For, You, Valentine!

Tomorrow is K and B's Valentine's Day Party at pre-school! They have NO clue what Valentine's Day is but are excited that they might be getting some candy. They aren't sure why they might get candy but are pumped anyway! They are taking their friends some candy as well. Here are our homemade V-Day treat bags.

Red for the boys

(Brady totally wanted blue. But when given the option of just pink or red.....he quickly accepted that red would be a-okay!)

These bags came in packs of 3 at Hobby Lobby for $1 something. I just ironed on each child's first initial using WonderUnder and some cute material.

Pink for all the girly-girls.

And some sweet teacher gifts too.
FYI.......I would not recommend this little project for the faint-hearted. These bags.........well, they melt if you barely touch them with the iron. And, the WonderUnder would not fuse when I attempted to place a cloth between the bag and the iron. Needless to say, it was a VERY stressful little endeavor.....and I did burn holes in at least two bags, which I carefully covered up with a little repositioning of the letters. Other than that, they turned out super-cute and make very inexpensive personalized gifts!
I am now going to go burn off all of the chocolate that I ate as I was stuffing these little babies. Treadmill, I really dislike you........but here I come!
