love tea: tutorial

hello friends!

school hasn't started yet so i feel like i have endless amounts of free time.
what does any sane crafty girl do with endless amounts of free time you may ask?
well she crafts of course!
and that is exactly what i have been doing!
so be prepared for some tutorials and fun ideas for the next while.

today i am sharing a cute {heart} warming gift that is perfect for these cold months
and perfect for valentines day that is fast approaching.
i am calling it
...love tea...

- gently tear off the existing tag

- put a dab of hot glue on your cute shape
- stick the end of the string in the glue
- place the other cute shape on top (you may want to add another dab of hot glue)

- repeat for all the tea bags

- enjoy the cuteness for yourself or...

- make a cute card and add some {love tea} inside

enjoy!

adventuring we will go

i love spending time with clint.
it doesn't really matter what we are doing we always have fun together.
over the holidays we were able to spend time together e.v.e.r.y.d.a.y. and it was fantastic!
it was great talking about the future, looking back on our past two years together and enjoying the stage we are in right now, engagement. i loved waking up and being able to have morning coffee together.
i am so looking forward to that happening so much more once we are married. i loved being able to enjoy the stillness the country side with him after having the crazy hustle and bustle of christmas. we were able to go exploring after a fresh blanket of snow. there were so many critter and deer tracks. we even stumbled upon a deer resting but it ran away as soon as he saw us. i have the best exploring partner ever.
i love you clint and can't wait to be your wife!
