I know we're WAY early on this little project but a sick daddy yesterday meant a tired mommy today which meant school was skipped and that left a whole day that needed filling.
A jumpstart on E's class valentines it was.
I have loved Martha's little matchbox gifts since I first saw them and our first school Valentine's Day is the perfect occasion to pass them out. Forgoing pieces of paper with princesses and jedi's holding hearts and waxing poetic sounded pretty good too.
We set to work emptying matchboxes, cutting paper, taping, trimming and filling the boxes with chocolate hearts and stickers. We may have enjoyed a taste or two ourselves.
They aren't done quite yet, hand written tags need attached and we'll tie them up with string to keep them together for passing out, but good progress has been made and a good chunk of time filled so I'm all together pleased. I'll be sure to share the completed goodies soon!
