DIY Valentine’s wine glasses with the Cricut Maker

February 5, 2019

Roses are red, violets are blue… I don’t know about you guys, but I’m that person who has themed wine glasses for every holiday/time of year. I’m also that person that collects tacky city wine glasses when I travel.

Valentine’s Day was however one holiday that was missing from my collection, so I decided to make my own using my Cricut maker. (I’m on a roll with these Valentine’s themed crafts!)

In general, I’d have to say that glassware (specifically wine glasses) are one of my favourite things to create when it comes to Cricut crafts. I just love how quick and easy they are and how a little bit of adhesive vinyl can transform a glass.

Wear your heart on your sleeve: easy 3-step DIY elbow patch sweater

February 3, 2019

Can you believe it’s already February? Time sure does fly! As much as I hate wither (which we’ve established many times already), I love February for two reasons: it’s my birthday month (yay!) and Valentine’s Day.

If you know me, you might be laughing at the last reason because to be completely honest I am not a very romantic person and we don’t really do too much for Valentines. So you’re probably wondering why I love it now, right? Well, it’s because of everything pink, red and all of the cute shapes like hearts and the delicious candy. (Side note: Conversation hearts are my favourite and if you follow me on Twitter you’ll know I’m absolutely beside myself that there aren’t any this year.) I’ve also always thought of Valentine’s as a day to celebrate everyone who you love; not just your partner, but your friends, family and pets too.

In the spirit of Valentine’s Day (or Galentine’s), I’m back with another super simple 3-step DIY that I did using my Cricut Maker – a heart elbow patch sweater!

Recipe: Easy Valentine’s Day Cookies (Gluten-Free)

February 10, 2017

Ok guys, maybe I’m super lame but I love Valentine’s Day. Not because I’m a romantic, but because I love the colours, decorations and themed stuff! (Seriously, theme parties are my favourite.) I just love all the cute stuff. Or maybe it’s because my birthday is the day before, who knows.

When I was growing up that Valentine’s was always really fun and something that I always looked forward to. We were taught that Valentine’s was a day to celebrate all the people you loved — friends, family, pets, you name it! We would always make cards for everyone, some sort of themed craft and of course, cookies.

Because who doesn’t love cookies?!

Galentine’s Day Etsy Gift Guide

February 2, 2016

I haven’t done an Etsy treasury in a while, and I thought there’s no better time than Valentines. (Or rather, Galentine’s in this case!) I’ve always been a big fan of Valentine’s day – and not because of the typical reasons.

Ever since I was a little girl we were raised to love Valentine’s day and spend it celebrating all of the people we love, including our friends. So to me, the holiday isn’t a ‘romantic’ one and has always been about celebrating everyone as opposed to that special someone.

One of the many reasons why I love it so much is because let’s face it… Valentine’s Day stuff is cute as heck! I’m a sucker for anything pink and red to begin with, add in some hearts and I’m sold. (Seriously guys, it’s really not hard to shop for me for any occasion!)
