DIY: kids valentines: ipod heart candy cover

hello again.

today's post is short and sweet.

my husband just left for work (yes. he works through the night) so i am going to get my hulu on!

haha. i need to catch up on my glee, wipeout, and modern family.

speaking of modern family, did anyone catch wednesdays episode?

PRICELESS. i loved it!

well just so that you still get your project fix for the day

here is a fun project from family fun.

i am big into free printables, especially being a primary teacher

(primary just means i teach the really young kids a my church)

it is so easy to find a fun printable to make a cute little handout for the kids.

the kids love it because they are four and will love anything.

i love it because it is EASY.

anyways, i saw this post and thought it was a great idea for valentines day treats.

they just easily go over the message heart candy boxes.

genius.
