Add a Little Extra Flourish to Valentine’s Day

Quick & Simple magazineYour Place or Mine?
Surprise your loved ones with simple valentines wrapped around their dinner napkins. Cut out hearts from colored paper, then use rubber stamps and ink pads from Michaels to stamp on a few cute images with greetings to match. We paired a stamp of a cup of joe with “I like you a latte.” Punch a hole in the top of each heart, thread with ribbon and tie around napkins.

Nuts for You
Hit the grocery aisles for a festive, budget-friendly centerpiece! You’ll need two vases, one that’s clear and big enough to hold the smaller vase. Fill the smaller one with water and a bunch of light and dark pink carnations, and place inside the larger vase. Fill up the space between the vases with red pistachios!

For photos of these two craft projects, plus more fun ideas for Valentine’s Day, check out the Feb. 12 & 19 issue of Quick & Simple magazine or visit quickandsimple.com.
