 And you open it and TADA there is a card inside lol BE MINE!
 Open the card and it says Happy Valentines Day. I don't know why this makes me soooo happy. I love when he comes home with things from daycare, it means alot.
 Here is the progress of a blanket im making. There are other pictures of when i just started on an earlier date in the blog. I should be finished with it by now, ive only been working on it for like a month now... not all the time tho but hey... i always finish a project no matter what so it WILL get done lol
 Up close

Valentine Scarf

 My Valentine Scarf!!!  I used the  yarn YARN BEE, WHIMSY BULKY color SPRING BLOSSOMS. It took me two skeins to finish this with a little, i should say barely any left over, at $5.39 a skein. I couldn't resist, i just love the colors, they also have more colors in this collection that are just as pretty.
 Do you like the little hearts? I just sewed them on using gold trim i found on sale at hobby lobby for a dollar. I had to buy a big ol' yarn needle though, but it all worked out because i just love it.
 I just love these colors, i think the gold makes it. It brings everything out, and makes it more adult looking rather than a kids scarf... what do you think?
 Another picture showing the length <3

Owlies, Beanie, and Pineapple Squares

 SOOOO can i ask you a question? Do you like my valentine owlies???? :D i love them. I love the heart eyes <3. I got the idea from one of my favorite bloggers Dawn Sparks. Here is the link to her blog. http://dawndavis.blogspot.com/ Im not going to lie, she has the coolest blog ever!!! And on top of that she inspires me :) I hope your reading this and you like my owlies because i give you 100% credit.
 Here they are all in a row, they like to hang out up on my bar.
 The purple mixed one lookes like he was having some attitude
 Chilling out and talking about the weather, its been a really pretty winter here in Texas!!
 My uncle asked me to make my aunt a pink and purple beanie, and since i had some scrap yarn i decided WHY NOT?
 AWWW the little pom pom on the end is sooo cute, i really think she will like this. Perfect beanie to wear on Valentines Day
 This is called a pineapple square, i got the pattern out of an old Crochet World magazine i found stuffed in my closet. I didnt do a perfect job but i really like how it turned out. You have to be really picky to notice my mistakes... and who cares anyway mistakes means it was home made from the heart!!
 I used pink and maroon sparkle yarn, i really love these two colors together, im going to make 18 more plus the two i already made to turn it into a throw. If you want to find these colors i used the brand I LOVE THIS YARN and i got it from HOBBY LOBBY
 OH and it took my like two hours to make the dirst square and 1.5 hours to make the second, i think the time will shorten as i get more used to making them. Granted i didnt acutally time myself... so i could be exagerating HMMMMM....
A close up of the sparkles, i just love it, Yall have a nice day ill be back soon.
