Valentine's Day sneaks up on me every year! So this time, I'm trying to plan something in advance...or at least more than the night before!

These window hearts (made from melted crayons) would be a fun project for littles: 

And I love these little pouches that can hold candy or other small treats on each bedroom door or chair:

I also like to use Valentine's Day as a day to give little tokens of appreciation to some of my friends - it doesn't carry the weight of Christmas or a birthday, so small things are just a fun surprise! 

One of my favorite gifts I've received was a tiny map of my state with a heart embroidered around my hometown. There are lots available on Etsy, but it's also easily done with a printer and some red thread! 

Someone also gave me a Valentine's garland one year, and it's really fun to think about them as I bring it out every February. This literary one would make any bookworm happy!
