I have been wanting to turn these branches into something crafty for Valentine's Day....
...I just couldn't find anything I liked! Last night I was reading this post on a friend's blog when I discovered these...
...Valentine's Shrinky Dinks! I knew they would be perfect for my branches! We had the best time during our snow day making our SD Christmas ornaments...so I knew the kids would be into them. Mary Reese spent hours coloring hers...
Banks colored for a little while and moved onto the Wii. Owen took over one of his pages...
I am always amazed that they go in the oven one size and in less than 3 minutes they come out a fraction of the size...
We punched holes in them before we baked them so we could string them for our Valentine's tree...
How fun is that...
While at Target we picked up a few of these...
...paired with a homemade treat, they make the best teacher gift!
