Easy Valentine Bags!

Yep, still only posting pictures with my iPhone it's the easiest way to put them on here for now! But anyway, here's a group shot of all our Valentine bags we gave out this year!

Ella Bug is trying so hard with her letters! She is doing so well for a three year old! Plus we're going to like calling Ben, "Bem" now! The girls wrote out all their own Valentines, Lyla Bear scribbled more on her hands than the cards but no one cared they loved her one year old chicken scratch!
We bought a few different bags of candy and used ziplock bags and embroidery thread to split them up for each gift.
Then I looked up different quotes on Pinterest & personalized each persons Valentine bag using scrapbook paper, Sharpie paint pens and a regular black Sharpie!
I am also getting really addicted to using puff paint on things! For some reason I just love the way it adds a little something extra! We had to use a big bag for Gramy and Grampys, our little clear treat bags weren't gonna cut it for our number one fans.


Everyone loved their gifts and they were so much cheaper to put together ourselves than buying the same-ole same-ole overpriced valentines baskets for all our closest friends and family!


Thanks for stopping by!

  1. You have a very nice collection of valentines bags. Have you considered making garden bags? I'm sure you're also really good at it.

    1. Thank you for comment! Your service looks very useful! Would have been handy before yard cleanup this year! With so many fruit trees on our property we normally have to haul off our yard waste ourselves! However all of our vegetable waste goes to our pheasants! They have been enjoying the extra iron from our broccoli plants the last week getting ready for breeding/laying season!
