It’s not too late to do some simple homemade valentine’s this year.  This is one time DIY will cost you MORE than buying a box of licensed cards from Dollar Tree, but not much more.

Caleb and Dub are taking these: (Click on the photos to go to the source.)

I really like the “Yoda One for Me” saying.  Bwa ha ha.  And Yoda is my favorite.

Glow stick bracelets are 5 for $1 at Dollar Tree.  $4 for 20 students.  And color copies are $.59 each at Kinkos if you bring your own card stock. $1.19 on their cardstock!  Or print at home.  We bought a printer this year at Costco that takes their refillable ink cargtridges.  1 cartridge refills for $8 and there’s a $2 off coupon in the mailer that starts tomorrow :).

Heather is taking these S’more Valentines.  We bought the supplies tonight and made the top part.  We’ll package it all up the morning of, since I’m afraid the marshmallows and graham crackers would do bad things to each other if stored together long.

The snack size Hershey’s are 8 for $1 at Dollart Tree or $1.29 at Target.  The Heart Marshmallows are $3.99 for a huge bag at Target.  We had the paper and flower punch on hand already. We’ll also need some graham crackers ( in our pantry) and sandwich baggies (also in our pantry) and some tape or glue dots to put it all together ( in stash).

Here are some of my other favorites:
