Valentine crafting

Now, I know that you expect pictures with this. I'll see what I can do. Remember that I'm still learning how to use this new camera.  Hold please . . .

I cut out some hearts from the Cheerios box in the recycling. Cardboard hearts x 22 (plus extras for goofs) is a bit much to ask a child to cut out.  I knew that she'd never get it done without yelling.  She did the "to and from" on the back, glued the sequins to the front and I did some glitter glue for some flare. 

We started these yesterday when I came home early. We made 22 perling bead heart sun catchers. K- beaded some on her own and there were a bunch that we made together. (She did the top or the bottom. I did the opposite side.)

The glitter glue is drying. I'll get things assembled tomorrow. I feel good that we can cross that off the list.

Smiles in my day:
-  We were all home and off on snow day together.
-  The valentines.  They are done.  K- loves them and that is what is most important. 
-  We had TV dinner this evening while doing a Storm Chasers Marathon.  While crafting valentines, I cooked a meatloaf in the crock-pot.  I was able to finish up with some whole grain chicken herb rice and creamed peas.  It was lovely and quite a special special.  K- thought it was the neatest thing.
-  An old friend found me on a search on the internet.  We haven't talked in a very long time.

Have a wonderful day!
