Valentine Spin Wheel Game (she: Darleen)

ByDarleen

Hello, hello! My name is Darleen, and I am one of the new contributors here. I stay busy over at Darling Darleen and with my shop Darleen Meier Jewelry. I’m one of those people who likes to go all out for each holiday and birthday. I tell myself I’m doing it for my children, but I’m realizing it might really be for me! So, I’m excited to share with you a Valentine craft, or more specifically, a Valentine Spin Wheel game that your child can hand out in the classroom or as a favor for a V-day party. It’s an adorable Valentine, and it’s interactive! I’ve been wanting to create a spin wheel game for a while. And Valentine’s Day couldn’t be better for it! It brings back childhood memories from spin wheels I used to cut out off the back of cereal boxes. We tested this game out with a little neighborhood valentine party, and all the kids had a good laugh.

Valentine Chocolate Sugar Cookies (she: Gina)

ByGina Kleinworth

Hi everyone! It’s Gina from Kleinworth & Co. again.

I’m back to share with you an fun little Valentine’s Day treat today. I absolutely love these cookies. Their fun Valentine colors…..the fact that they are chocolate. Love Love Love. I originally started with the mindset that these cookies would be frosted. But then as I realized that I had just purchased SO MANY bags of M&M’s with the intention of using them in baking. I am running out of time to make goodies for Valentine’s Day. Before long all these red & pink candies won’t be able to be used in my baking & there they will sit. So I scrapped the frosting idea, cut out a lot of time in the kitchen & added them to these fun Chocolate Sugar Cookies to make some really cute treats.

Valentine’s Day Flag Centerpiece DIY (she: Anne)

ByAnne

Happy Tuesday friends! I can hardly believe it is already February, let alone almost Valentine’s Day! I usually am not a huge decorator for the day of love…maybe a little thing here or there, but this year I have felt a little more inspired to do something. I say it is for the kids, but it really brighten’s my work space to have some pretties around. Besides, I know how much my daughter loves things to be a little fancy…a little special. So, I thought a simple Valentine’s Day flag centerpiece would add some flair to our usual empty table, making it special for the holiday.
