the heart of the matter

is ... hearts, of course!

there were/are a LOT of hearty projects going on in our house right now.
red and red is everywhere ;)







there are heart shaped (embroidered by big L) 
bookmarks for teachers


paper hearts created by little L ...
giving an old paper bag a third life.



 finished by big L





stuffed and laced up for display.


 treasures found by Little Red and Darth on their last walk with Dork 
(aka Eddie, household dog)






were "glitterfied"





and hung on our Solstice Tree (now turned into a Love Tree) for display.



big L has been hiding hearts for us everywhere 
and whenever I find one I add it to the love tree.


the stuffed paper heart crowns the top.


i also had the pleasure of running a v-day project at little Ls class last week.
we made awesome heart crowns out of paper plates.


these lovely creations were the talk of the school today and were worn during the prestigious v-day celebration at little Ls class.



and we also made some very special bookmarks for little Ls BFFs





i used instructions from "Handmade Home" by soulemama for the bookmarks and jumped over to my most favorite hands-on-kids-craft blog filthwizardry for instructions for the paper plate hearts.

I have two more hearty projects up my sleeve but I won't reveal them until tomorrow since they are not finished.
the heart angels (as little L calls Cupid) better work hard tonight to get it all ready for the day of love ;)

jump over to my blogger friends sites and join in the lovely fun :)

~ be well
