WhipperBerry-Valentine's-Day-Printables

I love dressing up for the holidays, but I don't like to go over the top. Valentine's Day is one of those holidays that sometimes can get a little too pink and frilly for me. Some years I'm totally into it, other's I'm not. It just depends on the year.

This year I'm into it, but I was wanting some decor that had some class, maybe a little edge to it… Not so sappy sweet. I decided that creating some printable art work was the ticket and with a few other added elements could create a fun Valentine's Day display…

I'm LOVING the black & white trend these days, especially the black & white stripes. I thought it could  be a stylish backdrop to some fun love notes to display. I printed them and put them in some $3.99 frames from Target (they don't seem to have them online, but… I promise they are in the store) and then went to work creating a display to fit the mood.

I wrapped a wire floral wreath in yarn and dressed it up with some fun decorative tacks that I found at Hobby Lobby. PERFECT!! I added a smaller heart print in a decorative Nate Berkus frame from Target and it looked wonderful!

​I took my favorite deer silhouette and antler candle sticks and wrapped them with yarn as well.

That added a little spunk and tied the whole display together. Then I printed a fun TRUE LOVE black & white printable banner to dress-up the mantle…

It turned out so cute! I just love the simple, understated polka dots with the bold stripes!

I also have a black & white stripe alphabet that I created for Skip to My Lou earlier this month. It's super cute and it has the entire alphabet so you can create any saying you want!!

Hello Whipperberry friends!  Jenn here again from Clean and Scentsible.  It seems like Christmas was just yesterday but Valentine's Day will be here before you know it!  Today I'm sharing these fun Valentine's Day popcorn pops with you – they're a quick and easy way to spread a little love!

Ingredients

  • 8 cups popped popcorn {this is approximately 5 tbsp. of unpopped kernals}
  • 3 cups mini marshmallows
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • red food coloring
  • 3/4 -1 cup Smarties {these are the Canadian Smarties which are similar to M&Ms in the States!}

Directions

  • Pop the popcorn and place it in a large bowl {I actually ended up using 2 bowls so I had more mixing space}
  • Heat the marshmallows, butter, and salt in a large heavy saucepan over medium to low heat stirring continuously until the marshmallows are melted.  Add food coloring by drops to make your desired pink color.  I just wanted mine a faint pink so I only used about 5-6 drops.
  • Pour the marshmallow mixture over the popcorn gradually, mixing it well.  You can use a greased spoon to do this but I found that it was easiest to grease my hands with butter to mix. {The butter should help to protect your hands from the heat but make sure it is not too hot!} Add the candy.
  • Shape into balls or use a heart shaped cookie cutter if you would like to do hearts.  If you are using the cookie cutter, grease the inner borders and press the popcorn inside the cookie cutter until your shape is formed. Press popcorn firmly together once the cookie cutter is removed to hold.
  • Insert sucker sticks.  For mine I used the basic sucker stick and then added a paper straw over top of it to give it extra strength.
  • Wrap each ball in plastic wrap.  Makes approximately 8 {3 inch diameter} balls.

There are lots of fun ways that you could package them up – add some baker's twine, tie them up in a cellophane bag, or add a cupcake liner and some washi tape!  Feel free to get creative – I always find that the packaging is the best part! 🙂
