Back for the fifth year in a row...


Valentine Airplanes!
All three of my kids have done these easy valentines for their classes over the years. And they keep showing up on their must-do lists for Valentines celebrations...I try to introduce other things but my three will hear none of it. All you need for each plane is a roll of smarties, a stick of gum, two lifesavers, and a rubber band. Easy breezy.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE those valentine airplanes...only wish I would have thought of something so cute. We're sporting the 74-cent Power Rangers/Disney Princess (not in the same box, mind you) from Party City. Not at all fancy, not at all cute. How perfectly clever of you!
