heart garland
one day last month, novi and i were playing with salt dough and cookie cutters. she ended up cutting out lots of heart shapes.
when she was finished playing, i baked the hearts she had made, in anticipation of valentine’s day.
heart warming
i wasn’t sure if we’d send them out as valentine ornaments for her friends or make a mobile or garland. regardless, i knew they’d be fun to decorate with paint, so she painted away.
once the backgrounds were dry, novi decorated them with polka dots and other designs.
then we strung them together on a red ribbon, knotting each one along the strand.
they ended up making a really cute valentine garland for our house! a shorter strand would be cute on the hearth.
happy heart season!
