O'fish'al valentines

Happy Valentines Day!
I hope you guys are celebrating with your family and friends in some small way.
I am not the biggest valentines day fan. I think its kinda cheesy as an adult (although i did get a super sweet note from my hubby this morning).. but, as a kid I think it is so much fun. Making valentines to give to your friends at school is total blast! All that candy and sweet notes. Love it!
It was a close toss up between the heartbreaker valentines from MADE we did last year and these adorable goldfish valentines I saw on pinterest this year. I decided on the goldfish because they seemed easier but I couldn't find the clear box things and I also wanted somethings sweet in there too. So, I bought some mini-chinese to go boxes from Hobby Lobby and Kinley filled them all up with goldfish and swedish fish. A little sweet and a little salty is right up my alley.
This was so fun because she really did so much of this all by herself.

I hot-glued a saying to each side and they were ready to go!

Kinley was so not done valentine-ing by then so we used some puffy conversation heart stickers and cut out hearts to make some homemade valentines.

I also used my silhouette today to make Kinley a valentines shirt. I went with pink and black because those are the colors of the month for her school.

Also, this is my favorite valentines decoration and something I can still get excited about as an adult.
