Thoughts for Thursday - A Different Valentine

I can't believe Sunday is February 1st! That means Valentine's Day is right around the corner! I came across some cute ideas last year (in a magazine, prolly Parenting) for a little bit of a different kind of valentine. I thought they were too cute and wanted to share this one. I plan to do it this year for teachers, etc....unless I get too lazy....which is usually what happens! HA!

I'm Cocoa For You
Simply write a message on a card stock heart, stick it to a red paper cup with double-sided tape, and add a package of Hot cocoa mix. Too fun!

If you have any crafty or unique Valentine ideas, please do tell! You can leave a comment here, or email it to me so I can post all about it (and link back to you! ~wink~) in a later post!!

And in case you missed my "pssstt" comment yesterday @ the bottom of the post, I am planning a Valentine's Day Blog Party, here at The Gift Closet, February 7-14th and there will be giveaways! The theme will be "Sharin' The Love". Details are coming! ;)

AND, if you haven't already, please hop on over to MomDot and vote for The Gift Closet as "Best Breakthrough Performance"! Click here to vote.
I'll owe ya' one!!

    What a cute idea! As a teacher, I don't think I'll get anything that cute.

    Last year, I took three pictures of my daughter. In each one she was holding a piece, each one said "I" then "love" then "you!" And, I sent it to grandparents.

    They loved it!

    Family Fun Magazine has the cutest Valentine's Day ideas!! My favorites, A package of nuts with a note that says, "You're nuts if this is not your favorite valentine," or a cute pencil with the note, "You are write on Valentine" or a simple baggie of Teddy grahams, or Gummi Bears that says "Bear Hugs"

    Thought I would share.
