Yep! I have a question for you. How are each of you getting ready for Valentine's Day?
Have you made a plan yet? YOU have less than a week. have you made a list? are you making or buying cards, fashioning paper flowers, floating candles, cooking a delicious dinner or baking a special dessert? think about it.. why not save a few $$$ and do it yourself... corral the kids into helping! they'll be soo soooo thrilled to be part of the BIG EVENT! cut hearts out of paper & scatter them over the dining table or kitchen island, light some candles & add paper doilies to your dessert plate!
I know one young adorable lady who is about to make a new pair of pj bottoms for her honey. We'll be doing that in class tomorrow.. She has lovingly taken apart a pair of favorite & very tattered pjs saving the elastic & drawstring.. We'll can make a pattern out of the old pair & quickly make a new pair for her wonderful husband.
Another little sweetheart is planning a big event for Saturday night.. a Valentine Couples Dinner Event in costume.. we'll be taking her wedding gown apart to refashion it into Alice's RED QUEEN! what an exciting & ambitious venture.. it'll be sew much fun! adding some red panels, fancy trims & red hearts..
Personally, I think my honey deserves a fabulous dessert.. imaging a tiramisu! made one during the holidays & it got rave reviews! not sure what to make for dinner.. waiting for a wish list! we'll definitley have roses & candlelight ... maybe out to a movie!
Whatever you plan, hope your day is filled with lots of love from the special people in your life! be sure to include everyone in your plans.. everyone can use a little bit of extra love & attention.. on Valentine's Day & all year long!
