Sprinkle Milk Shots for Valentine’s Day

Sprinkle Milk Shots are my new fave way to drink milk. I mean, sprinkles are basically the edible equivalent of glitter, #amiright? We all know about my glitter obsession. And then there’s the white chocolate hidden under there and five little shots of milk are way more fun than one boring glass of milk. We’re all about the fun around here. It may seem a little odd for a grown woman of 19 to go the extra distance for ways to get our daily dose of moo juice, but if we’re not having fun, then what’s the point of life, #amIrightagain?

Onward.

The Best Valentine’s Day Gifts for Crafters

Here are my favorite Valentine’s Day gifts for crafters.

Picture taking:

The Fujifilm Instax 9 Intstax Camera is so fun to take instant photos to insert in scrapbooks, crafting projects and planners. I love mine!

Must have a cute, cute case to carry that Instax camera! I love this Flamingo Instax Camera Case.

For the planner:

My Webster’s Pages Gold Polkadot Composition Planner is my absolute fave planning tool. It comes with one notebook and you can purchase the calendar notebook.

For scrapbooking or memory keeping:

Pretty papers are essential for fun layouts and I love using them for die-cutting, too. 6×6 papers in fun Valentine’s Day patterns will make any crafter’s heart pitter-patter. I love this Pebbles Be Mine paper pad.

A cutting mat is useful to protect desks and tabletops while cutting all those pretty papers. A pink cutting mat is super fun

Can’t do any cutting without an X-acto! Love the soft grip on this one and, of course, the color!

Embellishments any crafter would love:

It’s no secret that I love pompoms and these Valentines Pom Poms make my heart flutter.

Super cute Gold Dipped Natural White Feathers make for fun embellishments!

There are SO MANY uses for Decorative Glitter Washi Tape! I used in on cards, in my planner, to attach photos and prints to my craft room walls. Limitless possibilities abound!

Craft Room Organization:

A three tiered cart has been so helpful in keeping craft supplies organized and at the ready. Mine is so handy and I love that it rolls to where ever I need it to be.

Just for fun:

Letterboards are all the rage and they are super fun to keep a crafter motivated!

Shabby Chic Valentine Wreath

Shabby chic is just one of the decorating and crafty styles that I enjoy. It’s not the dominant style I would normally choose but this Shabby Chic Valentine Wreath has been on my mind a lot lately. Actually, this rag bow wreath is not necessarily Valentine themed! It can be used all year round and with any shabby chic or rustic decor, in my opinion. Originally, I had planned on adding some felt puffy hearts but once I got to making, I liked the look without them. I tend to be a plain, no-embellishments, kind of crafter.

I love how this turned out and it goes so well with my Valentine craft room decor. Wanna see how I made this easy Shabby Chic Valentine Wreath? Click on through to check it out!
