I'm knee deep in crochet. Baby crochet to be exact! And my Mom and I, are getting ready for a Valentine's Day Craft Fair. In one week! So I thought, I'd focus on something for Valentine's Day. Something simple. Quick. And festive!
Classy Crochet, has been a favorite crochet blog of mine. For a while now. And I remembered, seeing this hat, last year. I wanted to make it. But you know, all sorts of things, were coming for my head! And a lot of things, just got lost, in the shuffle.
So what's more perfect, than this hat? Not much else! I figure this can be one of those, quick 2 week, CALs. So who's in?
This week, I'll say, let's get our materials. And print our pattern. I'll probably use some yarn, that I already have at home. Probably Red Heart. Since, more than likely, I'll be selling these next week! And then, let's make the actually hat. That's 15 rows. Totally doable!
Remember, if you need any help. Leave a comment, or send me an e-mail. Both work great! And let's get into the Valentine's Day spirit!!! ❤

Fabulous Friday #5: Valentine's Day Party for the Kiddos
I'm sure I told you guys, one of my goals this year, was to have more people over. To our home. One month, for the adults. One month, for the kiddos. Well, even if not over to our home, to plan an activity of sorts.
January was about the adults. We ended up, with a small group. And a movie, lunch, and casino date. It was fun. And nice to hangout with family. We saw a hilarious movie! And enjoyed each others' company. Next time, will definitely be something at the house. Maybe a dinner. Or game night.
But February, folks, is about the kiddos! And I wanted to keep it low key. Invite over the littles. Maybe have some spaghetti. Some goodies. And a few crafts! So here are a few ideas, that I've found floating around...
Some little bracelets. Fun and easy! These look like they are made, with that foam. You know, you buy it in little sheets like felt. Felt would work too. And some puffy paint, beads, jewels...fun and easy craft!
Here are a few good ideas. From the top, you just need some construction paper, pipe cleaners, feathers, google eyes, maybe some pom poms, ribbon, clothes pins, paper doilies, and paint. Honestly, all left over items, from our Kiddo Christmas Party!
These pom pom monsters are the cutest! Again, I'm pretty sure my Mom and I, have all the needed supplies. Hello! We're crafters! And a bit of craft supply hoarders. But I think that comes with the territory of crafting! :)
These little hearts look like fun. Cut out some hearts, let the littles have fun, with the hole punches. Tie them up with string. Quick and easy. I think they will look fun, in a window.
And you know my Mom and I's LOVE for owls. A paper plate, construction paper, and some eyes...make the perfect owl!
How about a few arrows? Some straws, construction paper, and either ribbon or streamers...will make for a ton of fun! I think the boys, will love these!
And this little pup. Isn't it cute? I just love all the hearts. And how the kiddos can really have some fun, creating something like this!
And I think this would be fun to recreate. Maybe just for me. Or maybe with the adults. I think you could use little hearts. Or even fingerprints. I think this would make for a fun decoration. Maybe I could make something similar, before the kiddos come over.
And last, a fun "gift" of sorts, to send the kiddos home with. Wouldn't this be fun? You know, instead of the pre-made Valentine's from the store...
Just a couple of fun ideas. All quick and easy. I didn't have to read through blogs. Or search on Pinterest. I just did a quick Google search. And came up with these goodies. Also, they are very affordable. A pack of construction paper, pipe cleaners, a few beads, google eyes, and other embellishments.
We have a little box, with this sort of supplies. And I always go through the clearance section. After the holidays. Or go on a little shopping adventure, at the Dollar Tree. So many ideas. For very little money. To have so much fun, with a group of your favorite kiddos! ❤

Simple Sunday 3: Pom Pom Heart Necklace
It's just shy of a month, until Valentine's Day. It's cold outside. I can't find these guys on TV. There are no races to watch. My team is out for the season. And I dearly miss watching these guys. There's not even a good movie on this channel! What's a girl to do on a Sunday like this?
Did I mention Valentine's Day? Not my favorite day of the year. But one that is fun to celebrate with the itty bitties in my life. And being back home, has made it really fun. You know to celebrate holidays. My Little Cousin J, makes my day! She gets so excited over the little things. So does my Little Buddy J.
So I've been looking for something fun to make them. A little bit of fun, a dash of silliness, and tons of love! Guess what I found? Every little lady's dream...pom poms, hearts, and a necklace!
Isn't this so cute? I thought so. Jess has so many GREAT ideas! I've been following her blog for years. Probably from the beginning of her blogging days. And her ideas never get old. This little necklace is just the right amount of fun, sass, and Valentine's Day! I'm not sure how I missed it 2 years ago...when Jess posted it. But I'm definitely making some, for the cuties in my life. I might even sneak in a few for an upcoming Craft Fair. ❤
