FROM FANTASY TO FÊTE: VALENTINE'S CRAFTERNOON

Bonjour mes chéris! Camille Styles here, and with Valentine's Day less than two weeks away, it's time to start thinking about how we're going to demonstrate our affections...

Why not invite the girls for an afternoon of sweets, bubbly and bonding over Valentine's crafting in requisite shades of scarlet and rose? Break out the scissors, glue, sequins, pipe cleaners, glitter, paint, washi tape and rubber stamps, and let the creative juices flow as you craft some cards to put a smile on your sweetie's (or bestie's!) face. A few little lovelies to make this party come to life:

1. heart matches 2. heart shaped balloons, Mignon 3. XO s'mores, Williams-Sonoma 4. Shakespear's Love Sonnets, Terrain 5. baker's twine, whisker graphics 6. pink doily, etsy 7. heart milk cubes, A Subtle Revelry. inspiration image: Martha Stewart

    This is for the air to expand into as you begin your twisting. Then let a little air out before you tie the end of the balloon. This should ensure that the balloon doesn't burst as you are shaping it.Balloon DecorationsThanks a lot.
