Ice Cold Hearts

The extreme cold weather continues.  Thanks to Lucy at Craftberry Bush, Grace and I busied ourselves making lovesicles. 

So, though I don't love the cold weather...I certainly do love making things with Grace, especially heart shaped things.

I'm not sure what Lucy used to color her heartcicles but I used food coloring mixed in water.

I let nature do her thing and freeze our heartcicles.

Once they were frozen, I quickly ran outside and decorated our yard with some love and heartcicles...

before my fingers froze, forcing me back inside.

When I did come back in, to warm up, I found someone had stolen my spot. 

I let her keep my spot...because, contrary to this post, I do not have an ice cold heart.

Paper Heart Garland

One of the items on my Christmas wish list, that I provided to my husband, was jute twine.  My husband no longer questions my list and knowing that he could go to Home Depot and buy twine suited him even better.

My husband obviously knows the way to my heart...jute twine.

With my jute twine in hand, I made a simple garland to add to our Valentine's day decor.  I cut out some red hearts (by hand...can you believe it!), secured them to the twine with miniature clothes pins and strung it up.

I am thinking, I may even add 'I love you' in different languages to each heart.

Or, maybe I'll write, I love jute twine...er, I mean, my husband onto the hearts.
