Suggestions for Valentine Crafts, Recipes, and DIY
Valentine’s Day is this week but there is still plenty of time to make or bake some treats if you’re feeling crafty. I hope to have one more craft tutorial for an easy gift and one more quick recipe for you before the big day. Until then I wanted to share some of my favorite Valentine’s ideas from both Pinterest and some fellow bloggers.
(Really, what did we do for inspiration before Pinterest?)

These are such great ideas! Thanks for putting this together!
What a creative list! I’m thinking I’m going to have to make the cheesecake brownies sometime soon…yum!
Those look especially good to me, too, Mer! Hubby is a huge Red Velvet fan, this would be a fun new way to get that taste.
The garland looks really subtle and pretty at the window. And I really like idea of baking a heart into a cupcake. That would be a neat surprise for the person you are making them for.
The subtleness of the garland is something I loved, too. So many places it could be used!
Some really cute ideas! If I was still teaching I would certainly be making some of these for the class!
These are so freaking cute!
ilike these and they can be used for party for gilr or boys that great idea
The heart cupcakes and the red velvet cheesecake brownies look so awesome! I’m headed to the store later to pick up some ingredients for these! Thank you for sharing!
I am going to make the Heart Cupcakes!!
Lots of fun and easy ideas for next year! The brownies look especially delicious!
These are really great! I love the hearts in the cupcakes!
