    paper cut, Tutorial, Valentine's day   |  3 Comments delicate wax doily valentines from scented candle stubs

    I heart snow days. Literally. Tuesday's blizzard meant spending Wednesday indoors having fun with Bird, eating frozen pizza and making all kinds of valentine fun, including these wonderfully dainty wax doilies. They are so delicate and elegant! Smell nice too. Most things come out of my craft studio covered in glue blobs and smelling like burning hair...these valentines must be Bird's influence. Hearts made from melted crayons have been popular for a few years now, thanks to Martha's tutorial.

    This heart-shaped cone is really easy to make and is a great way to share popcorn with someone special when watching a film, or why not make a few and fill them up with treats for sharing around a bonfire or at a party, or even use them to hold confetti at a wedding.
