The Valentines season is upon us!  My absolute favorite time of year!   Ever since I can remember my Mother has celebrated valentines day in a special way with us!  It was always about candy, cards, crafting and celebrating.   So, it’s probably no wonder why I’m a children’s lifestyle stylist today.  I always try to make crafts that are super easy, not a lot of materials, and no glue (or hot glue guns) – kid friendly.

This cupcake flower craft is no exception.  The materials are cupcake wrappers, construction paper and glue dots – that’s it! We made this cupcake flower into a gift topper – but you can use them in other ways like stringing them into a garland to make a valentine decoration, put a magnet behind them to hold your valentine photos/cards or even make them into a Valentine Card.As with any crafting session, the best part is getting together and spending time together, what better time than the season of love!

Happy Valentines Day!
