Yay it's Friday!

Now you've got a whole weekend in front of you that you can fill with oodles and oodles of Valentine crafts.

Let's start with food shall we? (guys like food anyway)

These cute little cake pops are simple to make and great for just about everyone.

How about a 5 minute cake in a mug for that special somebody? Or...make a bunch of these before watching a chick flick with all the girls!

You don't just have to give away chocolate on Monday. Why not bake some bread of muffins? Don't forget to wrap them up in pretty paper!

This is a popular trend this year with crafter and bloggers. You can either glue together your own candy bag topper with pretty paper and stickers, or create your own using your computer. Just print it out, cut, and either staple or glue your topper to the candy bag.

Now how about some flowers?

Use all those left over fabrics to make a dozen pretty roses and tie them all together with some red ribbon.

Here's another tutorial on how to make a cute felt rose. (and there great thing about felt it that...no hemming!)

You could also use these fabric roses for headbands and decorative pins. Just take the idea and run away with it!

I know I've shared this tutorial before, I just love it so much!

Here's another idea you could use to clean up all your scraps of fabric. Make some pretty heart pillows!

Here's girl who know what to do with those conversation hearts. I think that they taste like chalk personally...

Valentine Quotes and Pics

That's right everybody; that dreaded/exciting day is coming in just a few nighty nights!

Whether or not you have somebody special to celebrate February the 14th with, you can still enjoy the day.

Have a special someone? Do something with them; it can be a big deal like a day full of activities, but I find that the best times with Mike are when we sit around and do nothing but talk, watch a movie, or read together. Those are when the funny/special moments happen that we remember forever.

Don't have boyfriend or girlfriend? Well, you must certainly have friends who are boys, and friends who are girls. Spend some time with them. Valentine’s Day is about the people you LOVE. That means ALL the people you love. Show how much you care. Call home, call relatives from far away just to say "I love you". They will appreciate it more than you will know.

Still don't feel like hanging out with anyone and enjoying yourself? Then just run down to wall-mart and get yourself some chocolate so you can mope around while conveniently adding calories to your already "perfect" diet!

(no, don't do that)

Trip over love, you can get up. Fall in love and you fall forever. ~Author Unknown

Who, being loved, is poor? ~Oscar Wilde
