these just make me so happy

maybe because i made them, and i haven't made anything crafty in awhile.

nani had this great new year's resolution of having a craft night every month for the three females in our family: nani, ella and me.

since our first craft night was in january, we decided to have a valentine theme. nani just had all sorts of fabric and ribbon out on the table. i brought the stuffing and we thought we'd make some stuffed hearts.

this was the first stuffed heart i made...
then, i decided to make some stuffed hearts to hang from my chandelier. i loved this striped linen fabric...
they only took about 10 minutes each to make... just used embroidery floss to sew the two hearts together and ribbon at the top, stuffed them, and nani came up with the cute pom pom hanging from the bottom of the heart. i need to make a few more, but three was as far as i got this year.

hope everyone had a lovely valentine's day!
p.s.
i am so excited i just learned how to make my blog pictures bigger! but now my header picture doesn't fit - i'll be working on changing that in the next couple days.
