fabric treat bags for valentines

this year, i decided to make little bags out of fabric for my kids

to give away to their classmates on valentines day.

each one was filled with candy,

tied with a black ribbon, and

adorned with a heart shaped tag.

i'm not much of a sewer,

but they were super simple to make!

it cost just under $5 for all the fabric,

and $4 for the ribbon.

i already had the paper.

so--under $10 for all the supplies for the

bags--not bad, considering how many of them i made!

by the way, i bought all of the supplies, 

including the candy from walmart.

i used my cricut to cut out the hearts.

each child wrote their classmates names on the tags.

oh, yeah, and did i mention that i have 

3 kids in school?

yeah, i made 75 of these little suckers!

i made sure to take some pictures, so that

when my kids are teenagers, and they tell me 

that i don't love them, i can use these pictures as

evidence to the contrary.

well, that, and i wanted to show you.

isn't this fabric cute?

i loved the colors.

now, excuse me while i take a nap...
