja and I can sit down and make something ourselves. It couldn’t be that hard, right? We bought construction paper, glitter glue, Tootsie pops, and pencils. The idea was to make a little heart flower using the sucker as a stem, and the pencil as a little bonus gift I guess. Not so easy, and not as cute as I thought they would turn out, but it was a fun little project for us to do together.
