I love to have fun with paper, food, paint, music and events and just being creative in all of it. However, I don't feel the need to be a perfectionist nor a professional in any of my creations. I wish I could have a blog JUST about the art of cooking, photography, sewing, art, mothering, jewelry making, card making, dancing, gardening, deep spiritual thoughts, decorating, poetry, party planning, baking.... and the list goes on but I can't. I don't think I was created with the ability to focus on one task. I like all of these hobbies layed out before me and the freedom to pick whatever I choose depending on the mood or time I have.

Creative Valentine's Day Crafts for Kids


Your child will enjoy these creative Valentine's Day Ideas. We are doing a three part series over at Inspired by Family for grown ups "Creative Love Notes" and I wanted to share the kids version here. So stop by again to see our other two projects we will be sharing this week. Tomorrows project is Valentines Day Bath Fun!
 
Follow along to catch all of the great Valentine’s Day post via your favorite social network :Twitter,Pinterest or Facebook and our readers preferred way via email.

You will need:
clothespins
alligator traced onto green construction paper
note paper
glue

1. I used the crocodile from here: http://www.edupics.com/coloring-page-crocodile-i17575.html and free handed it on my green construction paper. If you're not comfortable with free hand then copy and paste the image into your document and make lots of small ones to fit on your clothes pin.
2. Cut your alligator in half.
3. Glue half his body on the bottom part of the clothespin and the other on the top.
4. Take a small piece of white paper and cut it into a rectangular shape. Write on it and glue it to the back.
