Sock Valentines

Who says adults shouldn't get to give and receive valentines each year? Not me! Here's a Valentine idea for those of you who will never grow up (and hopefully have the same goofy sense of humor I do...)! Oh, and I should also mention that the label to go along with these valentines is available RIGHT HERE  Instructions below...

Materials:

-socks
-cellophane bag (I bought a pack of 20 for $1 at my local dollar store!)
-scissors
-cardstock
-printer
-stapler/staples

Instructions:

1. Place socks into cellophane bag. Trim off about 2" from the top of the bag.
2. Print out "My Life Would Sock Without You" design onto cardstock.
3. Cut out designs and fold in half
4. Place folded cardstock over the top of the bag and staple in place.
Here's to never growing up!!!!! Happy Valentine's Day from Hoyby Crafts!!!

Valentine's Day Gift Jars

Valentine jars for each of my classroom assistants


A view of one of the jars


Here are the Valentine gifts I made for my fabulous teaching staff! I simply used glass, airtight containers I bought at a dollar store and filled them with cute, Valentine-y stuff (Valentine socks, lipstick pens, candy necklaces, chocolates, etc.). I then hot glued artificial roses and leaves (also purchased at a local dollar store) to the tops of the glass containers and added glittery letter stickers (bought at...you guessed it! Dollar stores rock!) to spell out each of their names on the front of the containers.

Happy Valentine's Day!!!
