Liesl’s {Junk in their Trunk} Cousin Blocks - This is such a creative way to teach your child their cousin’s names and letters of the alphabet!

Last week, I started working on a hand-painted ceramic mug. Here is the finished product:

As soon as the beginning of the New Year came and went, I’ve been seeing all sorts of Valentine’s day treats and crafts to make. I wanted to make something simple, and one of the blogs I follow recently posted her Candy Cane Hearts.

I thought these were SOO cute! However, I didn’t want to buy candy melts and tried to think of something I already had on hand to use. It didn’t really work out…

I put the candy canes and the marshmallows in the oven for 350 degrees for 3-5 minutes. As you can see, the marshmallows did stick, but they stuck to the wax paper and didn’t hold together like candy melts or chocolate would have. I might try yet with chocolate Hershey kisses.
