Valentine Giveaway

Geesh, slowly but surely I am figuring out blogger, but I dont know why my pictures didnt appear in the order I downloaded them. Anyways, this post will just be all screwed up and backwards. So, instead of what was supposed to be first, this is second. I am doing a Valentines Tree this year and since I have no ornaments, I have made a few, this in one of the little glitter wreaths I made for it.


Now, this was supposed to be first. I joined a few Valentines swaps, some are whimsy jars, matchboxes, and decorated heart boxes. I have made a few of the heart boxes and had a ball doing it (other than glue gun burns), my partners havent received them yet, so I dont know if I gained their approval. The one you can win is below. Just so you know, I am still learning to get the hang of them, so you may find a few mistakes on it. But, I am going to fill it up with all sorts of pink and red goodies....not gonna show you on here, that will be a surprise. And since I had to eat all the candy, I will replace that too (with better stuff). Just leave a comment and I will pick a winner on Sunday.



Oh Yeah, and these I made to go under my Valentines tree (this picture is actually in the right space). I have a few more sets and will be listing them in my lollishops soon. I have the bodies made, but they are headless right now because we have the slowest mail delivery in this town that ever was!!

Mary, this is wonderful! I'd love to enter, you make the best stuff, each is cuter than the next~
I think the funniest thing ever is to hear you mention glue gun burns... they are brutal because they're sticky on top of it all!
Now I know how much pain also goes into your magnificent creations! :o))

I saw your cute Valentines on flickr and had to come look! The story about the clocks in the first post cracked me up. My two boys like to tease me like that too. I need to find some clocks!! LOL

You are very talented. I found the story about your daughter amusing. I have a 9 year old daughter who has similar sensibilities. This Valentine's Day will be my 10 year anniversary. Your charming giveaway would be a nice treat to celebrate the special day. Any chance you would share your resources for finding crafting supplies. I was wondering were you found the heads for your valentine's people. That is not the sort of thing you find at a Michael's' or Hobby Lobby. Best of luck to you.

Mary, when you are creating your posts in blogger, if you switch to "html" instead of "compose" mode, you can cut the code for your picture and post it where you like. Found that out today. Love your christmas collection and the sweet things you make.
