Happiness Is Homemade – Lucky Decoration Ideas

Welcome to Happiness is Homemade #467 Lucky Decoration Ideas! Keep those spring and St. Patrick’s Day ideas coming!

Mardi Gras is Tuesday, and no matter where you live you need a king cake to celebrate! This recipe from Cindy’s Online Recipe Box looks delicious, and you can make either a cinnamon king cake or a cherry cheese one with it.

With Valentine’s Day behind us, it’s time to move on to St. Patrick’s Day and spring decor. Mary Jo over at Master”pieces” of My Life has a ton of great ideas to help you incorporate green decor into your home for St. Patrick’s Day, including beautiful tablescapes, vignettes, and DIY decorations.

The ladies over at Building Our Hive made this adorable fabric banner for St. Patrick’s Day. It looks so easy to put together. If you’re not a sewer, you could use fabric glue or even hot glue.

Beth from Creatively Beth made this adorable pot of gold under a rainbow using Dollar Tree cauldrons. They would make adorable little gifts for your child’s classroom this St. Patrick’s Day.

Speaking of classrooms, Julie from Sum of Their Stories made an adorable crocheted pencil case using granny squares. The squares are quick and easy to make so they’re perfect for new crocheters.

Happiness Is Homemade – Happy Valentine

Welcome to Happiness is Homemade #466 Happy Valentine! Happy coming Valentine’s Day!! Great ideas for Valentine’s Day and fantastic Valentine features!

This Week’s Features

If you’re looking for inspiration for Valentine’s dinner this Wednesday, look no further. Ann from Ann’s Entitled Life set up this fabulous Valentine’s tablescape that you can tweak here and there to work for a romantic night in or for dinner with the family.

Kristie over at Love My Little Cottage is a talented artist, and that shows through with her “mush love” flower pot painting! She said that’s she’s become obsessed with painting these cute little mushrooms and I can see why.

Radha over at Magical Ingredients shared the perfect Valentine’s breakfast recipe, strawberry ombre pancakes.

While we’re rolling with the pink colors, I had to include this beautiful growth ruler made by Lee Ann over at Creative Moments.

Since I live down on the Gulf Coast where Mardi Gras is huge, I had to share these white chocolate pretzel rods made for the holiday by Premeditated Leftovers. This year it falls on my daughter’s birthday so it’s going to be a day of parades, parties, and fun, and these delicious treats will fit right in! Fun fact: Mardi Gras parades and fanfare did not start in New Orleans! It started in Mobile, Alabama, then moved west where I live, then on to New Orleans a bit later.

DIY Love Container For Valentine

Valentine’s Day is near, you may want to give some sweats to your loved ones, but you need a special appearance for the sweets to impress your loved ones. A handmade container will impress more than a store bought. It will not cost you a lot as my idea is recycling some used things; in this case I used Pringles can and a decorative tissue paper which I get from a party that is still clean. It’s a cute way to show your love, especially those who love saving environment. Scroll down to see how I made this Love Container for Valentine’s Day.

Things To Prepare

It’s a short list of supplies that you need to prepare. Try to replace it with something similar to my material if you don’t have the same one. Just use whatever you have in your craft stash. Let’s see what are the list supplies which used to make this DIY Love Container for Valentine :

  • Pringles can
  • Decorative tissue paper
  • Decorative paper
  • Pink jute rope
  • Rose ribbon ornaments
  • Paper glue
  • Clear glue

How To Make

To show how much we love our loved ones, . Anyway, just follow these easy steps on how to do DIY Love Container for Valentine :

1 . Make sure your Pringles can is cleaned. Wrap your Pringles can with a decorative paper. I used vertical lines with shades of pink decorative paper.

2. Cut a tissue paper on the picture that you like to use. Mine is a drawing of a Eiffel Tower in France with roses and macarons. I love it, it’s vintage and romantic.

3. Now paste the cut-tissue paper carefully to the wrapped-Pringles can. Use paper glue.

4. Then you can decorate the lid. Take some rose ribbon ornaments and paste it one by one around the Pringles lid. It goes well with the tissue paper pattern of roses.

5. Last touch is to draw or apply some glue to the side of the picture of Eiffel Tower a shape of heart. Use the pink jute rope to to make the heart. Isn’t it pretty?

I think it’s pretty enough to hold your yummy sweets and use it as a Valentine’s gift to your loved ones. A handmade gift plus sweets? That’s surely showers of love! By the way, it’s easy to make, right?

This Love Container project is my contribution to The Sustainable Craft Challenge Blog Hop hosted by Julie with her beautiful blog Sum of Their Stories. It’s a craft challenge with a sustainable principle behind it which comes in different theme every month. This month, the theme is “LOVE” and last month was “WARM“. I love to be part of this challenge as I love to upcycle things into something new, pretty and useful.

Happiness Is Homemade – Love Is On The Way

Welcome to Happiness is Homemade 465 Love Is On The Way! Always have a difficult time choosing from all of the great posts that all of you share here on the party. I’m so glad that I get to choose during this month of love!

This Week’s Features

MaryJo over at Master”pieces” of My Life shared 5 fantastic Valentine’s decorations that can be made with moss, like this fabulous XOXO wreath. I love that all of the ideas are unique and move away from the standard red and pink of normal Valentine’s decor ideas!

If you’re creating an at home Valentine’s celebration like we are, this heart napkin fold creating by Debbee of Debbee’s Buzz would be the perfect addition to your tablescape of love!

These heart shaped rice krispie treats, shared by Lenny of Fat Dad Foodie, would be the perfect addition to your child’s classroom Valentine’s Day party. You wouldn’t even have to send an extra Valentine for each child because these cuties would be made in their very own heart shaped cookie cutter that they can take home!

I’m sure that all of our crafty friends out there have some scrap wood lying around somewhere. This DIY pallet photo holder made by Regina from Saved from Salvage would be a great way to use up some of that wood that’s just collecting dust. It’s a piece of decor that you can change up for every season and holiday with ease!

Julie over at Sum of Their Stories made this recycled heart art canvas was made with things that she found in her craft stash, and I’m sure you have everything you need to make your own already. I can just picture a large version of this as a photo backdrop for a wedding (in your wedding colors) or for parties. Wouldn’t that be cute?!

Favorite Pick!

How To Make Easy Valentine’s Treats Decoration

Do you celebrate Valentine’s Day? You want to have a simple celebration but enough to bring up the Love vibes? Then my Easy Valentine’s Treat Decoration will help you prepare one of the elements for Valentine’s Day. Have a cute simple treats on Valentine’s Day is forgiven, pink shades are not tacky, so combine these two things, then you’ve got yourself a valentine’s treats which able to decorate your Valentine’s Day simple celebration.

I made a very easy Valentine’s Treats Decoration from a cute Valentine’s container which made out of a Pringles can and some pink and blue marshmallows. I think marshmallows are perfect for Valentine’s Day treats beside chocolates and candies. Marshmallows are sweet, soft, yummy, come in many soft pretty colors and usually looks adorable even in just a regular marshmallow form. Don’t you agree?

Things To Prepare

Like always, I use things that I can find on my craft supplies and always try to repurpose or recycling things. I don’t intentionally buy new supplies unless it’s an essential part of my project that I don’t have. Let’s see what are the list supplies which were used to make this Easy Valentine’s Day Treats Decoration :

  • Small Pringles can
  • Decorative paper wrap (mine is with heart pattern)
  • Pink ribbon
  • Clear glue and paper glue
  • Pink paper straw
  • Marshmallows in white and pink

How To Make

An adorable Valentine’s container with marshmallows is super easy to make and serve. The Valentine’s treats can be a decoration element as well. Anyway, just follow these easy steps on how to make Easy Valentine’s Treats Decoration :

1 . Prepare a small Pringles can or any other similar can. Make sure it’s cleaned.

2. Cut the decorative paper wrapper to the size of the can and then glue it to wrap the Pringles can.

3. Next is to paste a small pink ribbon around the top and bottom of the Pringles holder with clear glue. Your Valentine’s Treats holder is done!

4. Now, take some pink and white marshmallow and thrust it one by one to each pink straw.

5. Lastly, arrange all of those pink and white marshmallows on straw in the Valentine’s holder. Super cute for Valentine’s treats decoration isn’t it?

This easy Valentine’s Treats is great for Valentine’s Day decoration. It can be one of a great Valentine’s treats decoration on the Valentine’s treat station in your home. Mixed it with other treats or maybe even make more of this Valentine’s treats and put it along your Valentine’s tablescape as a center piece. Be creative with it.

fun gifts for the Valentines Chef

Last week was a hodgepodge of ideas but this week promised to be even more so lol. First up the coolest Valentines Gift Idea for the cook in your life. The Painted Apron tells us “

This month I’m making gifts for the cook or chef, his and hers, Valentine and Galentine! They consist of a pot holder filled with a kitchen utensil, a towel, chocolates, hand painted Valentine cards, a recipe and heart cookie cutters tied on with ribbons”

Valentines Table Setting

Valentines Day Tablescape in pink

And surprisng literally no-one who attends my bloghops, A Valentines Table is my next feature. Anne’s Entitled Life has not just some sage advise but alo a little table inspiration for the Heart Day.

Red Velvet Waffles

Our Tiny Nest was truly inspired this week. Taking a Red Velvet craving and turning it into a very tasty Valentines Day Breakfast treat.  “with Valentine’s Day approaching, I was in the mood to bake something red velvet inspired. These red velvet waffles are so indulgent and are perfect for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day or anytime you just want to spoil yourself or someone you love. The best part, they are made with red velvet cake mix and topped with a homemade cream cheese whipped topping you can prepare ahead of time.”

Bake and Decorate
