I'm looking for a Valentine's Day idea. I think I'm going to have my 5 yo do something with orange tictacs for his class. I found this template site. I may try to use the 3-D flower idea in a modified way and have it hold the tictacs. You may be able to use this idea too for either the card as it is intended or to hold a small treat.

I like the idea of the flower cards, and all our circle ladies would be able to make them!

How about starting seeds in containers? Nothing says spring more than something growing.

Another good idea - thank you!

My Girl Scout made napkin rings each month for our assisted living home. Some were beaded, foam, colored, paper, fabric, etc. that reflected that month. At the end of the month they could be thrown away when the new ones were taken. We made enough of the paper ones for new ones daily, but the beaded, croched, plastic canvas... lasted longer.

There are some great ideas here.

Another thought is to make flowers (carnations are the easist, I think)out of tissue paper.

We did this for a dance at a senior center and everyone seemed to love it. The flowers all looked the same, but we called them corsages for the women, and boutonnières for the men.

This would work well if they are having a valentines party.

Let us know what you decide.

How about Spring Fairies? They are very simple and cute. Here's a link to the project:

Just found out yesterdy - we need to make 110 tray favors. I don't know how many ladies will be at the meeting. Maybe 16? And we'll have to finish the project in about 90 minutes. And we need them for the following day. Maybe I should decide what we're doing and start making some ahead of time!!! I appreciate all of your ideas!
