We did see a sweet idea over from Kim at Mothering with Mindfulness and decided to make our own heart-shaped bird treats. We cut hearts out of cardboard, covered it with sunflower butter and then coated it with birdseed. We hung them from a tree near our front window so we could watch the birds enjoy their treat.
We also decided to make some heart shaped 'stained glass'. The idea is from a craft Finn and I did a couple of years ago when we made Easter egg stained glass. You can find the instructions there. Super easy and looks cute. However, please excuse my very dirty windows shown in this picture!! Egad!
Have you done any sweet Valentine's Day crafts? Finn is home sick from school today, so we may browse pinterest for some some ideas...
pinterest is a slippery slope for me, once on it's hard to stop :) Hope finn feels better!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the heart-shaped bird feeders. Maybe we will do this to give to friends as a valentine...
ReplyDeleteYour feeders look great, thanks for the shout out :) And the stained glass heart is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteValentine's Day is creeping up quickly this year. I can't believe it is already (nearly) mid-February! Finn's valentine's look amazing! We have been busy working on Fiona's valentine's too -- look for a future post!
