Classroom Valentine Party

I have moved out of decorating the house for Valentine's Day mode and into classroom Valentine's Day mode.  Here are some fun and easy ideas that are on my list for classroom decorations, crafts, and snacks.

Sweet Bee Buzzings made this heart garland by sewing together felt hearts:


I am thinking of using my Silhouette to cut out a bunch of colored hearts from paper and the stitch them together to make a paper heart version to hang around the classroom.  At least in between some regular crepe paper streamers.  Of course what I really want are a dozen different types of streamers reaching across the classroom like all of these at WIP Kits:


I have showed you this vintage valentine wreath before:
For their craft, I am going to bring chipboard cut into wreath shapes and let them decorate them using all of the valentines that they got from their classmates.  If some of them aren't ready to use their valentines, I will have some supplies so that they can make these woven hearts from Childmade:


Now if I could just decide on the snacks.  I have about a dozen I want to makes and am going to have to narrow it down.  Valentine Confetti is high on the list.  Do you have any snack suggestions?

Oh Darling Cutting Files

There have been a TON of printable valentines, and I love them all, but this is the first free digital cutting file for Valentine's Day that I have come across:


Design House Digiral is giving away the file download for this cute Valentine for free!  These cute treat bags and cookie envelopes, along with other files, can be cut with your Digital Cutter (ie Silhouette).  Talk about an easy way to hammer out a classroom full of really cute handmade Valentines!!

Paper Heart Art

Fort & Field's cute heart paper straws were featured in an Etsy treasurey by Bay'b Elfant.  See the cute straws:


And see the collection of cute heart themed things:


Right in the middle is this cute framed heart art:


Sugared Sweet Designs made this gorgeous heart out of a ton of little hearts.  It almost gives it a feathered look.  The same idea on a smaller scale would make a cute valentine.  Another idea for the class Valentine's Day party!
