Valentine’s Bug
Happy Valentine's Day! My favorite. :) It's become a bit of a tradition for me to bring a little heart-shaped box of chocolates to each of my coworkers on Valentine's Day. But there's one woman there who really isn't a fan of sweets. Every year when I'm passing out the treats, I'm at a loss

Finally, some crafty business!
My friend had a crafty valentine's party today, which kicked me out of my creative lull. It wasn't for lack of inspiration that I haven't been making things–but because I injured my back a few weeks ago! In fact, I had to cancel the art show I'd been scheduled to hang for February. Sad! Having

Valentine’s Candy
I ♥ Necco hearts. Especially the yellow & white ones. But for some real decadence, check out these creations by Vosges Haut Chocolat.

Valentine’s Cookies
First, let me say how much I love this Pearl Dust! After the background icing is set up & before you start with the other details, just take a soft paint brush and dust it all over the cookie. It gives them this lovely sheen. This is my favorite house ~ the little heart shingles
