Sweethearts Candy Box Frame

January 27, 2012 By Dealicious Mom 4 Comments

Here is a simple and sweet craft for your little ones just in time for Valentine’s Day.

My son made me one of these last year and it has a permanent spot on the fridge. I cherish it and think it such a creative gift.

Materials:

Individual Sweetheart conversation heart boxes with clear, cellophane heart cut-out on front; enough for each child

small photo of each child,

strip of self adhesive magnets

tape

Simple Steps for Making a Sweethearts Candy Frame:

Start with an empty box of conversation hearts (w/ the clear heart on the front)
Take individual pictures of each child or have a couple handy. Cut the child’s picture out and insert it into the box so that that it will show through the heart shape window in the front.
Tape the picture to the inside of the box to secure it.
Add a strip of self-adhesive magnet to the back of the box and this makes an adorable refrigerator magnet and great keepsake.
Glue some of the candy hearts on the box to decorate if desired.
You may want to tape the top of the box shut to protect and secure the picture.

Valentine's Day Craft Family Chic posted this simple step by step tutorial on how to make this simple Valentine’s Day craft. All you need is some wire (even a clothes hanger would work), yarn and wire clippers!

I am thinking you can make any word you want but I LOVE what she did here! The extra yarn at the end is a cute extra touch.

Kids names might be fun too in their favorite colors…

Oh the Nostalgia of Bite Size Cookies! EASY-BAKE Ultimate Oven Giveaway – Closed

December 1, 2011 By Dealicious Mom 96 Comments

After 20 or so years of waiting patiently, the christmas gift I have been wishing for for finally came! For many, many of my childhood years I yearned for an EASY-BAke Oven and last month my dream came true! I am not sure I should be telling you all that upon opening the delivery box containing the oven, I let out a very ”child on christmas morning” scream. Too bad we did not get it on camera…

Excited would be an understatement. This EASY-BAKE Ultimate Oven is COOL. The new updated version does not even need a light bulb! The inside heats up to 375 degrees but the outside barely gets warm to the touch! Plus, the new design is so hip. How could anyone resist it!

Of course, I had to try out a recipe or two before handing over to my neice (well maybe not handing it over as much as her prying it out of my hands…). I decided to try these Red Velvet cupcakes. So simple and who would have thought I would have ever been saying I made Red Velvet cupcakes even if it was in an EASY-BAKE oven.

I think it goes without saying that the EASY-BAKE Ultimate Oven would make a great gift for that special little girl (or boy!) on your list! Buy it on Walmart for $35 (retail is $49.99)

Also, I had to share:

Now there is a new way to have fun with EASY-BAKE! The all New EASY-BAKE Cupcakes! app lets you make, bake, decorate, eat and share yummy virtual cupcakes right from your iPhone®, iPad® or iPod touch®.

For me, it is not Thanksgiving until my boys bring home a Handprint Turkey from school. I love them! They really make me think about what I am thankful for… my family of course!

Here are some cute handprint turkey crafts that some people pinned on Pinterest that I thought were worth passing on to you all.
