valentines day
it's always fun to count down to those special days of the year.
with valentine's day right around the corner we decided to put together a quick and simple...
kiss me countdown
the perfect little treat for your kids or even your significant other.
the perfect little treat for your kids or even your significant other.
supplies:
bag of Hershey Kisses
cellophane - about 30 inches long
scrapbook paper
adhesive
the how-to:
-cut a strip of cellophane long ways about 4" wide
-tie your first twine bow about an inch down on your cellophane
-add 2 kisses and tie another bow
-continue until you have added 13 days worth of kisses
*in order to fit all 13 days worth of kisses be sure to keep everything real tight!
- download the tag HERE
- print the tag on some fun scrapbook paper
- trim and snip the corners to make a tag shape
- back in a coordinating cardstock
- punch a hole and tie to the top of the countdown
- (optional) use a glue dot to position the tag out to the side - othorwise it will just hang straight down
- start counting down on February 1st!
hope they enjoy all those yummy kisses...
be sure to give them a real one on February 14th!

Thanks so much for sharing I'd never heard of Group Deals and I love Bakers Twine...you saved me a bundle of money and I will have a great time playing with the goodies I get.

Hi, my name is Jason, and I'm a chocoholic.
(group replies, "Hi Jason")
As a self proclaimed chocoholic, my concern is that I'd destroy all kisses in a single sitting. So you're saying this is a lesson in self control, and a reward for achieving it. Nice.

Super cute! Laughing at the above comment, btw. Didn't know dudes were capable of being chocohoics!? LOL!!
Uhm..cute craft and REALLY cute background. Love you 3 J girls!
Thank you so much for the heads up on the deal! That is amazing!
LOVE it!
Thanks for the link to the twine. Unfortunately it says it's not even going to ship until the 31st!
That is such a cute idea!
This is such a cute idea! I love the little Countdown tag! Pinning!
Such a neat idea! I'm here through a party at Thrifty Handmade Days where Mique shared your blog. So glad I found you. :)
So fun, except my husband doesn't like chocolate. Maybe I could make it for him to give to me :)
Love this! My kiddos are going to love it too. Thanks for sharing.
this is adorable and so fun...my boys love kisses candy
I love this idea! My son has a major sweet tooth like his mom, so I will definitely have to make this and try not to eat all of them before the kids have a chance at it :)
made these yesterday with my kids. each child has their own hanging on their bedroom door. so cute!! thanks so much.
This is such a cute idea for Valentine's day! I'd love it if you would share these at my Saturday Spotlight linky party. :) http://angelshomestead.com/saturday-spotlight-2-features/
